Another BBC light entertainment disaster currently unfolding on BBC1.
101 Ways To Leave A Game Show is the slowest television programme ever and it's got ratings disaster writing all over it. It looked bad from the trailer but I never imagined it would be this bad. ![]() ![]() ![]() It gets even worse, BBC One have just broadcast a trailer for John Barrowmans "Tonights the Night".

101 ways looked vaguely entertaining from the previews and the concept but it has been dull.

Other than Lets Dance for Comic/Sport Relief, anything Steve Jones goes near tends to flop

Useless, and to think what a powerhouse BBC light entertainment was 30 years ago when Bill Cotton was the biggest employer of entertainers in Europe and shows like The Generation Game and The Two Ronnies were revered and had 19 million viewers.

I can see 101 Ways flopping as well. It was terrible. I expect 5m+ tuning in out of curiosity this week, with probably 3/4m tuning in next week..

![]() ![]() I also watched it and it was as dreadful as everyone else says it was. I think it'll have gotten about 4.5m tonight but it'll be sub-3m within a couple of weeks. |

I remember how much Colour Of Money was getting hyped, and then t from 4.5m+ to sub 3m.
And then I remember Take Me Out being slated before it even started but people generally loved it because it was so cheesy, its first episode got 3.5m, and the last few episodes ended up hitting 5m+. Never judge a show before i reckon. |

Have you seen the competition though - don't see either of ITV's shows next week putting up much of a fight.
God bless 'em. |

BBC1 and ITV1 doing their bit to aid the economic recovery by driving everybody down the pub on a Saturday night.

I actually find myself thinking the BBC have spent license payers money on sending people to Argentina, the set, the fireworks etc....and it's a complete and utter waste!!! |

BSkyB's news channel had more viewers than the BBC News Channel at 10pm, because people were watching the BBC News on BBC One.
I'm sure ITV1's news beat BSkyB's too. |

Tonight's BBC1 schedule was one of the worst most random schedules ever.
After the early evening flop waiting to happen we were treated to outtakes from A Question of Sport and then an episode of Mitchell and Webb, that is usually on BBC2! They do know that the 3rd place play off isn't usually that important and they don't have to schedule like they are opposite an England game?
