    RTE are now going to start showing that delightful program Jackass. My question being how long will it last before people see it and begin a protest to have it banned? Take into consideration that the sensorship board in Ireland consists of a Nun, a Priest and a Garda.

    Yeah people will complain, they may cut bits out or not show certain episodes.

    Great program though !

    Thing is the senorship board will just say that it will cause teenages to attempt the stunts. Cause you just know some dumb ass kid will try urban kyacking and get run over by a bus or something. And when that happens well u can guess what will happen then.

    yeah loads of people will be going " That's not right! That's not...AAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGGGGGGH"

    tis actually a good programme..imagine doing all that craic and then getting paid to do it...your man, johhny knowville, stood in front of a sledgehammer and it swung right into his balls!
    OW!

    Tis mad, but a good programme (especially when you're drunk ...the laughs that do be had).

    "hey cool, whats he about to do to tha.......
    em hmmmmmmmm eh............ oooo ooo ouch....... what the fúck, he's getting up to do it again?!!?"$£!£?!!!!......."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭schrodinger


    Nah they wont show them purely becasue those two are probably the best episodes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,494 ✭✭✭kayos

    Could you imagine parents seeing their kids watch other kids on TV kick Johnny in the nuts? (no pun inteded but thats his name!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭schrodinger


    They definately wont show the one where Johnny Noxville tries to have his granny stuffed and mounted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,389 ✭✭✭✭Saruman


    They WILL show the Skateboarding Umpa Lumpa.. that was funny

    I can picture it now: Stupid children everywhere kicking each other in the nuts. I would die laughing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,389 ✭✭✭✭Saruman


    Yup Nut kicking.. the new craze... Or someone deciding to reinact the Portaloo ep... only they do it to to some guy on the street hehe

    That guy rocks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭schrodinger


    I can picture it now a midget trying to row a fat man wrapped in bubble wrap accross the Liffey


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,912 ✭✭✭Washout


    The thing is that anybody and everybody who wants to watch it has probably seen each episode 1/2 a dozen times on MTV.

    Its on after WanderLust right? 80%who watches WanderLust or the BLizzard of Odd will probably have already seen the episodes on MTV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭schrodinger


    Yeah but u can never get enough of it. ANd you never know it may force MTV to get some new episodes which will put pressure onto the Jackass crew and just to please the viewers they will have to come up with some crazy ass **** to top their previous shows.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,304 ✭✭✭✭koneko


    I love the way this put this funny warning on now. Do not attempt these stunts by yourself, or with any of your dumb buddies.
    Something along those lines :)

    It's funny. You gotta admit that.

    Knowing RTE they will have to show the dislcaimer for about 20 mins before the show just to make sure that the slower range of Ireland's population dont think about actually relicationg the stunts.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 825 ✭✭✭MarcusGarvey


    What are you on about ? RTE and the censor board here are generally more liberal than most other countries, especially for Television.

    They showed Die Hard at 8pm one Wednesday ffs. Yippy ka yaye etc

    jackass is so boring. They could maybe get two full episodes og good stuff from the past two years worth of crap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭schrodinger


    Blaspheme!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,097 ✭✭✭kiffer


    hum , as long as they're showing it late and uncut I'll watch them all again ... Mtv is anoying the BLEEP out of me , I mean at two in the BLEEPING morning do they still have to bleep out the BLEEPING curse words and as blurr out any thing that might be considered sexual ... such as a thong, , the other thing thats really get on my nerves is that when the bleep out curse word they blur out the face.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,163 ✭✭✭✭Boston


    I find the program boring and stupid , but im all for it being on rte,
    my logic is that, morons will watch it, and you know, moron see, moron do, better they die young and tin out the socially retarded among us now, leave more room for the socially arrogant (wwm) and the socially condescending(castor troy)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 209 ✭✭Johnny Gomez


    U ppl really think that RTé are going to take it off the air or cut it or whatever?Two examples of what ppl might consider too "extreme"-The Soprano's and Band Of Brothers,do u think these programs are going to be banned any time soon?No because there HUGE ratings and Jackass won't be any different

    RTE ruined the Fast Show by showing it, and now they'll do the same with Jackass. It's only funny when a select clique of viewing elite know the injokes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 730 ✭✭✭Irish_Ranger_IR


    Its Class, last night they had 2 blokes eating as many boiled eggs as they could, 1 bloke eat 39, but the 2 of them puked every 30 seconds in to a bucket, and by standers were getting sick then.......

    Or the Bloke who swollows cheese, ham, butter and eggs, peppers and other stuff, then pukes it up into a frying pan and cooks an omlet, then eats it......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    I doubt MTV will show new episodes. I heard that they stopped making Jackass. Knoxvile quit.
    RTÉ probably wont cut it. The only station I know that really cuts things to shreds is ITV or UTV whatever you wanna call it. They cut every film

    You haven't seen the "Sperm Olympics" one then I take it...
    The egg one was a tribute to Cool Hand Luke btw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    oh yeah the sperm olympics. wasnt knoxville the one with the lowest count and kosick the most potent lol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    Jackass was cancelled by MTV a while back now everyone is doing their own thing by releasing their own Vids and trying to make a few squid.
    I also heard a crazt rumour that Johnny, Stev O and Wee man were in a car wreck a few weeks back and that Wee Man is dead and Steve O lost his legs, Madness!

    Bomb


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭schrodinger


    I've heard rumours about wee-man being dead but that was because he was doing the loop stunt and he fel and broke his neck. I hadn't heard anything about a car. BAH! I say to rumours.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,478 ✭✭✭GoneShootin


    Yippy ka yaye etc

    it may have been on at 8, but they cut out two parts that came to mind as i watched it

    1) the actual slitting of the new recruits throat in the lorry. I remember seeing the knife with the blood and the neck and dieing humnyaa

    2) Yippy Kay Yay "MOTHERFU.CKER" was edited to just Ypiiy Kay Yay. I mean, it was so weak without it !!

    Jackass is a great laugh when you've nothing else better to be doin. I must say the stapling of JACKASS to that guys butt was quite the larf
