The Simpsons has been passed its sell by date for a good twenty years now, twice as long as it was relevant!

Unfortunately I'd say it's still a majority that want to keep it, if a poll and discussions I've seen on this are to be believed. Even after all the Catholic horror stories we've heard lately.
I think people relate to it as part of their Irish identity or something and see getting rid of it as woke nonsense.

A shame really because the earlier episodes were some of the best TV I've ever watched. The last 15 years have been garbage.

The Masked Singer. Dreadful.
It’s popularity is beyond me.

Mrs. Brown's Boys, never left the starting block.

Anything featuring Anna Geary, some glare off her gnashers.

To be fair, there have only been two series of it.

What is it then?
An ad break for God?

Perhaps we could replace the Angelus with the restoration of this.

If you take out the ones that don't pay for the tv licence, OAPs, then I would think that the majority would be happy to see the back of it

Have you seen The Angelus lately ?
It's far more "reflective" than Catholic.
