FTA-TV Have You Been Paying Attention?

[DEVO]

Yeh poor form by Fifi to win by that much. Understand the context of the show, you're not there to get all the answers right and win by that much.

She was trying to prove to everyone that she isn't just another dumb blonde. Unfortunately, the fact that she mispronounced about half her words only proved that she is just another dumb blonde.

By the by, is Fifi Box a real name?

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

She's the most competitive person ever, she talks about it a lot on her radio show.

 

[DEVO]

Bill Cosby.

Just as funny the second time.

 

[jackn]

Just saw the 2nd half of this weeks ep. Had some good laughs but as others have said, wtf was Fifi doing. Nobody gives a s**t if you get the answer and buzzing in quick stops the funny people making us laugh.

Fiona Box

 

[akkaps]

Her daughter's name is Beatrix Belle Box. So we have Fifi Box and B. B. Box.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Cracking show so far!

 

[Silvagnis]

Need a vid of those news highlights.

Gee Sam could have won that if Tom wasn't so picky with his answers

I've seen better officiating in an afl game

Let's not go nuts.

 

[King Elvis]

Lee Lee is quite funny.

 

[akkaps]

So the copy of this episode on TenPlay is just Rapid Recall.

 

[Ochre]

Sam was robbed.

 

[HBF]

Missed it again. Will have to catch up with it later in the week.

 

[Stevolution]

710,000 viewers according to Tv Tonight, 2nd highest ever behind the 712,000 of Janes episode. Hopefully that gives us another season or more.

Aaaahhhh .... that explains why my wife was saying the last episode up was a repeat.

Oh, it's up there now. Will watch it tonight. Very excited to see Lee Lee Chin on there. Easily the best Twitter account in the world!

It was actually one of the closest contests ever. The unofficial scoring in the studio had only 2 questions between all of them.

Sams winning edit was hilarious. He got up to the podium, shoved Tom out of the way and gave a speech to the camera.

They are back next year with another season.

Sam did seem to enjoy quietly mentioning that the best ratings of the year came sans Tom!

I thought this was gold

 

[akkaps]

I reckon they should have an open poll for Australia to decide who should feature on the End of Year specials.

The one win from 56 starts is a notable stat.

Has anybody had personal interaction with Sam, worked with him or anything?

We all love his humour. But I get the impression with him. If you got into a dispute with him or he didn't like you, he'd be a real smart arse. Make really cutting remarks.

He's a great bloke behind the scenes. First time he saw me around the studio, he went out of his way to introduce himself to me, and then remembered my name when he saw me a few weeks later. Knowledgeable guy, have had many conversations with him and out of all the guys there, he is probably the most down to earth.

The stuff you see on camera with the insults, etc (especially towards Tom) is a lot of acting and bluster.
