Why is the 1% Club so good?

It is because it is like the chase but interactive, boy if that show was on when I was a kid I would be all over it.

Most of the questions are logic based rather than knowledge based, so anyone can have a good go at them. It's rare for a quiz show to be accessible to people without a wide general knowledge based. (Pointless is popular for a similar reason. You may not be able to get the best answer but most people can give *an* answer)

This - it is also a breath of fresh air compared to Pointless and the Chase that seem to just rehash old questions and categories over and over again!

It would be great if it didn't have repeated sections and basically filler.

I am surprised how consistently interesting the questions are. Everyone can have a crack too, sometimes the kids will see it before us as it doesn't need general knowledge - you've just got that 30 seconds to catch it. One tip - if it is a choice of answers and it involves lots of counting or maths - it is never the first one. Start at the end.

They can remove the this is how the show works and the let’s see how much is now in the prize pot, would save a good 5+ mins.

Yeah it's a bit odd. Just assume it's 100k and then mention if someone takes their 1k to lower it.

The questions are fun to puzzle out with a few friends/family but I couldn't give less of a shit about any of the contestants. Get a few more questions in and ignore them until you have a winner.

Wife loves it because you don't really need to know anything. She doesn't really watch the news or know much about sports . Its logical answers and she normally does quite well on it .

It gets families talking about the answers, if it wasn’t for this quiz I wouldn’t have spoken to my wife in the past four years.
