Desperate Housewives its just amazing. they have brillant plot lines that lead you guessing at whats gona happen next week. I have been watching from the staert i have all the series there amazing.

i also love Des Bishop what a legend hes so funny. He is brillant to go off and learn Irish and then to have a show in Irish. He is one of the best comedians ever.

Desperate Housewives ( I know not an Irish show but still on RTE) I’ve been into since it started, I think the plots are really engaging in a larger than life way. I also really loved Raw, total opposite of DH I know but equally good I loved the unrequited love story in it. I also really like the Panel. The rest of it I could leave.

langerland, easily

i’ve only discovered this show recently but my god is it amazing. i’m not one to be easily impressed by television, particularly what’s on rté, but this is brilliant.

i’d imagine it’s a good show to be on the writers’ team for, and the fun of the boardroom translates into the show itself. i wouldn’t be surprised if all they do is throw names and words into a hat and come up with jokes that way. where… is… bono… the edge’s hat. this is satire unrivalled even by the likes of jon stewart.

it’s surprisingly hard to come up with a cohesive and entertaining reason.. just take it from me that it’s a great show.

i’m also a devout fan of the other talent rté has somehow managed to nurture. andrew maxwell, both on the panel and on his own “smoke and mirrors” is a shining example of what i mean. his secret lies in the fact that he’s not afraid to not be funny. which ironically makes him even more so.

It is between The Tubridy Show and Podge and Rodge. Both are very entertaining with interesting guests, but I feel the batchelor boys from Ballydung Manor just shade it because they are prepared to ask the hard question. So, Podge and Rodge, by a whisker.

Fair City, without a shadow of a doubt. Ok, it gets its fair share of criticism, but it’s just so damn entertaining, and vastly superior to any of the grimly bland dross that comes out of the UK. Take that Terence guy, for instance (the Bond-esque villain who killed Lana and then blackmailed Leo). His fatal cliff-top struggle with Leo must go down as being the greatest soap death ever (Is he really dead though? Was the body ever found? I hope not). Better even than Miserable Mike frying himself in the Bistro.

And what about Rita? The actress who played her appears to have been replaced by a ‘bell’ sound effect. They could so easily have resorted to the laziest plot-device ever and just shipped her off to Australia or something, but oh no… Let’s just make her bedridden, out of sight, with occasional references to changing her nappy.

Soap does not get better than that.

Has to be the Late Late Show.
It had everything you never expected to ever see:

Ripping up of Prizes
Interviews with Satanic Sluts
Twink in her skivvies
The host laughing his head off at a Josef Fritzl joke
Risteard Cooper impersonating Pat Kenny in front of Pat Kenny
Jerry Seinfeld (Or Seinfield) being completely stuck for words
And many jokes from guests about Pat’s Land woes.

Sure he’s paid a lot, but it’s almost worth it for the moments of unintentional comedy cringeness.

Living with Lucy:

After making her fame by hosting the podge and rodge show, while getting abuse from the two boys, she really came into her own with her own star studded show ‘living with lucy’.

giving a bright insight into the inner lives of Irish A list celebrities such as twink… i mean adele king as she likes to be know, and as far streching to the wild antics of Senetor David Norris. which was just emotional.

I love living with Lucy…
