IMO ITV would have been better if they stuck with The Sketch Show, that was full of well known comedians and had a good writing team and was funnier.

Shame they axed it.

Did ITV actually axe it I thought they didn't want to make any more episodes in which case I'm very dissapointed in ITV for axeing it I loved the Sketch Show.

I don't think they did axe it, didn't the stars want to move on to other things, you know what they are like these comedy types

ISTR that ITV axed it, as it got moved about after the second episode, they also didn't show two episodes either, which are usually shown on Paramount 2 from time to time.

I haven't seen any of them move onto nothing major, Lee Mack has been cast in the American version, "The Kelsey Grammer Sketch Show" (or something similar) and Tim Vine had a very funny DVD out, but thats all really.
