Fair City

I don't know how they manage to make it so bad. Every scene in the show goes exactly the same way. Actor walks in, regurgitates lines, reply from other actor, actor walks out. The actors aren't particularly bad, I've seen them in other stuff and they can act (sort of).

I can't say I could focus on the show long enough to pick up any plots, but what I've seen has been boring and painful. I do know one guy is dying of cancer at the moment, which you can only feel good about because all the actors play the worst of Dublin snobs that you just want to see die in the most horrible ways.

It's like going to visit your granny as a child and sitting in the middle of a group of old women talking about knitting, bunions or putting tea bags on their eyes. You just want to chew the table and pull your eyes out of your head.

On the plus side there may be adds on the other channels that provide better entertainment value than this half arsed tripe.

If this series wasn't paid for by the public it would've been cancelled in its first week!!!! Seriously it's CRAP!!!!!

What a cast!If talent were electricity,they'd have enough to power up a city!Not a real city,obviously,but a tiny ant city,whose government has recently passed a series of stringent energy conservation laws.How this tripe managed to get on TV in the first place is quite befuddling.God awful.The older cast,I get the feeling,randomly wandered on to the set one day,and the producers hadn't the heart to ask them to leave.Their acting would suggest as much,because they certainly didn't come with any formal training.Or personality.Not that professional training is a must,but when half the cast look like something you'd get to haunt a house,and the other younger members are as wooden as the rest,with about as much talent too,it'd be nice to have something to fall back on,but in the case of 'Fair City',you'll be falling onto lazy,dumb, writing,and directing that would get you lost,even if all that was needed was a simple hello.Bloody awful.

This is used as a form of torture in my house. If you misbehave you have to watch an episode😪

This Show is terrible. Everything - the "acting", "writing" etc are cringe-worthy. The fact that this show is even let on the air should be considered a war-crime its that bad. Even the sets are really cheap looking and sometimes when you watch the "actors" walk around, you can see the whole set shaking!!! The show is an embarrassment to everyone involved and that includes anyone that watches the show - for it is them who keep this tripe on the air. I could go on more about it but the very thought of watching this show makes me feel like vomiting! It blows my mind that this show is so popular! But I guess there's no accounting for some peoples taste, is there?
