Lets not rewrite history though.
Horses for courses, but Bo Selecta in the early 00s was indisputably massive, certainly amongst young adults like myself (at the time). When I was at uni we wouldn’t go out on a Friday night til it had finished.
And I did find it absolutely hilarious. Especially the Michael Jackson and David Blaine stuff (amongst others).
Of course it won’t have aged well (though I haven’t watched it back) but it was very much of its time and I get a nice sense of nostalgia when I think about that show at its peak. Maybe it’s more to do with the age I was at the time.
That all said, I’ve never been able to get into Celebrity Juice or his other stuff. The odd line is funny but that’s about it.
