Not sure if you guys get this English gameshow, which is basically about how clever Stephen Fry is and how dumb his comedian contestants are.
If you don't know who Fry is, then you'd recognise him as the general from from Blackadder series 4, Mycroft Holmes from the recent Guy Ritchie Sherlock Holmes movies (the ones with Robert Downey Jr), and from various documentaries.
"Qi" means "Quite interesting", and Fry takes the panel on a journey thorugh quoite interesting facts from science and history.
I like Fry, and I like the subject matter of the show, but for some reason Fry comes across as just slightly condescending, and it irritates the crap out of me. It would be better if he was just plain abusive, so at least viewers would recognise it as being a comedy.
