Chiles was too lazy IMHO. Ever the easy, go with the editors' flow sort of questions. Dara was much tougher than I expected. I think it still works though as he knows when to back off and he's just the right sort of engaging. He doesn't create victims. Otherwise I agree with you there. YF has finally been worth watching.
I think Dara did well on his first day. Mock the Week has made him comfortable in the studio. But I did miss Adrian a bit. I miss his understated but perceptive wit, perfect for this show (and Working Lunch).
