Out of that list though, Pointless is tolerable I guess. The other two are sooo boring

Pointless is always good fun, problem with the Chase is that they get destroyed too easily most of the time, still a great show though

If you don't vote Pointless, you're wrong.

When I am in the house to watch them, I usually watch Pointless but over the last 2 weeks I have watched The Chase more.
I cannot be bothered with Eggheads.

They're all good but The Chase is my favorite of those. Eggheads is a little too slow paced for me, I think. I second Salman though, The Weakest Link was fantastic. Mentions also to Countdown - love that show.

I like Pointless because they have a lot of US questions. The other game shows i've noticed are more british-centric.

Quite right there. A lot of times if it's about movies, they'll ask for those of American actors etc.
