Oh well, I think you're slightly out-numbered here pal. And we're not all praising Quizmania just because one of their hosts is a member of this forum. Jeeez..


So you really think QM is the heights of late night broadcasting?

No I don't at all. Do you not read these threads?

What a load of brown-nosers! Just because one of the posters may or may not be Gregg Scott, there is nothing but praise for one of the worst things to happen to British TV since Mr Baird first made his test transmission.

Shame. Sad


He defientely posts on DS, where the propoganda continues....

Lottie: "Do keep your eyes out for us [Quizmania] in the future, though, in some form - we do want to hit your screens again!"

That sounds like Quizmania definitely won't be coming back (maybe Fremantle won't let them use the format anymore) but there could be another similar show being planned.

Debbie and Chuck were two of the original creators of QM anyway; it's not as if they'd find it difficult to come up with another cheesy format. Laughing

^ Bah, maybe that post is just wishful thinking. Razz

Quizmanina isn't a quiz show! It's gambling with very, very long odds.

As some of the presenters jokes! Wink

Anyway, the end is nigh, Sunday is the final day, Greg is defientely on and I bet Debbie and Chuck will make a final apperance.

I expect Fremantle will get a new commission just like Ludos have with The Glitter Ball?

I must admit, I never been a fan of ITV Play but it is very addictive.

Greggle's Quizmania is by far the best thing on there. The presenters on The Mint are so false. And as for Make Your Play & Play DJ, well talk about tat.

I would like to see ITV turn Play into a proper quiz channel. Bring back the old gameshow formats, maybe with interactive elements.

I've always thought an interactive Catchphrase would work well.

Greg and Flash were acting rather sour and bitter last night, well immediately after eating some 'Toxic Waste'. I can see why presenters enjoy the show if they get food/sweet packages from viewers.

Agreed, if you hate it so much why keep going on about it, you've got your wish Sad

Regarding Fremantle (and not wanting to take this thread off course at all, just a slight observastion), it may be a case that another broadcaster could have wanted QM but like with Family Affairs when that got dropped by five Frenmantle may have decided not to sell it to another broadcaster?

Also good on Asa for getting through to Greggles on QM. Very Happy
