    Default Never Mind the Buzzcocks

    ...has started to really suck. The new presenter is a berk. He isn't funny at all. Bring back Mark Lamarr! Or the guest presenters thing, 'cause even that was better than this twat.

    I really love this programme, but it's gone downhill.

    I find the new presenter hilarous. I actually thought Mark Lamarr was the berk, but I suppose it only because he was always bad mouthing Swindon. I think Simon is new and just needs to find his feet but I think he'll do a good job plus he has crazy hair.

    I wasn't so sure about the "new guy" myself, but he's got a really good grasp of what the show is about and the tone of it. Besides which, how can you bad mouth a show that gives you a partially senile ex-Goodie acting like the drunk guy down the bus stop?
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    NMTB has gone pretty downhill I admit, but its still great tele. I personally prefer Have I Got News For You, just much better all round.

    Why would a show called Never Mind the Buzzcocks not be about the Buzzcocks? They rock. More than the Sex Pistols.

    It's Never Mind the Buzzcocks 'cause they couldn't call it Never Mind the Bollocks, like the Sex Pistols album. xD

    Mark Lamarr was arrogant, stupid, and far from funny. Thank goodness he's gone.

    Gotta love Bill Bailey though.

    Fail.

    Amstell was on NMTB before as a guest and his comments led to Lamarr suggesting that he was stealing his job, he's a perfect replacement.

    I really do not mind Amstell one bit. Even though he looks about 13.

    He was also a bastard on Popworld which makes him great.

    I remember the story he told when he was a guest on Buzzcocks.

    One time on Popworld they had S Club Juniors on, y'know, the midget freak version of the already bad S Club. Well, it was the time of the month for one of the girls, her first in fact, and all the crew on the show were being very supportive and so on. Amstell decided to show his solidarity with this girl and the problems she was suffering, so he introduced the group in a heartwarming manner :

    "And now, we have S Club Juniors, probably my favourite band ever. Period."
