Tickets for the entire season of HYBPA seem to be all gone within minutes.
You’re clearly not on the mailing list for The Weekly, that is always desperate for audience.

Literally every show recorded in front of an audience would be desperate for people to show up.

As long as the audience don’t scream out the answers in unison and look childish. Was one of the worst parts about Family Feud. I know 10 skews young but that kind of atmosphere is just childish.
Plus Denyer hosting is a big no. He’s too grating and OTT. Maybe Mark Humphries would’ve been a better host.

Part of the Family Feud bible isn’t it to have those answers yelled out? Agree though, very cheesy and added to the lameness.

You’d be howled down on the socials for daring to speak ill of our beloved FF and Grant.
Better than being eaten alive by a real lion 
New episodes return tomorrow night.
Were they showing repeats?
Yep
Is this show cheap to make for the ratings it gets?
*Sigh, that “tribe has spoken” reference to Survivor sounds so cheap and tacky. It would be like Nine saying “block it in, Millionaire Hot Seat is back” for new episodes of Hot Seat. 
Perhaps the survey was done the same way as the show format, the show coming back for another season being the answer accepted because it was the least popular? Especially when you use ratings as a basis 
In all seriousness, i’ve watched a few episodes of Pointless on 10 Play and have enjoyed it. I do like obscure trivia so that’s probably why. Far better than Family Feud.

Pointless has been axed.

I’m guessing Celebrity Name Game will take the 6pm slot which makes me think Ten had given up on Pointless when they acquired the CNG format rights.

I imagine that would be a more expensive show to produce because they have to pay the celebrities to appear, so would be surprised if it was in a 6pm slot.
I wonder if the ABC would be interested in saving Pointless. Seems better suited there.

Do they have different celebrities every episode? They could just rotate between a few.
Putting Grant back in the slot is probably a good idea. CNG is certainly more appealing to 10’s audience then Pointless I would think.
