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 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..

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.

I watched the first 2 episodes and it was annoyed me it was so unfunny. Really bad no humour flat comedy. Domhnall Gleeson had a few funny tics, Michael McElhatton is a great comedy actor (Paths to Freedom): as is Peter McDonald, but this sketch show was so sketchy on comedy it made me want to throw up. I think I got it removed from RTE it was so bad. Not even good bad, just bad. Should just have been called Your Bad Comedy Show.

I admit I'm reviewing this show only because the previous two reviewers gave the show such bad reviews. I didn't watch every episode but the ones I saw were a bit of a mixed bag.

With a multi-character show with mostly very short sketches it is inevitable that you will get some sketches that are just not funny. This is certainly the case here with some repeated characters such as the South African mother not very funny.

However there were also some very funny ideas and characters. Perhaps they makers were under pressure to make a certain number of episodes and some items that might have been left out were kept in for this reason. Anyway it was a refreshing change to see some new faces on RTE, rather than the usual suspects.

Not bad for a first series. Hopefully the powers that be will bring them back for another series that might be even better.
