Mrs Brown's Boys

[Caribeing]

Watched this last night New Years Eve themed, is it just me or does anyone else find this show unfunny, foul language and predictable jokes!

[jeffa]

I don't find it funny in the slightest, though I can understand why some people do.

[ichkeria]

Obviously a lot of people must like it or it wouldn't still be on. Unfortunately - perhaps because I'm Irish, I don't know - I find it pretty irritating to the extent that I now have to switch it off the moment it comes on.

[Cloverjo]

I'm not offended by bad language in the slightest, but this is just not remotely funny. Can't bear to watch it.

[Butterbun]

Funny when it first started but not so now, past its sell by, too vulgar.

[Caran]

Best thing on tv !

There was a programme on tv last week about Glasgow theatres and the guy who runs one of them stated that the live "Mrs Brown's" shows had helped keep that theatre open, so it can't be all that bad can it? Never watched it myself so I can't really comment on the tv shows, but they seem to be popular enough. We can't all like the same shows now can we?

[CatGirl4]

I can never force myself to even turn it on!

[cassa333]

It is, in my opinion, utter rubbish.

But as has been said, each to his or her own :)

I love it and think it's the funniest thing I've seen on TV in a long time. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get tickets for the live show in Liverpool last December, but apparently, the show is so popular they're making a film version. Personally, I'm looking forward to it.

I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me and now I find it hilarious.

The chap who plays Mrs Brown had to use the F word on QI, too. Seems he can't help himself.

[mackfender]

Isn't the same F word used repeatedly on Father Ted ?

[Sipowicz]

Feck no!

[mackfender]

Lol

[wendilla]

I love it . Better than some of the rubbish that's repeated over and over again . Talent shows that are all fixed . Comedians trying to mock our long gone good ones . There will never be comedians like we used to have .

[EcclesCake]

I've watched it once. I found the ad libbing the funniest bit.....well I smiled.....

[hc4361]

Very carefully rehearsed ad-libbing, Eccles.

I can't remember which AB user went to see it live and was very impressed with the ad-libbing and found the cock-ups funny. S/he went and saw it again some time later and it was exactly the same in every way. :(

[EcclesCake]

I'm not at all surprised HC, like I say it brought a smile to my lips but that was about all!

I love watching the 'out-takes' at the end of Pixar and other cartoon films too!

[bravejordy]

I beg to differ hc4361, a friend of mine went to watch the Mrs Brown's Boys live show three nights on the run and said Brendan O'Carroll ensured there was something different in each and every show.

[hc4361]

Sorry, bravejordy, but your friend is obviously not in his right mind.
