ArtSmart

this Stand and Deliver is ok

Brilliant! David McSavage a genius! And the reality is, almost all of the content is completely true!

The Garda pronounciation sketch was good too!

There were a few laughs. But I think he's maybe too spot on with what he's saying. Granted it's nothing we don't already know, but it serves to depress you by pointing out all the ways we've been f*cked over and how little is likely to change. So you end up just getting angry and depressed rather than laughing. Or maybe that's just me. I find it a better version of Primetime.

yes but good for those corrupt politicians to be reminded of how they wrecked this country.

ArtSmart

didnt see first half, so will check it out on player soon.

Mainly a re-hash of last season, methinks Mc Savage is running out of ideas.
But still some funny bits, lose haha -itude, irish bloke in the dock and university of crime challenge was good, pat kenny impression was ****e

AnonoBoy

University Crime Challenge was my favourite bit.

Overall pretty decent, I'm being won over by the show (but I still dislike McSavage himself)

Thats my first time to watch the savage eye and I found it quite entertaining. So stop ****in moaning, if you dont like it dont watch it..

If people don't like it, they are allowed to be critical. It is a discussion forum you know.

I liked it myself though.

In fairness, the guy in the audience probably doesn't vote and is working class scum.

Also, the frontlines understanding of ratio's seems a bit flawed...I imagine savage eye are eagerly taking notes!

Cuts in Spending : Taxation

FF 2:1
FG 3:1
Labour 50:50!!!!!

Or 1:1

ok does anybody know what the bit of music was when the 2 gardas on the crimline scetch were talking about a murder, its from a film or somthing and its annoying me so much I can think of what its from

mickeycav

music was from "Inception", inspiring stuff i thought

i think he should cut out the "themes" and just have the sketches. as someone said they did seem to be done the last series. having said that there was some very funny bits, the singing courtroom was good. "your confused i was abused"(prob not right to laugh but in the dub accent was funny"). def the best comedy show gone out on RTE though.

ThisRegard

Didn't find it a rehash of last season at all.

The Courtroom opera was genius, loved that, as well as the FFF guy who fixed the road, it's so bloody true unfortunately.

I think the vox-boxes in between the sketches work well and are a good platform to go into the sketches from.

\without the themes it would be just normal comedy show, it's the serious bits that make the comedy effective.

Watched most of and thought it was good. Have it set to record for next week.

homerun_homer

It was good, not the best the show has been but I'm still looking forward to seeing the rest of the series. If he can match last series' Religion and Alcohol episodes then it'll be a success.

Highlights for me:
Courtroom opera
Snorts & Ladders
Crime Challenge
Priest Vs Scumbag

Ash.J.Williams

watched it again, priceless stuff..the running joke with the priest stealing the child has carried on nicely, the head on him on the luas! Ending song was very clever too. Mcsavage told george hook his next step is to write a movie. I think that would be very interesting.

Galway K9

Theyre all very talented and just telling the truth as it is....with a style.

I hope someone puts those 2 scenes up back-to-back.
First the Savage Frontline and then the real one.
When he mentioned GDP at 6% at least now we know what he wanted to say!! Love this show - the mother handing over the baby was class too !!
