sorry, but Mrs. Brown is not good homegrown humour.

perhaps i'm the odd one out, but i've never liked Brendan O'Carroll.

I think it is awful too. I always liked Brendan O'Carroll in standup at his dirty, filthy best. Dressed up as a woman though just doesn't do it for me.

It's actually almost enmbarrassing.

Of all the material we've produced it's this bollox that gets picked up for tv. Couldn't believe it when I saw the ad last week.

Surely you mean imported humour as you are in Australia. Do you have any Tayto crisps left?

down the international isle in woolies actually, along with the club orange and mikado :pac:

Ha! fair play, at least they know their market.

seachto7

Have it and keep it! And keep Vogue and Brian too!!:)

O Connor is to the same target market of Dubs as D'Unbelieveables and Tommy Tiernan are to the same target market of country folks.

At least on Wednesday nights Northbridge, St Kilda and Bondi will all fall silent for an hour.

I have yet to see it but I will

I didnt watch it when I was in Ireland and wont watch it here either but from chatting to the locals in work last Thursday they all loved it. They were raving about it and the most common comment... 'I was pissing myself laughing'

Home as in my Home as in Ireland as i am Irish and yes i am imported too .

As for Tayto and Mcfadden and Vogue?you can bin them!

I get a laugh from it in the midweek and no i never got to watch it in Ireland and probably just didn't bother but now i feel more inclined to watch it and can relate to some of the gags in it coming from that part of the world and it's an alternative view to what is on offer on the tv which i enjoy.

Anyone catch Michael Mcintyres Comedy Roadshow the other week it was in the Olympia theater and Mr Tiernan was on,was a good laugh.

In fairness I'd rather watch Ms browns Boys then 'please marry my boy' or any off the other muck they show on Aussie TV..

Zambia

I watched that it was not bad, quite funny to be honest.

As people have said a lot worse tripe on TV

ObviouslyJesus

australian tv is dire, wall to wall 'talent' shows,‘celebs’ skating on ice, brian mcfaddens fat hairy mush appearing on every second bus, his girlfriend opening boxes on deal or no deal and now this jackeen tit embarrassing the nation. Sums up Aussie entertainment to be fair

hussey

Yeah all the free to air stations spend most of their budget on sport. Even sport is chocked full of ads.

Sunnyisland

Just to add there is a movie coming out soon :eek:


Brendan O'Carroll says that he wants U2 to appear in the new Mrs Brown Boys movie.

Best station on FTA is SBS and ABC. Most of the other stuff is rubbish apart from some NFL on ONE HD!

In fairness, I dont mind it. The only TV I watch now a days is good TV that I choose to watch (Modern family, Sons of Anarchy, Good Wife etc..). I allow myself a few vices in watching Amazing Race and MKR. Other than that I am begining to get back in the habit of reading rather than spending hours gawping at some twat singing on TV. On my 3rd book so far this week! Win Win!

Mr. High and Mighty,

Jackeen tit just won a BAFTA in the UK and is now PROVEN to be one of the best Irish comedians of his generation. If you have nothing good to say, say nothing at all. Jackeen tit, me arse and that's being polite!! Go and contribute to a forum more suited to your comments, like after hours or very rural Ireland affairs.
Sorry, Hussey, very very fumed!

ellaq

The adverts killed me so I don't think I will watch it in future, on tv at least. I saw abc online had it as a pre-order for $28.00, think I might use this option.

Easy to partition views that are opposed to your own. Remind you of anythin sinister in the last 20 years in Ireland? Get a life ( and preferably not here where decent people feel they need to indulge you). look forward to not meeting you in Ireland.

you're comparing the troubles to people thinking brendan carroll is nothing more than an unfunny west brit . jesus :eek:

hussey

Mod Enough you two. Or next one is a red. And enough of these 'jackeen' and 'west brit' jibes, it's insulting
