Your Bad Self

Another dreadful so called comedy show from RTE - Ireland's national broadcaster and what a waste of license payers money this awful show is. I have watched it twice (under sufferance) and have not had a single laugh, it is just not funny in my opinion , I do have a sense of humor, but this show doesn't make me laugh, instead I cringe with embarrassment with how BAD it is! Whoever gave this show the green light should be ashamed of themselves. Ireland is meant to be a nation of funny people yet RTE still can't make a good comedy show.If you want a laugh then go and watch Father Ted - a classic and extremely funny comedy. My advice:avoid this show at all costs!

I was so utterly appalled by the quality of this so called 'comedy' that I was compelled to write a review.

Now after seeing 2 episodes I can honestly say that it is the worst comedy I have ever seen, let alone sketch comedy. The sketches shown were (with the notable exception of 2 mildly funny sketches) predominantly badly written, poorly acted, and displayed almost no discernible knowledge of comic timing or comedic conventions. Furthermore, of the sketches I saw there was clearly no thought put into seemingly all but 2 of them. They are poorly executed versions of incomplete and (it would appear) hastily written scripts that should never have been filmed to begin with.

That this show was green-lit, let alone made into a 6 series show, is despicable.

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.

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 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..
