<![CDATA[Re:Vote "Knightmare" for ITV's 50 Greatest Shows]]>A list show commemorating ITV's 50th anniverary will be aired in September.

Clicking on the below link will allow you top pick your five favourite shows from the list provided and then add one omitted show - need I tell you that this deserves to be Knightmare?

It's an outside chance I know - but maybe we can just sneak Knightmare into the top 50!

What a UN-LOVELY List of choices!!

Appart from

Inspector Morse & The Sweeny (with the great John Thaw RIP)

And

Cracker (Robbie Coltrane) it was a pretty naff representation of ITV.

I also voted for The Muppet Show as I believe that the decision to omit Knightmare from the main list of 50 could only be as a result of some action taken by a group of muppets....

Suffice to say, Knightmare has been voted for by myself. This show should easily be in the list given what they have to offer us. No wonder ITV struggles so much to keep an audience these days, what with Footballer's Wives and Love Island headlining their listings each week.

Still, here's more hope for Knightmare.

People might mention what got number one but its unlikely this will be discussed for years to come. Knightmare tops all them shows in my opinion!

Definitely agree with the vicious circle idea said earlier.

How can they include shows such as "Footballers’ Wives", and not Knightmare?

ITV are definitely the worst terrestrial channel.

They axed a great TV show that everybody loved.

Probably the same people who came up with that list. Honestly..."Ant and dec"? "Pop idol"?

Idiots.

Anyways I've nominated Knightmare too. It thoroughly deserves a place in the top 50 for sure.

Im a Celebrity get me out of here great?!?! Tish-tosh, brain degenerating rubbish. LEts get KM recognized!!!

I will prepare something...

Most of the shows are pre 80s or post 95. I guess that I can't vote though as I could only see one or two listed that I like. I'll study the list again though to see if I change my mind.

I voted:

An Audience with... (only because I saw the excellent Victoria Wood the other night on ITV2 or 3)

Heartbeat (genuinly good Sunday night drama)

The Muppet Show (genuinly good: a classic!)

Spitting Image (from the few repeats I've seen and documentaries I've seen)

This is Your Life (I remember this as a BBC show though!)

Out of the whole list, I only found one that I liked.

I put Km in the box, but I think if I'd been given absolute freedom I'd have voted

  • Knightmare

  • The Tomorrow People (1992-1995 remake, not the crappy original)

  • Bad Influence!

  • the Frank Skinner show

  • the Avengers

Y'know, it occurs to me that ITV is a bit of a crap channel, seeing as that's all I can come up with (actually, I thought of the Prisoner as well, but you're only allowed five). I came up with six properly good ITV shows 😐

If it were BBC1, 2 or channel 4 I could do a list as long as my arm

Ridiculous that Km isn't in it. Mind you, since best-of lists are heavily influenced by current trends (classic example: some ultra-trendy music channel's 'best ever albums' list being clogged with rubbish, only put there because it's recent and in vogue with its cynically-targeted audience) it makes sense that as well as favourites being dictated by the audience, it also works in reverse - the broadcaster dictating what's 'best'. This vicious circle of playing safe and pandering to lowest-common-denominator vogue whilst also dictating what the vogue should actually be is perhaps also the thing that's responsible for sabotaging Km's attempted revival, imo.
