Universal Genius
Universal Genius was a clever concept combining comedy and quizzing without the need to get the answers right, but instead giving the most witty, intellectual answer. The contestants change each time, but we had two very on the ball comedians this month – they being the quirky talent of Andrew O’Neill and the contrasting sophistication of Simon Evans.
It was however a slow warm up to the quiz. If there had been less sketches at the beginning and more witty repartee from the two hosts of the show, this would have been a perfect formula to work with. This show however in the end was worth seeing for the different styles of comedy on offer.
