It's so sad the fall from grace (yes...in relative terms) that BOTS has had. When it peaked in 2012-13 I legitimately thought it was the best spin-off show of them all, and for a time was even ahead of Dermot's BBLB days.

Then they tried to make it more "upmarket" or whatever the ****, it's a trashy magazine show about one of the trashiest shows on television it's SUPPOSED to be tacky, irreverent and full of innuendo. Bring back the spunking dog and the sweaty box!

Emma made that show her own, and tbh - as much as I DON'T hate Rylan like many others do, he's just...boring? A nice guy, a good interviewer, clearly works hard, loves the show and is perfectly competent at his job, but there's none of the warmth or charm that there used to be. In the golden days I would genuinely look forward to BOTS more than the main show, I have barely watched it for about three series now.

So, I don't know. If they tried to bring it back to its heyday, tackiness and all...maybe it could be great again? Less of the unfunny skits where Rylan puts on a cringey accent, and more Dish On The Side and out-of-context clips used for double entendres. But if not, then no I probably wouldn't miss it tbh
