Nobody's answered the most important question...

What about Eggheads!!!? Shocked


Let's hope it's axed, it's crap.

It's great. No frills, just questions. Just what most tv quizzes lack nowadays.

And it's a fix. The Eggheads get the easier questions every time and the challengers always get obscure questions. None of them are really that clever, and they act very smug at the end. What's the jackpot at now, £70,000?

Get rid of it!

I don't see why this one team get to appear every week on their own show. They're not even anything that special.

The Eggheads, they can't simply give an answer to a question, they always have to go in detail about there second cousin who went to a certain place and that's how they know.... or something like that anyway!

There are far better gameshow formats out there then this surely!

That's what makes it - and shows like In it to Win It, unwatchable for me.
