    As opposed to all the Irish comedians who base their comedy around being from Ireland?

    "IT'S MAD CAUSE IT'S IN IRELAND!!! WE'RE IRISH, SURE WE'RE MAD. THEY DON'T DO MAD THINGS LIKE US IN EUROPE, BUT WE DO CAUSE WE'RE MAD, CAUSE WE'RE IRISH!" etc. etc.

    Do we really have that many? Thought it was just Tiernan and Bishop and both of them are effectively done as comedians in the eyes of the most.

    Kielty used to base his entire gig around the 'RA and NI but recently his stuff has been funnier and less NI-centric.

    Des Bishop and his routine.

    FYP

    He's been living in Ireland for at least 23 years now, you'd think he'd have gotten used to the differences between Ireland and America.

    Most comedians routines can be summed up in one sentence

    John Bishop - I've got a Liverpool accent.
    Peter Kay - Who remembers stuff from 1986?
    Tommy Tiernan - I'm from Navan and I used to go to mass.
    Michael McIntyre - I went to a dinner party last night, then had awkward sex with my wife.

    Dara O'Briain and the Bible. But in fairness to him he makes up new stuff about the Bible quite often so eh fair play to him I guess.

    Karl Spain was in two gigs I saw in Kilkenny in consecutive years. In both he did the "If you don't know who the fúcking egit is in your group of friends, you're the fúcking egit!" routine.

    And no, I didnt get a refund!

    Apart from that hes a sound fella and a great commentator of bad football.

    Plenty of Irish people love to hear how 'mad' we are compared to those from other countries. Des Bishop taps right into that.

    Frequent a few comedy clubs around Dublin and you'll see a lot of the mad Irish stuff being trotted out. Sometimes it's done well, a lot of the time it's lazy and boring.

    Never heard O'Briain do anything on the Bible and I've seen him live about 5 times.

    Seen Andrew Maxwell say the same joke about some monkey escaping from Dublin zoo twice. It wasn't funny the first time and it still wasn't funny the second time. It was like an article you'd read in thejournal.

    Michael McIntyre's jokes about his kids.

    I must say that Catherine lynch is less funnier . Her jokes are terrible and the gay side kick is just a joke .

    I read that and I could hear Tommy Tiernan saying it
