I agree.

Even the BBC’s schedule is beginning to feel a bit staid. There’s been a Mrs Brown’s Boys special for years, Strictly Come Dancing for years, Death in Paradise has been going since 2010 and so on.

Not that there is anything wrong with any of those shows, it just feels like “the next big hit” has never really come along.

Yep. The Wheel is the only gameshow at least that jumps out as being suitable for Xmas Day. The Hit List possibly could have worked if it had punched more above its weight.
