I really liked this series, a great Irish comedy / drama. Good characters and an easy to follow plot.

Not meant to be the best but enjoyable .

I thought Brenda Frickers monologue was great.

I thought this was terrific with great characters. I'm on the west coast of Scotland rather than in Ireland but I recognise the setting and attitudes and find them all to be believable.maybe you have to have a rural Celtic or Northern background to fully appreciate the mild humour and the secrets and the shame etc.

I also enjoyed seeing people, especially the women, who look real with real looks and figures - normal, pleasant, naturally attractive people and no one tottering around in farms and in the countryside in high heels. And it was great to see a mature romance between less than svelte people.

I very much hope there will be a second series.

I loved how this gave a real sense of rural Ireland and its people and quirks. Coming from this environment and culture I can testify to the verisimilitude, and my Irish Mammy says the same, so it must be true!

I've only seen 3 episodes so far as that is all that is streaming in Australia, but I really like it! It's comedic and lighthearted but still deals with serious topics and has some good drama. The acting is good, the characters are flawed and realistic. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest - I might leave another review once I'm done just in case I change my mind!

Anything with Conleth Hill and Brenda Fricker has to be worth watching.

You can find faults with every over hyped drama on television these days.

Just keep to simple story telling.
