So Newsnight Review's back but as the Review Show. The 'Show', I suppose, will mean 'less demanding'.

The format is similar - a group of people all trying to shout one another down, so that nobody gets much of a chance to say anything worthwhile.

The fact that they chose to base the whole first issue on Barack Obama's first year, with minimal cultural content, does not bode well for the future. Not long before they bring the slebs in, I expect...

A lot of fancy speeches, eff all action, a Noble Peace Prize and er, 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan. There, job done.

Nobel, even.

I suppose we have to feel glad the Beeb haven't brought back Tomorrow's World. Goodness knows how many ways they'd find to dumb that down.
