Your Bad Self

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.

I found the premise interesting but the jokes were third rate. RTE, This is a waste of the license payers money.

This show is not funny. Tommy Tiernan, Jason Byrne or Des Bishop are the guys you need to make a Comedy show.

I'm sorry, but the jokes were pretty bad, it was cringe-worthy. Whoever gave this show the green light needs their head examined.

Can't fault the acting though, that was very good. It just looked like they had a bad script to contend with. I've never given a review a vote of 2/10, so I'm not going to start now... though i'm tempted:-) So, I'd say the good points were the acting, Domhnall Gleeson is a great actor, but the bad points would have to be the script, producing and directing end of things..

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 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 admit I'm reviewing this show only because the previous two reviewers gave the show such bad reviews. I didn't watch every episode but the ones I saw were a bit of a mixed bag.

With a multi-character show with mostly very short sketches it is inevitable that you will get some sketches that are just not funny. This is certainly the case here with some repeated characters such as the South African mother not very funny.

However there were also some very funny ideas and characters. Perhaps they makers were under pressure to make a certain number of episodes and some items that might have been left out were kept in for this reason. Anyway it was a refreshing change to see some new faces on RTE, rather than the usual suspects.

Not bad for a first series. Hopefully the powers that be will bring them back for another series that might be even better.
