    Typically spineless judges, Blanith prob had a big cry about how she had no act in the final and thd others bought it. wat a load of ****e. The rooneys and the opera singer where miles ahead of that slugs girl. :mad::(

    First time watching this....what's the big hype over the two Dublin boys? I know they're only young fellas but God that was awful! If this was in the US or UK they wouldn't have made it past the first round.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭starn


    Who did they choose as the wildcard

    Having been on the show I can fairly confidently say that the judges probably had little to do with picking the wildcard. This is TV people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 577 ✭✭✭Milky Moo


    I may be alittle biased being from the south east and all but that little jack lynch dude is so adorable,the last time he danced i must have used up my awh quota for the year!

    Here now hes just like Jimi Hendrix or Slash form Guns and Roses. Except he has a toilet brush for a head

    You would be amazed at the amount of acting that goes on! Most of what the judges say/do is scripted. The producers were never going to leave the east out of the final and alienate a large chunk of the viewing public.

    oh yeah i can definitely see the similarities..between the toilet brush that is...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,215 ✭✭✭scrubber72


    this is without the best thing rte have ever done. where did they find those comedy acts i have burst a gut


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,123 ✭✭✭The Bull


    The song prob sums it up, hit the road jack. She did her best though. not a bad voice but nothing special or nothing you would not come across in many pubs and clubs on a sat night. On a side note she probably is the one that could use the 50000 euro the most, been a mother of three.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 577 ✭✭✭Milky Moo


    this little guy is the only reason why i tuned in..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,215 ✭✭✭scrubber72

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,613 ✭✭✭✭Clare Bear


    Ah that little dancing Waterford kid has to win, he was great, someone was actually good, I can't believe it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭cedomination


    This show is a fix tbh Dublin Girl was miles better than any of these.

    EDIT: Is it just me or does it look as if they are dancing in slow motion?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,215 ✭✭✭scrubber72


    yup yea boy


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭starn


    Christ on a bike, what kinda a sh1te is this, I didnt even know people like that lived anymore. Could they fit in anymore Oirish cliches. Tell me one of the brothers is a preist

    Wouldn't the fact that shouty woman had no act in the final just compound the evidence that her taste in talent was utter shíte, and therefore she deserves to be act-less in the grand finale?

    I cant believe Im actually bothering to be honest. There's bugger all long term talent on display. The should have just named it "The All Ireland search for children with a small amount of potential" , or "The All Ireland search for the nation's least offensive midweek pub singer" or just "The All Ireland search for children with a semi-amusing 3 minute party trick who none of us will ever hear from again as soon as this crap is finished"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 577 ✭✭✭Milky Moo


    at the intro didn't it look like that bit from father ted where the dudes from the mainland play the deliverance song against the locals and there's some guy on the beach in the background dancing?!

    Good to see Graine put John Creedon in his place with her quip ' are your sure they are women' after being nasty to her last week.:mad:

    Who are you referring to?

    Are you referring to the lads from the Aran Islands? If so, how do you think people live? Wearing surfer dude's clothes saying "far out man"?

    Where do you live? West Britain? Irish music and dance are still very much part of life for many of us.

    From 2 weeks ago,she was Shanes act and she was beyond brutal. By far the worst of all the entries.

    Tuned in for the first time ever today, to see some eejit jumping around with a violin playing about 2 notes. Of course, the judges called him a 'talented musician', and compared him to Jimi Hendrix and Slash. I can count on one hand the amount of times I've picked up a violin, and I'm 100% certain I could have done something better.

    So you reckon she gets the vote from all the 14 year old single mothers texting in who can empathize? If fairness, she does have a good voice but the person who chose the song and the person who chose her outfit (surname connors no doubt), should be lined up against the wall and shot.

    Winner will be out of Daithí, Jack or Mulkerrin Brothers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 577 ✭✭✭Milky Moo


    here's hoping the little dude gets it,but the whole voting for the act in your area might clench it for the dubs..pity because those 2guys had some problems...like their singing for one!:p
