London Irish

Lobe this show! So funny and each character has something brilliant about them and is equally funny. Just superb, however when I started watching it on Prime the photo has Season One on it implying there would be more so I was disappointed to discover only the 6 episodes existed. Definitely worth a watch. One review here said that it was like It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia gone wrong but I couldn't disagree more, not only is it nothing like it but I persevered with quite a bit of It's Always Sunny and at best only found it mildly amusing.

I had to have the captions on to catch the dialogue but have watched the entire season multiple times-still funny. One of the best lines IMHO- Conor: " I went to therapy" Packy: "No mate, that was a job interview"

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!

...the characters of Friends had kids with the characters of Shameless after a drunk night in Vegas, and the kids were born in Belfast, and they moved to London and met at in pub instead of a coffee shop. I love it.

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.
