mel making her case (and doing her best to tear down noel's):

MAYBE a very dumb Q, but for panel shows I've only ever watched 8OO10C does countdown, or Big Fat Quiz Of the Year. Do you have any suggestions for panel shows to get into after these, or even specific episodes? ; o ;

hey cutie!! this question is NOT dumb you are a caterpillar becoming a beautiful butterfly and what more can i ask?? if you really like those series and you consider yourself somewhat of a panel show beginner, i’m going to recommend an episode from a number of panel shows so you can see what you like. highest recs are at the top; i tried to determine this based on both 1) comedy but also 2) accessibility, because i’m not sure where you live and how familiar you are with british culture and politics. so give these a crack:

would i lie to you? — 6.06 (rob brydon, david mitchell, lee mack, greg davies, richard osman, patsy kesnit, bob mortimer)

taskmaster — 4.01 (greg davies, alex horne, hugh dennis, joe lycett, lolly adefope, mel giedroyc, noel fielding)

qi — g.10 (stephen fry, alan davies, jo brand, david mitchell, sean lock)

never mind the buzzcocks — 22.12 (simon amstell, bill bailey, phill jupitus, josh groban, martin freeman, heston blumenthal, grant nicholas)

was it something i said? — 1.01 (david mitchell, richard ayoade, micky flanagan, charlie higson, jimmy carr)

duck quacks don’t echo — 5.03 (lee mack, joe lycett, claudia winkleman, johnny vegas)

insert name here — 2.04 (sue perkins, richard osman, josh widdicombe, james acaster, suzannah lipscomb, rob beckett, steph mcgovern)

room 101 — 17.08 (frank skinner, nicola adams, frankie boyle, diane morgan)

8 out of 10 cats — 17.03 (jimmy carr, sean lock, jon richardson, roisin conaty, jerry springer, jack dee, example)

celebrity juice — 19.10 (keith lemon, fearne cotton, holly willoughby, iain sterling, caroline flack, lisa stansfield, joel dommett, mark wright)
