Featured reviews
Awful awful "jokes''- am-dram writing Cringe worthy performances Who green-lit this turd! among the worst programs RTE has commissioned/broadcast Why did i watch a second episode? to see if it could possibly be as bad as the previous! I wont be paying a license fee in future Need to write ten lines for this review so i'm filling up space at this stage because i cant be bothered writing any more about that awful TV show Need to write more lines because the minimum is ten can you believe that- IMDb force you to write a minimum of ten lines for a review- its like being back in school again- you can't even swear! it edits out your commentary- the web is as bad as that terrible RTE show
I watched the first 2 episodes and it was annoyed me it was so unfunny. Really bad no humour flat comedy. Domhnall Gleeson had a few funny tics, Michael McElhatton is a great comedy actor (Paths to Freedom): as is Peter McDonald, but this sketch show was so sketchy on comedy it made me want to throw up. I think I got it removed from RTE it was so bad. Not even good bad, just bad. Should just have been called Your Bad Comedy Show.
I was so utterly appalled by the quality of this so called 'comedy' that I was compelled to write a review.
Now after seeing 2 episodes I can honestly say that it is the worst comedy I have ever seen, let alone sketch comedy. The sketches shown were (with the notable exception of 2 mildly funny sketches) predominantly badly written, poorly acted, and displayed almost no discernible knowledge of comic timing or comedic conventions. Furthermore, of the sketches I saw there was clearly no thought put into seemingly all but 2 of them. They are poorly executed versions of incomplete and (it would appear) hastily written scripts that should never have been filmed to begin with.
That this show was green-lit, let alone made into a 6 series show, is despicable.

I disagree with some of the other posts, but opinions vary and so do peoples sense of humour.
I loved the show and after reading some of the negative reviews I really felt the need to write this, I'm not one for the American sit coms and it was refreshing to actually see funny content in Your Bad Self instead of boring dialogue accompanied with canned laughter that most sit coms provide.
I would consider myself a harsh critic when it comes to comedy, but maybe I just have a sick sense of humour... I've seen the clips for this show on YouTube and I find it very, very funny! I've recognised some of the actors and rate this as one of the funniest comedy sketch shows around, you can tell the actors had a ball while filming it. The sketches provide a variety of hilarious situations so there is something for everybody, and I have laughed out loud at a lot of the content. I do admit not all sketches are hilarious, but I found most are.
Definitely worth a watch if you love a laugh, I rate this 10 out of 10, just wish they filmed more seasons.

I watched clips of your bad self on YouTube. In my opinion, this show was dreadful, amateurish and not remotely funny. I felt like I was watching paint dry during the few episodes I saw.
RTE said it featured performances from some of the country's best comic actors, but I had never heard of any of them apart form Amy Huberman. On a positive note, I do think Amy Huberman is a very talented actress.
In my opinion, The Savage Eye is a far superior comedy show with much better acting and talent. A pity, as I was hoping to enjoy the online clips. Hopefully, we will get to see a lot more of David McSavage on our screens.
The show consisted of a bad attempt at black comedy that went wrong. Each to their own when it comes to comedy, but I would not recommend this show.
