Am I missing something?

These songs being performed have been on previous 'Mooney Tunes' - why pay money to hear them again?

Yep.

This folksy bull appears to have reached it's sell by date if the sluggish ticket sales are anything to go by.

First time he's spoke of the Eurovision since the last competition.
There was an uncanny blanket silence after the last contest.
He wouldn't even MENTION it!!!
And that was after a big 6 month build up and incessant guests/spokespeople/opinions etc.
Including the whole Mooney experience broadcasting from the show and Mooney flirting with the winner.
Has enough time gone by I wonder.
For me....no. It hasn't.

Welsh Megaman

Did I hear that right?

Tubs doesn't want Eurosong on the LLS anymore?

Finding a scoreboard that goes higher than 100 points would be a good start :pac:

How many times must Mooney play Mascagni's Intermezzo?? I used to like that piece of music, but I'm sick to death of it now.


PS: Other pieces of classical music are available.

Oh not the "singing" in the shower BS again.....

Derek, the man who earns over €200k a year doesn't believe in buying people wedding and birthday presents :rolleyes:

The producers in RTE are deplorable, there just recycling the same old ****e every few months on Mooney's show now.

Is there anyone in charge there?

Fair play to Mooney for encouraging people to watch Oliver Callan's show.. Callan start every Mooney sketch on the show with "I'm Derek Mooney, and I earn two hundred and twenty grand a year"... I thought Mooney would have been more likely to encourage people to avert their gaze so as to take attention away from his own wages..

I think he likes the attention....I'd say he earns more "as he and Blath have a contract".....apparently.....as she likes to tell us...again and again..

The "more attention the merrier" I'd say as far as Derek is concerned....

And good luck to him with it. I'd like a contract like that.

Not suprised, to be honest. He does like to beat his drum.

"The presenter adopted a partizan position".. lol

constitutionus

CountyHurler

The Bible eh, Derek.. what about the 12th commandment. "Thou shalt not ram thyne own opinions down the throat of others".

baldbear

Ha well done Mooney, ya langer ya.

Lapin

Del is very eager to hammer home the fact that there are two sides represented in this debate.

At the end of the day, what are the consequences of a BAI complaint being upheld, apart from the possible embarrassment caused to the presenter? Not much really.
Perhaps if the presenter had 5% of their salary deducted every time a complaint was upheld against them, then Derek and Joe might learn the lesson of objectivity directly through their wallets.

Maybe get Mooney to present another program that is anti gay marriage, to return the equilibrium..

Simplistic Generalizations?? On the Mooney Show??? Well, I never...

Ah Harry, that's terrible heartless!...Poor Derek and Joe would be on skid row with only cabbages to kick by the time you'd be finished with them.....:pac::pac::pac:
