Get rid of the audience actually - might be interesting to see what effect that would have.

Well Paul needs somebody to abuse or to pick up on his single entendres! Laughing

Today's show was like a poor kids show

Why do they insist on having items like that CSI feature today with little kids trying to read their lines from cue cards

What Andrew Lloyd Webber thought I can't imagine

Laughing That segment with the kids is exactly the sort of thing I want to see the back off on POG. I would much rather have had extended chat from Su Pollard (always great value!) or ALW, than that pointless drivel with the "chil-drennns"

Well that CSI sketch was nothing short of embarrassing.This is exactly the reason the show needs a complete revamp,the same features week in weekout but disguised as something else.If they are going to do something like that at least get an expert on and talk about the basics of CSI like the end guest did.Also,I agree with the previous poster that they should be talking to the guests for the majority,do the competition and then for the last quarter have a feature on something.Oh and did anyone else get the identity of the "thief" the minute Paul mentioned it at the top of the show?

I've given up watching POG now. I can't wait for R&J to return in June. At least with their show there is intelligent debate and discussion about topical issues. My mind goes numb watching POG.

The Kids are absolutely excruciating to watch, yet it seems to be the thing they push the most.

How are the viewing figures these days? Even the thick housewives must be tiring of the show now.

I wonder if ITV1's 'Soapstar Superchef' gets higher ratings..

I felt like this with Friday Night with Jonathan Ross. It all got very samey, the format WASN'T tired however it became all about him and his egotistical sarcasm...enough to drain your brain.

Recently however, he's toned down slightly and concentrates on the guests more but albeit how long this will last I don't know.

POG on the other hand, its the opposite. The format IS tiring and Paul is getting annoyed with it, showing his frustration by using the same catchphrases and mannerisms over and over again.

One thing i noticed is that the same guests keep coming on, yea this happens on shows, but on the POGS it seems that they come on nearly every two months and they talk about what happened last time they come on.
