** Before Creator/{{UKTV}} Gold got the rights, the show had a temporary run on the UK version of Cartoon Network. Whilst the show itself is family orientated, the CN airings, however, were edited to be more 'kid-friendly', so any scenes/gags with suggestive material or humor were removed.

* InspirationForTheWork: Harry got the idea for the series when he filled in for Garry Bushell, television critic for ''The Sun'', when he was on holiday. He enjoyed makign fun of the week's television so much he devised a series out of it.
* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: In fear of having to pay a lot of channels royalty money (despite the show following Fair Use laws), the show can never be aired again on Creator/{{ITV}}. It hasn't stopped viewers uploading episodes on the internet, mostly because the [=DVDs=] released have been compilation episodes and {{clip show}}s.

* ReferencedBy: The ITV and STV announcers [[ContinuityAnnouncement outroing]] the show over the closing credits sometimes referenced Harry's gags, especially if they were digs at the show he was leading into. They seemed to like "The Many Faces of [[Series/TheXFactor Louis Walsh]]" ([[https://youtu.be/eqj_a8iEaWE]]) for this in particular.

* EditedForSyndication: Some episodes have been edited when being shown on Gold to remove outdated material (see Values Dissonance on the YMMV page).

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Is to be expected if you ever get the chance to watch a rerun of the show. The series worked on reviewing many channel programmes of the time and the episodes that were on TV the week it aired; some of them have either stopped airing or in soap opera [[LongRunners cases]], many of the actors that Harry might focus on have either [[AuthorExistenceFailure left]], been [[MCleaned killed off]] or [[TheCharacterDiedWithHim died in real life]]. There's also a lot of mention of current news stories at the time and mentions of celebs that might have faded into obscurity, retired, or died as well.
