The Mario Rosenstock Show is really an ironic tribute to RTE's comic muse that produced such timeless classics as Leave it to Mrs O'Brien and Upwardly Mobile

It's grand on the radio, it just doesn't translate to television very well. It's partly down to having to extend many of the sketches especially for the tv. And it just doesn't work. He uses the same formula over and over again, meaning the gags just become tired.

For a nation so renowned for our sense of humour and wit, we really cannot do TV comedy for shíte.

There was one sketch about Alan Shatter that was totally totally bollix altogether. The Jose/Davey Fitz sketch was worse.

Fair enough, Marty did look realistic and creepy, but hardly strong enough to hold up a pile of sh1te.

And anyone who can do it has fled to better shores.

Thankfully I also missed Jason Byrnes new sitcom on the Beeb

Was Mario's show worse than that?

Was home for the weekend and had the unfortunate luck to watch the show along with Damo and Ivor and sat there with a stony, straight face for the duration of the two programmes which is not an easy feat for me. I desperately wanted to like them (I like Mario usually) being home for the weekend and being all sentimental about Ireland and the "craic" and our sense of humour and all that. Two absolute abominations. How can a nation with so many funny people make comedy so incredibly diabolic? Cringe City, Arizona.

I thought it was pure muck as well. Such a chronic impression of Marty Morrissey, it's like he's not even trying to get the voice right.

The thing about Ronan O'Gara was a bit... weird.
