    No

    Considering the fella has 327,000 likes, I'd say Yes.

    Not nearly as funny as independent.ie would have you believe but some videos are amusing.

    I've watched a few, I'm kinda left scratching my head at the end waiting for the funny bit.
    What sort of money can he pull in for those 300k likes (does it even work that way)

    Necrotising fasciitis of the scrote would provide more chuckles

    Had to look him up...

    Colloquial observational comedy (I'm using 'comedy' in the loosest sense). It's easy comedy, lowest denominator stuff.

    Not for me I'm afraid. But the Mrs Browns Boys crowd love it, I'm sure.

    I don't find it funny but fair play to the lad,
    I believe he works in construction and does it on the side and plays GGA halls all over the country on the weekends dong stand up
    I think he even done a few gigs in OZ to

    Unfortunately there's no measure for how much something is disliked to balance that out.

    I really don't understand it myself but fair play to him I guess. I think the comparison with Mrs. Brown is accurate.

    Can't understand the dislike a small few people in AH have for Mrs. Brown, its absolutely hilarious!

    Can't understand the like a few people have for Mrs. Brown, it's atrocious.

    It wasn't funny 15 years ago when he was doing the stage show, the same jokes STILL aren't funny now.

    Some of them. I like some of the Ines he does with chanto. The valentines one, the fake tan and the handbag one.

    The massive success that it is would tend to disagree with you.

    Again, really shit things have won awards. I never take notice of whether the things I like have won anything. How many 'Best Picture' winners at the Oscars are bona fide classics?
