Personally, I can’t stand Pointless any more despite loving the format, for the reasons already mentioned plus the ubiquity of Richard Osman.
I don’t really have a problem with him but I much preferred it when he was the occasionally wryly amusing sidekick, I can’t help but feel he’s now stretched way too thin, talent wise.
Only Connect has similar presenter problems. When she’s just reading the questions and doing the “admin” she’s a perfectly reasonable host but as soon as she attempts to be funny my toes curl so much it hurts and when she bullies the contestants into singing it makes me want to smash the telly (thank goodness for fast forward on catch up).
