The "Delightful news for someone who cares." really sums up Richard's way of thinking about Countdown. 😅

My favourite Richard Countdown moment is still when he realized the final Conundrum wasn't going to score them enough points to win and he just got up to leave the show early instead.

Im pretty sure he realises hes invited to countdown to entertain and bring viewership and does exactly that. Plus hes easily one of the more memorable people on countdown, Im sure its helped his career greatly in terms of book sales and opportunities, maybe worth a little more than the countdown teapot. But thats just me guessing.

I've always liked Richard Ayoade but I do wish he'd try a little harder on the show. Most comedians tend to make a real effort while still being funny, but when it comes to Richard, it almost feels like he's cultivated his nerd persona so heavily that he's afraid he'd lose even if he tried and so does less than half assing it lol

@dontcallmegus 6 ай бұрын

@Waytothedawn63 6 ай бұрын

@@dontcallmegus I don't think you understand what I'm saying. I'm saying I think his feigned disinterest makes him loop back around to being significantly more 'try-hard' than anybody else. It actually makes him appear stupid. All the best panellists on the show all manage to be consistently funny while still playing the game. Why can't he? It's not actually because he doesn't care. That's the act. It's because he does actually care and he's insecure in his character if he fails. He doesn't want to lose so he doesn't play. He does care about the result if he were to play genuinely, so he doesn't. It's insecure.

@dontcallmegus 6 ай бұрын

I do understand your idea, I just disagree. I think he's just trolling everyone because he literally doesn't care. To me, it looks like he's just going "Why would I even try at something so benign?" like it's beneath him, which from what I know about him, seems to fit his personality. But I get what you're saying, too!
