TLC Orders Top Trumps Panel Show Hosted by Katherine Ryan

Warner Bros. Discovery U.K.'s TLC has commissioned a new comedy panel show based on the popular card game Top Trumps. The series, tentatively titled “Top Trumps: The Comedy Pack,” will be hosted by comedian Katherine Ryan. The show will feature team captains Joel Dommett and Jon Richardson engaging in classic card face-offs. This commission is part of TLC's broader strategy to bolster its comedy slate in the U.K.

In addition to the Top Trumps series, TLC has also announced new seasons for the long-running comedy panel show ‘Mock the Week’. The revival of ‘Mock the Week’ was confirmed to be part of the network's upcoming programming. These announcements signal a renewed focus on comedy content for the U.K. market by Warner Bros. Discovery.

The network aims to leverage established formats and popular comedic talent to attract and retain viewers. The inclusion of a Top Trumps-themed show suggests an effort to tap into nostalgia while offering a fresh comedic take. Further details regarding the production timelines and specific episode counts for both shows are expected to be released in the coming months.
