Michael McIntyre's The Wheel

1 Sort by date Sort by reaction score 2
For some reason MM seems reviled, particularly in his own industry. I don’t get it. He is not edgy, he is just an old school entertainer. I was listening to a Rob Brydon podcast, he was talking to a comic, can’t remember who, they were really snotty about The Wheel. It just came across as jealousy. I really like Rob but I was surprised he was being so bitchy. I like his other show too.

I genuinely think it is jealousy. I love MM. I do find him very funny. He's not cool and he is liked across the generational board. Some comics find that hard because they are so niche and too cool for school. Similar to authors who right dreary arty stuff look down their noses at popular writers like Richard Osman.

Always loved the Wheel since it's started tbh.
Am I being crappy saying that i'm glad Jonathan didn't win? I mean he's already been to Australia seven times?! Can't be short of a few bob or two.
Also, the fake laughing pissed me off.

I really liked him. He was entertaining. That’s a very British thing to say, you can’t be glad for him because he must have a bob or two. He is a doctors receptionist, he won’t earn much. He might save up every penny he gets paid and prioritise that travel. He does charity work. He was a good guy.

I Iiked him too. He was funny and seemed a nice person. He really reminded of John Hannah facially.
And btw Stephen Mangan 🥵 When did he turn into such a hottie?

He was funny but if you can afford to go to Australia seven times then you must be okay?! I know receptionists don't earn a great deal. Neither do I, I'm a nurse and the furthest I will be going this year is Butlins with my toddler.
