    Well, the difference is Killinaskully was a home produced program, by an Irish production company.

    TYO is financed and produced by a British company. It's why its so much better than the crap RTE produced, like Damo and Ivor.

    The 'music' in some ads actually hurts your brain.
    God be with the days when they tried to come up with pleasing jingles that were easy on the ear.

    Most ads now have crappy piano cover songs trying to make them seem so deep and meaningful. Yawn.

    The ad they stick in between the news and weather, your one leaving her gloves on the bus to Birr. The bus interior and seats look like they date from the 1970s.

    Those too, but I was thinking more of the horrible rap and drum and bass type of stuff. Dissonant is the only way to describe it, listening to it gives me the same experience as when the dentist drills your tooth.

    That must be why Mrs. Browns Boys is so good. It's because the BBC make it.

    There are always anomalies along the way....

    I have no idea why that's successful. But imagine how much worse it would be with RTe involved.

    That just for women car insurance ad drives me mental. The woman doing the voiceover has the most ridiculous annoying accent I’ve ever heard. I’ve actually started fantasising about punching her. There’s also an ad for a new tv show called Normal People and it’s unbelievably boring. It definitely would turn you off watching the show. These two along with COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE are driving me insane.

    What's the ad with the two women in the car talking to the insurance company? "Thanks Niall".

    The one on the left keeps widening her eyes when she talks, it really irritates me.

    It reminds me of the Muppet Show.

    Oh sweet Jesus that ad from the morning show crowd is so irritating. Do we really need Glenda Gilson and that load of gob****es telling us how to social distance (I hate that phrase) every single ad break. If we don’t know by now we’ll never know. Then there’s “thanks buddy” from Vodafone constantly too.

    I didn't even know what that ad was for, the 'thanks budd-ay' one. I think my eyes glaze and my ears close when it comes on.

    I just thought of another one. It’s the horrible Uncle Bens ad. Potato po-tat-oh to-MA-to tomato. Horrible.

    That ad is absolutely dreadful. Never in my life have I heard anyone saying po-tat -oh, give them two months and they’ll be killing each other.

    When the mother gets flowers and a portal from her son and daughter for her birthday and she doesn't even say thanks, just goes 'oh...right' :mad:
    Hey ma, guess what I'm getting you next year? Sweet fanny addams!

    I dunno about you, but round where I live, there've been plenty of cold mornings and nights due to low temps.

    If I lost my gloves, I'd be raging.

    Oh jesus yeah...

    That and the 'they know what a woman wants' or some s**t....

    No, no they don't-they just 'tell' you what you think you want. It's marketing 101.

    I imagine they have to keep her employed in some way-no Xpose, no real reason to be there.

    Her 5-packs of cigarettes a day voice is irritating tho.

    the two of them sound absolutely desperate for a man, getting excited at 30 years of age talking to a man on the phone, jesus. the hysterics of laughing when they hang up. but in fairness the one on the left is kind of cute, and i really cant put my finger on it.
