Title describes it perfectly. Really funny, hilarious Irish slang, if you're an American English speaker you'll likely have to watch with subtitles.

I am from the US, midwestern area and have no Irish roots or friends. Aside from needing to google the proper definition of 'craic' this show is pretty easy to understand (with subtitles but I have them on at all times anyway).

It is filmed similarly to and has the same dynamic as the Canadian show "Trailer Park Boys", but with its own unique characters, culture, story, and just overall attitude.

This show is absolutely hilarious and for me, relatable in all the crazy stupid shit the main characters get into. SADLY I see myself as such an Eddie Durkan!!!

I watched the initial webisodes on you tube and thought they were very good. I was skeptical of RTE taking over and thought the spontaneous improvise between Eddie and Buzz would have been curtailed. Maybe it was but none of the magic has been lost. This is most hilarious fresh humor to come from Irish comedy since Father Ted. The one liners, particularly from Buzz are gold. How they manage to do it with a straight face is a mystery. The ridiculousness of Chris Tordoff as the viper is a breath of fresh air. Great take on Irish rural life through the eyes of complete idiots who ooze charm. When you find yourself rooting for them you know you are being entertained with true escapism.

Great !

If you don't know anyone like Viper, you are probably Viper. Long live Viper!

I'm a bit late to the HB party, only discovered this recently.. couldn't stop laughing, season 2 is my favourite for sure. I'm from Glasgow and found the humour very similar to what we get at home.. anyway give it a bash!
