    For me i can look at honorific photos or watch scary movies but you turn on one of those really bad embarrassing movies like american pie or superbad and i find myself pausing the movie going oh god oh god what the **** is he doing! It's like worse then physical pain. What's your cringe?

    Surely you mean children 'full stop'. The extraa stop is superfluous.

    Any RTE production.

    The Office (UK) is the king of this. Also Peep Show isn't far off.

    Parts of Extra's had me cringing, can vouch for Peep Show aswell, legend of a show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 390 ✭✭happyfriday


    The Office.

    The audition process of any of shows like the Xfactor. (Can't actually bare to watch them)

    Then there are loads that are cringy in a way that makes me want to be sick i.e 'Fair City' 'Emmerdale' 'The Late Late Show' and anything which involves Gerry Ryan and Ray D'arcy, and lots, lots more but can't think of them all!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 280 ✭✭NedTermo

    Fawlty Towers, no matter how many times I see an episode.

    Paedophile shít. I just can't watch it and makes me so uneasy. Movies like The Woodsman and One Hour Photo. They just give me a weird feeling. Even films that don't have that theme but show some old dude getting close to a kid. Like Half Nelson, he just wanted to help the girl but kept coming off like he wanted to help him the feckin dirty fecker.

    One Hour Photo is hardly a pedo film, Little Children is another uncomfortable film to watch but it's very good.

    Leonardo Di Caprio. Even his voice makes me cringe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,564 ✭✭✭Daroxtar


    Gavin Lambe Murphy. He's like having your eyelashes pulled off while having a catheter inserted.

    Everything about Robin Williams character screamed paedophilic traits. That's what Romanek was using to create the tension. I mean the theme of it is what makes me cringe. I wouldn't be watching anything if it was showing straight up acts of it.

    The pedo in family guy weirds me out so much.

    The Irish Apprentice, oh good god. I would have said anything Steve Coogan does, but this is just so much worse. It's an absolute horror show. It's like being brought through a concentration camp.
