I was quite disappointed with todays show. There was no song at the start or end, and since the show finished at 12 I thought the song would have been on part of it- why don't they use it anymore? I thought time was the problem, but an extra 30 minutes makes no difference. Other bad points- Double trouble was back, I think this game is really boring now. They spent longer at the end announcing who had won the competition, and there are still no 'Next week' menus, or Gunge tank or Thankyou desk. Plus, out of the top 5 funny doc moments, number 1 wasn't the funniest one I have seen. Also, the blue panel on the balcony was still creased- why don't they take these down? They don't need them anymore as there are never any presenters or the hyeenas up there now.

Good points are 'Mrs Lee', Ram Ray with Ray pretending to ride a bird, and the 'Cakey Sk8' wall had finally been cleaned.

Is there any way of getting the song back on? It really made the show unique. I have emailed them before about this but they don't reply and don't put the song on, and still use the really short titles. Rolling Eyes

It was this time last year the show was given a new look, do you think there will be one in the near future?

Instead of emailing MOM on their usual email address, why not email Ged Allen or Vanessa Hill at Foundation TV - The executive producers of The Ministry Of Mayhem.

I was dissapointed with MOM on saturday, they were given an extra half an hour for what.....another programme!. King Arthurs Disasters now fills up most of MOM's studio time along with Drake and Josh and Spongebob, i was hoping with an extra half an hour they would use it for more studio time instead we have another programme shoved in out faces instead!. I know that sounds harsh but it seems like MOM has less studio time these days and i was hoping that with the extra half an hour we would get more studio time, i hope they think about this and take away King Arthurs Disasters and use the extra half hour for a sketch or another game or something!.

ITV has scrapped plans to link up with multichannel broadcaster Nickelodeon for a new kids offering and is set to launch its own channel instead.

Well, that's it man, game over, man, Game over!

Seriously, CITV is as good as dead now.

Not really, CiTV might be in the shít a bit with the 3.30pm-5.00pm slot, but I couldn't help notice a few things. When ITV4 launches witht the CiTV thing during the day, it will probably break the BBC's monopoly of kids channels on Freeview (only the FTA ones, not the TUTV ones) meaning that it has a good chance of success there. Plus also note that ITV Plc made £200 Million worth of profit within its first year, meaning that they can do it themselves really, they have instant access to the archive and they can get shows cheaply from other Broadcasters if they wish.

Another thing was that Charles Allen did mention that they were trying to gain full control of GMTV (Disney owns the last 25%), meaning that if ITV took full control of GMTV, then he said he would intergrate CiTV into the GMTV slot, a problem for CiTV being that it can't broadcast any earlier than 9.25am where as the BBC can broadcast when they like.

Couldn't believe it when I saw it this morning, UTV have now started to add UTV branding to CITV trailers!!

I just happened to catch the end of one this morning (still with the network voiceover) but with a spinning UTV logo appearing at the end!

I'll see if they continue it durning the week and try and get a cap of one or two.

No Stephen Mulhern this week due to the Harry Potter thing instead we had to suffer Peter Andre guest presenting. Joe Pasquale was the guest but hardly did anything.

Mr Lee was off on his holidays again, so it was Mrs Lee, all be upstanding for Mrs Lee....

I wonder if we'll ever see Mr & Mrs Lee together on-screen when he returns?. I like the idea of having Mrs Lee fill in, but she's not as good delivering punch-lines like Mr Lee
