CiTV & Ministry of Mayhem thread

Yes, someone else who likes The Terry and Gaby Show, can't stand Des and Mel, the only time I did watch it was when they had Tim Vine as a guest, as he was very funny and according to someone on Digital Spy, she is pregnant.

Though I am in Year 12 myself and only about one day a week I can watch Terry and Gaby, which sucks. Though it made me laugh when Danny Baker said that someone had sent an email with a picture saying that their cat looked like Hitler.

Anyway back to CiTV.........

Daytime TV is get up and watch the end of Lorraine whilst having breakfast, Trisha, This Morning till 11, Terry & Gaby till 12 whilst flicking back to this morning during breaks, this morning again at 12, my sister's now got me into charmed so that on livingtv+1 at 12:15, des & mel at 1, moving day & wish you were here today from 2 (nothing else on!), Puffin's Pla(i)ce at 3:05 ish, CiTV (whilst flipping around) from 3:15, whatever at 5, neighbours at 5:35, home & away at 6, then I'm usually out to work for the night.

Yes Melanie is pregnant. 3 months so. She announced it last Monday, the first live show back after christmas.

Ministry will be interesting with 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin, the man that walked off the SM:tv set before it went live after seeing the rehersals for the show! He's supposed to be playing Cakey Sk8. It will be fun to see if Stephen tries to pie him!

And Andrew as for Swag's bags, I was thinking the same, and the way that Andy & Gail kept putting the sacks back looked as though they were worried too!

Anyone see the clock appear before the titles? The camera men have been in shot a few times also.

I love the set. It is huge and colorful and really nice.

I have watched this show since the beginning and it is much better now although I think they need to sort their target audience out. First they have a coloring in pictures thing and then they have blazing squad on. The studio audience are obviously not in that 4-10 range which they are supposedly aiming at.

I wonder how much they are paying these extras like the telephone operators to be in it. It does seem like a very high budget show to be honest and they are giving away lots of prizes.

I was thinking that, Shaw. Surely they know they can put CiTV there with 4 shows that would probably get higher ratings around 800, 000 - 1million instead of the 500, 000 MoM gets.

fanoftv, I don't know how you do it! I love the TV and all, but every half an hour or so, I have to jump up from the sofa and start running around or my eyes will get totally spaced out.

I can see they are trying to milk TutenStein for all it's worth, first by describing it as "the show everyone's talking about" (yeah, cos it's so bad) and by turning the toilet into a Tuten Shrine! Not sure what to think really, but I'm sure the producers know themselves it isn't very good. Still they are making up for it as they must have lsitend to me- from next week they are showing Angry Beavers- one of the things that made SM:TV so watchable in those early days. In addition to TutenStein & Spongebob, shame is ain't repalcing TS.

Ont he show itself, a few more minor tweaks they are definatly making the show more watchable. Loved the way the German Scientist got Steve Austin to show his middle finger to Stephen, not very often you can get away with that on kid's TV! Noticed the carrier pigeon was nowhere to be seen this week as well, probabally realised that it was getting boring.

I woke up late today! I set the alarm clock around 1:00am and I always automatically have to set the day for the next day, as I normally go to sleep before 12midnight, so I didn't realise! I ended up waking up at 10:00am and missing half an hour of MoM.

I wasn't so sure at the start, but it got better. I'm still loving the "fun" feeling it has. I don't like Holly's hair straight, its better curly!

You have to love that scientist, "It's fact, it's totally fact".

'I'm just spoofing you off'

Only just started to watch it back. Been a lifesaving course all day.
The only bit I saw was the start up to Tutenstein.

Have the audience gone back to been 10-12 year olds after last week 12-16 age group? They are screaming, but higher!!!

The start seemed very written and produced. Last week they came on after the menu, Stephen was twirling and kicking, Holly was jiving, and Michael was doing the dance, but this week they all were doing along with the Blazer Squad. It was good how they fitted Ray into the Blazin Squad line up, though it all seemed too written. And then the Tuten-shrine. As pointed out by James they are trying to sell it, but I think this is a step too far. Last week, the three of them on the sofa with Ray coming out of the toilet dressed as a mummy was great.

It just lacked something that last weeks show had gained, I hope the rest of the show was better than the start.

What with there being no Premiership replay this week there's a full Sunday morning line up on CITV today from 9.25am. No doubt with live continuity from Andy as well?

I didn't see any presenter between How2 and Art Attack.

MoM is definitely improving week on week...that's totally fact!!

I agree that the beginning felt a bit too scripted but it was only the opening of the show and from what I saw (not all of it admittedly cause I went out) but the rest of the show had a much more 'live' feel to it!!

Interesting to see how it does ratings-wise this week.
