    Anyone watching this? What do you think? In my opinion, not great so far.

    His bit on Garth Brooks was brilliant. I laughed so hard at that and snorted my drink of vodka.

    Never laughed so hard with the Garth Brooks and Christmas day cancelled.

    It's awful.

    He's okay in small doses but a whole hour is too much. He's much better on radio.

    Quite enjoyed the Vincent Browne bit. The bands playing is a bit jarring.

    I'm a massive fan of Mario. The Gift Grub live show was fantastic. But this Christmas special is afwul.

    Surprised someone as unfunny as him has a tv show.

    Most of these radio "comedians" are brutal.

    How the hell is that rubbish supposed to pass as entertainment?

    Was an awful show. The Gleesons bit was awful. Very few moments of laughter.

    I saw a bit of this last nite... I thought it was desperately poor... The Marty Morrissey stuff was particularly bad.. put on a tan and a suit and you're Marty apparently...

    I think the fact that Oliver Callan has really upped his game recently just makes Mario Rosenstock look worse..

    It was really bad, most of it old jokes rehashed.

    Mario and his act is just stale. Dire stuff. Resorting now to swearing to try and get a laugh. Utter crap!

    Not sure how this boring act sells tickets to his show at all.

    Aye it was pretty abysmal.

    Rude Tube was on straight after it on Ch4 and had a million more laughs.

    Also Adam Buxton had a xmas special on Sky Arts which was Oscar worthy compared to this rubbish, and it was all done in his "shed":pac:

    Stick to the radio Mario.

    Absolutely, didn't like them characters or indeed the whole show was mediocre for me anyhow.

    No way it should of been on a hour, only 5 minutes were funny, the rest dire.
