I see that we've got a new iteration of The Chase on TV tonight.
Don't get me wrong, I love a good quiz. The Chase's format works because there's lots of questions and (sometimes) some drama . It also doesn't plod along like The Tipping Point which relies heavily on the tension of a randomly falling disc. How thrilling! And don't get me started on the even more plodding Millionaire Hot Seat.
But like all things in life, you get reach the end of your tether. I'm calling time on Bradley and the worn out gang of Chasers.
As an aside, TV1's daily schedule is typically two hours of The Chase, two hours of falling discs, and two hours of Ellen. 25% of the day is devoted to three programmes. TVNZ is always promoting things that are showing only On Demand - why not show them on TV instead of the cheap dross they're currently broadcasting?
