Personally I feel sportspeople wreck any kind of comedy game show format, because (a) they're usually not at all funny (even though, thanks to the delusions of 'bantz,' they think they're hilarious), and (b) they can't help being competitive, which clashes with the pointlessness of such a format.
Fortunately producers have realised that the solution to unfunny, competitive sportsmen is to supplement them with... er... unfunny, competitive comedians.
