Ubiquitous TV/film personalities

[A580Hojas]

I get really frustrated when the same few "stars" get wheeled out again and again to the point where you just become sick of the sight of them even if you quite liked them originally.

It happened with Tony Slattery many years ago (not a happy ending) and also Caròl Vorderman.

Nowadays I can't seem to go a day without seeing Romesh Ranganathan, Tom Allen, Dr Michael fucking Moseley and even, God love her, Olivia Coleman.

Who else is over exposed? I'd love to see some more actors and presenters getting a share of the work but producers/casting directors just seem so unimaginative.

I think the last time I saw him was on Carpool Karaoke ages ago!

I think Anna Maxwell Martin has the hint of a younger Vicky Pepperdine. Anyhow yes Bradley Waksh, Rylan and Romesh are on eeeeeverything!

I think it is a combination of lazy commissioning / casting and a pushy agent.

Remember the days when Stephen Fry was on everything. They always seem to find a flavour-of-the-month and then over-do them so much that the public end up hating them instead.

They ought to be sharing out the work - think of all those actors etc who couldn't get any gigs during lockdown

Fred Sirieix is another one.

Maya Jama. Anything even vaguely aimed at ‘the youth’ is presented by her now.
