Funniest: Phill Jupitus and Rob Brydon at the moment
Least Funny: Johnny Vegas

Most Interesting: Clive Anderson
Least Interesting: Gyles Brandreith (sp? I'm a Yank and at work)

As far as the know it all panelists go, some of them bug me while others just annoy me, it depends on how they fit on the panel. I like Rory, Gyles can go back to Just A Minute and John Sessions... eh, he was good on Film but I didn't miss him from the E series.

I would say my favorites are Rich Hall, Rob Brydon, Phil Jupitus, Bill Baily Sean Lock, John Sessions, Jo Brand and Jimmy Carr... hell, I like pretty much everyone.

As for least, Johnny Vegas was incomprehensible his first time on the show, though I did find him funny the second. most of the one-timers are easily forgettable, though. So forgettable, in fact, that I can't remember a single one to name.

And John Sessions is easily the most interesting contestant as a person, imo.

Hugh Laurie was a one timer! So was Emma Thompson. But I think I know what you meant!

That's why I said MOST one-timers. ;)

I guess I was more of referring to the

"So forgettable, in fact, that I can't remember a single one to name."

Sir Terry Wogan was so bad. It was for Children in Need but god, was he horrible.

Most funny: Phill Jupitus, David Mitchell, Bill Bailey
Least funny: Johnny Vegas (my hate, let me show you it)

Most interesting: John Sessions, David Mitchell (people who are funny and yet actually know stuff!)
Least interesting: Gyles Brandreth, Jonathan Ross (people who tried to be interesting and failed, as opposed to just trying to be funny)

I did like Jonathan's breathless spiel on the history of the comic book industry, that was an attempt to be interesting that turned out a little funny.

My favorites are: Bill Bailey, Rob Brydon, Alan Davies, Jimmy Carr, and Phil Jupitus. Although more recently both John Sessions and Emma Thompson have really won me over.

Least Favorites: Sean Lock and Rich Hall. Maybe I just don't get their humor, but I find myself more annoyed and bored when watching them than anything else. I always feel disappointed when I find out one or the other is on the show.

Please tell me you at least laughed at SL getting eaten by the desk!

No, sorry. I think it was his whole attitude... by that point I was already getting annoyed with him. I think his humor is based a lot on his attitude and I really am turned off by that, so it ends up being totally unfunny to me.

I don't think he's a bad comedian, really. It's just personal taste. His style of humor really doesn't appeal to me.
