This is Vile.Thankfully I caught up with a Winners and Losers Channel 7 episode I missed out on due to working back late and being out when that was on Tuesday
Show seems alright, Ed Kavallee is a champ…
The editing however is subpar.. totally missed whether Jesse Martins story was true or false.. just not good enough
Might watch it tonight-bet it’ll rate in the middle or quite low.
this show look’s terrible!
Oh, i thought Reginald D. Hunter was going to be involved in the first episode?
His name has certainly been mentioned and i definitely saw him in the promo.
Given the staid formula (Peter Helliar should ask for a cut), Reggie was the only reason i’d be willing to give the show a go.
@ DAN – haters gonna hate…
Ed Kavalee is better than this.
On second thought – after Donkey Courtroom, maybe he isn’t.
Spicks and Specks – the sport version. Almost the same set up in this show – a host, two team captains, two sporting stars (instead of musicians) and comedians. Nine obviously couldn’t buy the original so they’re making do with a copy.
I have no idea how it will perform. I just know that I won’t be watching. If it had a different host, I may have given it a go.
This program will work well for nine! but I think it would do much better if hamish and andy was to host it!…. they need this show to boost the numbers, the footy show and this will do well for their thursday lineup.
@ Dan, it is not just an AFL show, it is a panel show that covers all sports.
This could be okay. I like some of the personalities they’ve assembled and the premise has legs – but I’m not going to watch it. I simply dislike Eddie Everywhere that much.
Why does Ch9 insist on putting that man in every f****ng program they make?
I’d bet my house that without him this show would stand half a chance outside Melbourne.
I have this dreadful feeling that the power-plays and drive-by shootings involving the Ibrahim families is nothing more than an audition for a new kind of reality show the 9 Network is behind… and plan to screen in the Thursday 8.30 timeslot as a replacement for Between the Lines…
which was a replacement for the Million Dollar Drop…
which was a replacement for something else that didn’t work.
Where does it say it’s an AFL show? It covers all sports doesn’t it?
Try.
@D@GP – It’s properly called a handball!
I don’t want to just shout “Fail!” but I can’t see this doing well outside of Eddie Central. Give me an ‘F’…
Looks like a more colourful and sporty version of the White Room?
looks great, solid group of people they’ve assembled!
This is in the contract as a filler to make the overall Tony/Ed deal acceptable to an accountant – wow aust tv is purile
i hate AFL with a passion they should bring back the test pattern while this show is on in sydney and non AFL states it would rate better than any AFL show ever will
3 2 1 : Kaboom!
Not Between the lines but Go! has a double ep of Survivor tonight didn’t see that reported anywhere.
Pass.
