I watched the Qi episode in series J episode 6. joints episode. QI (Quite Interesting) is a British comedy panel game television quiz show created and co-produced by John Lloyd, hosted by Stephen Fry, and featuring permanent panellist Alan Davies. Steven fry is the presenter of the show and his policy is the person with the stupidist answer wins as the questions he asks are very challenging to answer and sometimes confusing. The panel consists of four participants: three rotating and one regular, Alan Davies, who has the seat to Stephen Fry's immediate right. Davies has appeared in every episode. The audience see davies as the dumb one that everyone picks on and laughs at. Hes the one that never wins and almost always doesn't give the answer they were looking for. The bits that makes people laugh is mainly for the most stupid answer will give the audience a bit laugh. The guest speakers come across almost quite imature in answer there questions and almost stupid which is why the show is so sucessful as it makes people feel amost better about them selfs. Questions are misleading or very difficult. Providing an "obvious but wrong" answer results in a sequence of flashing lights, and a theatrical cry of despair from Stephen Fry, which very much amuses the audience. Because of the show's expectation that hardly anyone would be able to give a correct answer without significant prompting, it instead encourages sheer interestingness, which is how points are mainly scored. Negative scores are common, and occasionally even the victor's score may be negative.
