Nicknames for tv shows

[Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain]

Just for fun. Do you have shortcuts nicknames for anything? When I see my mum and Who Wants to be a Millionaire is on we always call it Millionaire. Plus we love Jeremy clarkson.

Not original or unique, but we call Have I Got News For You 'Hignify to rhyme with dignify.

I love this!

The Winter Olympics in our house are called The Slipping & Sliding

silent Witness is violent Shitness here

I call it Murder She Committed!

We barely call any shows by their proper names tbh! My favourite was that we for some reason called 'The Night Manager' 'In the Night Garden with Iggle Piggleston'.

This is fantastic 😂. Love it 👏

The Apprentice = The Muppet Show
Any of the 'Real Housewives' franchise = Shouty Ladies

My DH calls 'Call the Midwife' 'I'm a midwife, get me out of here'.

We always refer to Antiques Roadshow as Greed on Sunday (or ‘Greed’ for short) after reading it in a newspaper article some years ago.

Very unoriginal, but... Bridgers....and that 'scary thing with corridors' as my friend can never remember SEVERANCE. Maybe a clue that she has never been an 'innie' 😬

Dh likes to call Corrie ‘Coronation Farm’ because he thinks all the soaps blend into one.

Goggly for Gogglebox.
Traitors is always said in Alan Cummings sultry Scottish accent.

Not a programme (directly); but in The Simpsons, Marge reads an aspirational magazine called 'Better Homes Than Yours'!

Strictly Shite Dancing
Lolly for Love It or List It. Kirsty is referred to as the jolly posh one
Man Shakes Hand With Another Man for The News
How Much for Antiques Roadshow
Smug Ian ( Hislop ) for Have I got News for You
And Hurdy Gurdy Andre for Andre Rieu on Sky Arts I used to record for my mum.

And Clean Your Shite Up for Stacey Solomon show

Any of the police reality shows are known as Stop! I'm a Cop (except for Highland Cops, which gets to keep it's real name). Location, Location, Location is known as Hooses.

There was a police docu show, I think Interceptors or something like that.
I called it Pat & Karl.

LOL - we call it Hig-niffy - to rhyme with "whiffy".

Used to call Casualty ‘Nonch’, as in nonchalant after first shortening it to cazh, as in casual.
Witless Silence
Pottery Stitch Up

24 hours in custard (I think you can work it out..)
PM Squirming time (PMQs)

Years ago 'Dynasty' was always Dysentery in our house

All those awful afternoon programmes where they take stuff to auctions,are all called Sell your granny.

All day time antiques shows in our house are called Tat In The Attic
