    Jeremy Clarkson.

    Ricky Gervais (more in an ironic way)

    Jeremy Kyle

    Simon Cowell

    Sue Sylvester the character from Glee

    Daithi O'Se. What a tosser. And Hector, the twat.

    The Jeremys; Clarkson, Paxman and Kyle.

    Clarkson is cool, and Paxman just about gets away with it because he's so deadpan.
    But Jeremy Kyle deserves a smack in the face (as do most of the guests on his show)

    In Ireland, Craig Doyle is the smuggest person I have ever had the misfortune of having to watch on TV. Again, punch in the face would be richly deserved. :mad:

    From Irish tv for me it has to be Vincent Browne

    Can't beat Craig Doyle IMHO.

    Clarkson pulls it off and Cowell is a persona they say he's a top bloke off camera just ruthless.

    What's her name? Sarah Newman from Dragons den dererves to be cast into the sea for smugness too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,257 ✭✭✭Squiggle


    Paxman and Craig Doyle get my vote. At least Paxman as a brain but Doyle is a talentless, poncey looking wuss who is best suited to interviewing the likes of these guys.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 578 ✭✭✭30txsbzmcu2k9w


    Jack Whitehall. Or James Cordon.:mad::mad::mad:

    Charmless prats.

    This fellow:

    MarkLittle2.jpg

    was quite smug when he was still on Prime Time. Comes across even more in interviews. Pic says it all really.

    _1418446_doyle150.jpg <<< is the winner for me though.

    God, that picture tells a thousand words, doesn't it? Mostly, 'I'm just a straight-talking kinda guy who just wants to tell it like it is - even if BBC/GMTV flunkies want me to smarten myself up and knock the rough edges off me...'
    I thought he was okay on The Apprentice: You're Fired, and heard good things about him on The One Show, but then I actually saw him with Christina Bleakley, interviewing Delia Smith, and he was so snarky, and passive-aggressive towards blessed Delia that I had to turn over. Nobody disses our Delia...

    Male - Craig Doyle

    Female - Lorraine Keane

    I will always remember him trying to defend Boyzone on DFTG, "What Can I say?.... There a great band"

    Oh that egghead guy 'CJ' is insufferable, plus the oul' one egg head 'Daphne' who always gives this 'oh sure everyone knows that' look when anyone is asked a question.

    Craig Doyle seems very smug on those UPC ads and on the Panel. I enjoyed Adrian Chiles on The Apprentice You're Fired.

    more sanctimonious than smug , too unstable and incoherant anyhow


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 264 ✭✭TheManWho


    It's got to be TC, his complete disregard and contempt for the working class is astounding. I get that he's the boss, the pip and the championship, but a little respect goes a long way. Just look at him in the video completely mocking a hard working valet by tipping him with a coin on a string.

    don't forget Tom McGurk

    Great. Another thread for people to moan and complain about people who are making a success of their careers.

    Who said anything about begrudging them success? We just don't like them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Piers Morgan by a wide margin, although there are a few contenders mentioned in the thread too.

    Paxman, however, is a total legend. Anybody who called him smug is just plain wrong.

    It's valuable marketing material. If tv executives pay attention to what viewers like and don't like then they will get highter viewing figures.
