Hypothetical

I can see why some people wouldn't like this show, it's very random and crazy but in my opinion that's why it's so funny! There is always a great selection of comedians on it too!!

While James and Josh are funny on other panel shows (would I lie to you, QI etc) Hypothetical just isn't funny and neither of them can raise this show to those levels. At an hour long it's actually painful waiting for a genuinely funny moment to happen. Gave it a go but have given up now, it's mediocre at best. The Dave channel really needs to try a lot harder to find a replacement for Taskmaster.

Seems like the guys on the show are having a nice time but really not enjoying it. Contrived, enineered and the opposite of what's it's meant to be.. competition between 2 teams? Sadly, not for me.

I love James acaster and really like Josh Widdicombe, when he's not pushing an agenda on The Last Leg. The fact they're close mates adds to the show also.

The premise for the show isnsolid, but the quality really does depend on the guests and whether you like them or not.

So don't expect to like every episode but it's worth watching.

Although I will say that it seems to be the same current crop of "Dave" comedians doing the rounds so if you're not a fan of Taskmaster, Ultimate Worrier, Judge Romesh, Dave Gorman's new one (i forget the name) and those types of shows, this probably isn't for you.

That this basic premise is from the short lived Josh Widdicombe Podcast on XFM? Love James Acaster and I wish he did even MORE!!
