The Friday "Late Late" moan thread.

I said I'd start this weeks one............:pac:

Looks like Pat had a lick of varnish.

amacachi

Jesus, does that Duke Special lad have a note in his head?

Sounds like he has ****in bronchitis as well.

brendor

I love the way the late late can tap into the nations zeitgeist - NUNS WHO LIVE IN ISOLATION

I also loved the audience members whinging about the medical cards "...me ma will lose her medical card so now i'll have to give a toss ..."

Lil' Smiler

why are these nuns even on?


Is it really bad of me when I saw them come out and it made me think of Fr Jack and "NUNS, NUNS!!Reverse, reverse!!"

Mike

Lil' Smiler

Jesse Metcaffe... seemed rather subdued or something..was weird, thought he'd have been more entertaining

deccy7

Watch something else?

Basq

Late Late competing with Jonathon Ross that has Ricky Gervais, Gordon Ramsey, Sarah Silverman and Razorlight.

HA!

:pac:

Lil' Smiler

SH1TE!!!! Forgot about JR!!!

Basq

That's what you get for watching The Late Late.. I don't know how people still watch it.

Apart from taking the piss outta the Toy Show, I haven't seen an episode in at least 10 years. No lie!

Why would you watch it?! I fail to see any entertainment value in it whatsoever!

I'm not watching it. I'm surfing the net. The missus is watching it. She hasn't much time for him either mind you.

Several possible reasons Mike!

1. Not in possession of the remote control. (i.e. me )

2. 4 channel land.

3. It's the national broadcaster so people are entitled to comment.

kleefarr

Actually, Twiggy and Mikey are just about making it half decent. :rolleyes:

Gonzovision

Whats with the crap comedians?

Wishbone Ash

O'Connor is scraping the barrell!

Gonzovision

Jaysus bring back the comedian!

mike65

Sorry WA, I can only feel for those not with 'the pow-r' but there is little excuse for 4 channels when lidl are knocking out complete sat systems for under a ton

finally d best part of d show...the end:)

thebouldwhacker

the country is falling apart and the late late has the same line up as Parkenson had in one of his shows from 1998.... washed up brits and pat kenney...:mad:

Love him or hate him if Gaybo were still presenting he would had Garret Fitz, Nell Mc, George Lee, Bertie and prob have dug up Charlie and sorted out the country by 11:30, just in time for a surprize song from U2... instead kenney is the friday night book promo show...

Like Zig and Zag said soon after pat the plank took over... 'kenny is a magician! he made 25,000 viewers dissappear in one show'

I had to cringe when I heard that Tom O Connor guy recycling Brendan Graces jokes from about 20 years ago (i.e the mammy jokes "Just look at the dirt behind your ears" etc etc)....talk about floggin a dead horse :rolleyes:

He actually hasn't been on it in 2 years.... although it seems more often than that (even Ross made a joke referencing it).

What was going on with the Late Late Last night? I counted 3 different people who visibly walked across the back of the set in one 15 minute period. Later there was a woman sticking her head around the corner before the camera cut away. Some seriously dodgy camera work generally throughout. Colour bars on screen at one stage. And the show finished a good 5-10 minutes early. Were the production crew all desperate to get back to the drink??

mike65

This Tom O'Conner?

If so then its more likely Brendan Grace has been recycling O'Connes stone age jokes.

Wouldn't you be desperate for a drink if you were being forced to film that crap?

Was this the Tom O'Connor from the Stewart Lee joke?

No he wouldn't. It would have been exactly the same show. Parky, nuns (admittedly in Gay's day they would all be American lesbians), an English comic, a young fella complaining about stopping the medical card for the auld ones to which Gay would have told him he was a great young fella altogether for coming on and not to be bothering the country again until he had a wife, an American fillum star, Twiggy and Tom O'Connor. Perhaps Nell McCafferty slotted in somewhere for a bit of slightly-pissed Northern whinging light entertainment. Gay never really troubled the FF crowd.

Actually thought last night's show was the best in ages apart from the obvious techical errors. Maybe of little appeal to a young audience other than the 'hot yank' Great for us over 40.

Must be that the Budget's made ye all stay in and start acting like speckled teens so full of angst and telling yerselves that it'd be great to be somewhere else. 'Twould be so much better in the booming beerkeller on Dawson St shouting trivialities at another hairjelled twat. Methinks that the reason the Sisters cause upset by a LL appearance is because they tap into the subconscious of the maladjusted who subscribe heavily to the notion that 'hell really is other people'. Have ye tried hating yerselves somewhere else ?:cool:

Nope... Just visiting the folks and was on boards while they were watching the show and thought I'd comment, of course Abraham if you feel like projecting your feelings about a topic you feel we should not be posting about I'm sure you could either start the late late appreciation thread next week or re analyse your post and discover that what you said actually describes your post better than any of ours????
But what do I know, apparently I think other people are hell, opps:o

Typical night on the late late really. Although the test card was a new one...

The test card was a highlight alright.

According to tomorrow's papers, Gerry Ryan is going to be presenting this Friday's Late Late Show (Pat Kenny's mother died this week). Suddenly Pat doesn't seem so bad after all.

Basq

To be honest.. I don't particularly enjoy Gerry Ryan but some fresh blood might at least be interesting.
