Baz's Culture Clash.

Reginald P. DuM · 14-09-2009 7:02pm #1

First show kicks off tonight. I don't really get why this guy is still on the TV to be honest, so it'd be fair to say I'm skeptical about this latest effort. I suppose it'll depend on the other people in the show, they might carry the programme for him. All will be revealed!!

Opinions?

Basq · 14-09-2009 10:30pm

You thought Jason Byrne's show was bad?

Have you ever seen a man so in love with himself as this Baz lad?! :eek:

Christ, RTE's re-launched comedy night is as funny as a kick to the balls!

WolfForager · 14-09-2009 10:31pm

It doesn't seem as bad as the umltimatum to me.... But that Yogi guy is off his head.

Basq · 14-09-2009 10:32pm

"You're smarter than the average bear Yogi!"

WHAT?!

I'm sorry but this Baz lad is sending me into red hot flashes of rage... and lust... with a bit of rage.... with a bit more lust!

He reminds me of Ray Shah mixed with Ray Darcy in a blender full of smugness, grey hair and just sheer bastardness!

...or a kick in the baby maker.

What is this show actually about?

spank_inferno · 14-09-2009 10:33pm

Without watching it, I'm going to say that RTE's rebranded comedy night will include a father ted re-run or if not they will slip some in very soon

amacachi · 14-09-2009 10:33pm

"Voiceover comments." *Cut to computer screen typing what he just said into a search engine*

I ****ing hate you RTÉ.

kierank01 · 14-09-2009 10:35pm

I hope so.

WolfForager · 14-09-2009 10:41pm

I want to see this sound woman try explaining this crap to my physics lecturer...

This "comedy" night is a shambles. How much did this show cost to make, they had to send Baz & his camera crew to America to make this. I remember about 10 years ago they used to do the same thing on Mondays, but it worked back then. You had 70's show, Friends, Don't feed the gondolas, Fr. Ted and a few more.

skelliser · 14-09-2009 10:52pm

i remember seeing some show ages were he got plastic surgery on his ears cause they stuck out to much.

lostexpectation · 15-09-2009 2:31am

RTE, people don't actually like personalty tv,stop it stop it, well maybe women do?

Namlub · 15-09-2009 7:58am

Louis Theroux he ain't...

beertons · 15-09-2009 8:13am

God it was terrible. The 2 minutes I saw.

Suspiria79 · 15-09-2009 8:17am

It's basically filler. Trying to fill in a time slot with a cheap RTE star. Felt embarrassed for him and everyone involved when I saw it for 3 minutes.

puppy cat · 15-09-2009 4:29pm

I'm not a huge fan of watching anything put out by RTE to be perfectly honest so I'm not even going to pretend I saw the show in question.

However, as my mum always says, if you've nothing nice to say then say nothing at all. Some folks on here could do with taking that little bit of advice on board.

Do any of you personally know Baz? How would you feel if he was your friend or your brother?

I met Baz ages and ages ago through someone I knew at the time and I have to say he was a lovely down to earth fella, and so polite too, which was kind of unheard of at the time. I'm sure he is still a lovely polite guy as manners stay with you and he was obviously very well brought up.

I find it a bit disconcerting to read some of the comments here and I can only imagine how I would feel if I was on TV and people said nasty, impolite things about me.

People, opinion is one thing, but if you've nothing nice to say then maybe say nothing at all.

End of rant

Those of us with TV licenses paid for this shìte. We're entitled to complain. And no one else met him. All we have to go by is the persona he chooses to portray on tv. And it's a persona that's not particularly likable.

He is paid (whether directly or indirectly) by RTE.... i.e. taxpayers. Therefore he is fair game. I have nothing against him personally, but I dont think anybody should be paid for shouting at a camera and being "mad". Just shows how devoid this country is of natural comic talent.

Crotchety · 15-09-2009 4:40pm

The funny thing sbout it was that this "documentary" was funnier than Jason Byrnes quiz. Especially the bit at the end - beating up the punchbag.

Old woman goes "I fu*king hate you, you c*nt you c*nt you c**ksucker. You really piss me off"

Basq · 15-09-2009 4:47pm

Sorry. No problem.

Like I wanted to punch him in the face.

Crotchety · 15-09-2009 5:12pm

I don't thnk Baz is a comedian - he's a presenter.

kittycancan · 15-09-2009 5:28pm

I've only joined this site to vent some frustration over RTE. They take the saying "no such thing as an original idea" to the extreme.

How can these show's be passed off as entertainment. How low can you go? with the three guys was great. But he on his own being "MAD" doesn't work. This is just embarrasing. We've seen it all before done by English TV but done better. Embarrassing!

Jason Byrne is so uncomfortable to watch, why oh why are the given the same show were the presenter's are "MAD".

The money squandered on this is nearly as bad as the FAS scandal!!!!!!

Ya whatever!!!!!!

Im paying for this crap so he could be as kind as Jesus for all i care, all i want is to be entertained and watching this and can honestly say its way off the mark.

Shane10 · 16-09-2009 10:19am

its just how low can you go without the other fellas. useless.

Min · 21-09-2009 10:53pm

I think this is good tonight.

WolfForager · 21-09-2009 10:54pm

Not terrible anyway.

Zonda999 · 21-09-2009 11:08pm

Thought it was absolutely hilarious tbh.:D

Way better than that horrific apprentice after-show anyway!
