London Irish

While the plot of a group of friends hanging out and drinking is nothing new, this show literally made me laugh out loud in every episode. I found the characters and jokes very funny. Yes, the Irish stereotype is there, and yes the characters are exaggerated for comic effect, but that is what comedy is - exaggerated real life. I enjoyed it, and was sorry the was only 1 season.

If Lisa McGee is writing it, I'm watching it. This show is absurd, laugh-out-loud funny, pathetic, somewhat revolting & just wonderful viewing! You can see the relationship between this show & the equally hysterical Derry Girls (another Lisa McGee creation) in the writing & characters. In fact two of the actors have appeared in episodes of Derry Girls. I hate that there were only 6 episodes.

I love this show! Great writing and acting. Wish there were more episodes!

Am absolutely gutted that there is only one series of this. I watched it when I had a breakdown and was under section. Watching this each week really made me laugh and I told the other patients about it and once we all watched episode 2 in the television room it became something that we all watched together every week which was the only programme that we did as it was just that good and despite our varied tastes in tv this brought us altogether and despite our personal sad troubles we all laughed and enjoyed it. Really don't know why they only did the one and although I very much enjoy Derry Girls which is by the same people, I still live in hope that they might rekindle this maybe with a new cast who could take over the pub if the original cast wouldn't work. If you like Father Ted or Derry Girls then you will love this!

That there was only six episodes is a travesty. I just found this show and it's awesome. Twisted, and brilliantly awesome. Damn I wish there were more of this. So much better than typical comedy blah. Just brilliant.
