Not to crap on your joke, but are you implying Ciara Kelly is some kind of 'hottie'?

I'm uglier than the guy in the picture, but are you gonna really wheel that meme out for someone like Ciara?
Really?

Michael Parkinson.

I watch a lot of talk-show clips of Carson, Cavett etc.
There was a lot of interesting guests during that era.

Parkinson always comes across as a cowardly type of bigot.
The uneasy mix of pandering and moralizing is hard to watch.

Apologies if it wasn’t you.

...not me mate ....did have a rather fetching tonsure and "tidy up" in the scrotal area .....just for hygiene purposes though.

Well worth having if over there ....

Cavett's been a revelation. Wasn't alive when he was on tv, but he got a lot of interesting info out of his guests.
Not to crap on Carson, btw. I find Carson interesting.

But for me, Cavett get's people to reveal a lot in a very 'welcome to my living room' kind of interview style. It's a different style that's rare to see nowadays.

I actually wouldn't even say skanger, he doesn't even look threatening in that regard. His face just has a constant look on it. Expression less.

Yep, 'blank space' acting... the likes Ryan Gosling does often.

People think it's 'fantastic acting', when really you can put any music or soundtrack behind it, and get a different meaning in any scene, no matter what.

Keogh's got less expression than a clothes store mannequin.

She's been very helpful on Instagram lately- posting lots of information for people regarding work situations and actually finding stuff out for people when they ask. Helped loads of people figure our their entitlements for social welfare etc.

As far as I can tell she just reads out the advice available on Citizen Information and HSE websites, she has no more inside to these things than anyone, if her followers were not increasing as a result I doubt she would be so helpful?

seems like a nice person but i'm suspicious that her twitter followers are being used as an experiment. For example she'd proclaim a feckin stupid pop song as the greatest song of the 90's and then vanish, so obviously "men" bombard with their views such as radiohead and teen spirit etc (90's had a high standard in fairness" and to me it looked like research for a book or something!

I just get an off feeling about her, seems to be a contradiction on social media. Maybe your hitting the nail on the head there with that theory about using social media as an investigative tool for writing.

Yah, pity for a writer she feels the need to peddle herself so much on social platforms.

She seems to think she is an oracle for a generation.

There are sooo many like that. I'd blame that vacuous scumbag waste of space otherwise known as Lena Dunham for starting that s**t, but I feel like she's a symptom of the disease, not the virus itsself.

Part of me thinks it's youtube, part of me thinks its social media, but really it's any twit you put in front of a camera will come out with some proselytizing crap.

Well to be fair Lena Dunham would be talented, painful but a talented writer. Stefaine just likes to tell us how she doesn't like people and says No to social activity unless the wedding is going to be in RSVP !

Talented is not a word I'd associate with Dunham. Her episode of the Simpsons (which I believe she helped write, even uncredited) is utter dog-s**t.
First season of Girls got a lot of attention, second season was a ratings flop that continued to slide downhill.

Plus,folks forget Dunham started out on youtube, but never had to struggle because her parents are rich and already in the film industry. (It's why Dunham's first film is on the Criterion collection).

That's sad about Preissner... she genuinely seemed down to earth. Sad to see the 'Can I just say no' doesn't apply when it comes to her profile, or a fiver in her pocket.
I remember her appearance on the Late Late Show (alongside John Connors') sort of showed how out of touch she was. (Talking about having a GP, a Psychiatrist,etc etc, and how that should be the normality for everyone).

I love women... to quote Chris Rock 'My mom was a woman, so that helps'.

I just don't like hypocrites. And I've seen too many of those in my short time on this planet. (Even if I live to be 2000, that would still be tiny chunk of time of this planet's existence).

Hyprocrites are every gender, and I don't like them.

she did amuse me when she discovered the inner city kids mode of entertainment (literally dating back to the vikings) of jumping in the liffey, for the first time and went on social media like she uncovered something huge!
I'm not saying it's clever or safe jumping in the river from a height, but it was the millennial "omg look what i've just discovered this is an outtage" that amused me
