The Tonight Show - Virgin Media One

someone from the canteen maybe? I never saw or heard of him in my life yet he has been given this programme and is beyond useless, boring and inept. Soft, stupid questions a child would ask. As a result I havent looked at The Tonight Show since he has been presenting it on a regular basis, the first one or two viewings were enough. (I just look at this thread!).

I get too annoyed at the way politicians are left of the hook in this country for everything! Ditto Claire Byrne with Micheal Martin yesterday (going by all accounts as I didn't listen to that either :-)) Its infuriating. Pat Kenny will be sorely missed as he had an edge that none of these presenters have, except Sarah McInerney perhaps? Which means politicians just keep getting away with stuff with no accountability.

Gibbons is a pompous prick. Fair play to Fitzmaurice for standing up to him

Coleman doing a decent enough job.

I was hoping he would have quizzed the SD one on their statement yesterday that they would be able to have free GP care for everyone by 2030.

A GP was interviewed on Newstalk and basically said this was unrealistic and unworkable.

I find him a bit arrogant and the mask slips very quickly on topics he has an opinion on.

He is a much better polished presenter then the last few I will give him that.

Good discussion tonight, Boyd Barrett would do your head in!

He's off his trolley or he hasn't an ounce of sense inside that head of his.

Strange because only a few years ago VMTV axed Monday night edition of The Tonight Show. I suspect the cash injection from the public to VMTV might have help with VMTV's appetite.

It only took them 7 months to realizes the show went off the air. And just a month after that nice grant given to them from the public.

He goes on about being more of a conversation and really is selling the idea that it is different to Tonight and other CA shows. (IMO most shows have become tiresome conversations with the same panelists).

Interesting he watch WWE perhaps if the just sat down and had a conversation more people might start watching it! He quoted a guy I went to college with "Yeah, so is Coronation Street and EastEnders… you know they’re all scripted too, right?" Indeed but perhaps if they were less confrontational I might start watching again !

Poor auld what's her name is just a forgot speck of a presenter you know the one she took over from the Frontline and that other show!

I thought Brock and Doherty were good presenters on the show.

Always assumed it was their own decision to leave.

First Episode of Monday doesn't make VMTV ONE's top twenty getting less then 70K behind mid-week episodes of Ireland AM.

If he was going after the Q&A/Frontline/Claire Byrne/Upfront audience then he should have got an audience in.
