Damian Corless jogs the memory as to the true depth of woefullness RTE has inflicted on the population for a concerted period of time without mercy.

Yeah right. Cannot wait to be back in Ireland at Christmas so I can make sure to be in on a Sunday night at 6.30 to deliberately miss it.Originally Posted by RTE Website
Incidentally, I am delighted that Extra Extra made it onto that list of abominations. I have always felt that it never got credit enough. Indeed, for most of this century, I was beginning to think I'd dreamt it, because no-one I met ever admitted to having heard of it. Thank you Damian for backing me up on this. I would imagine someone remembered the glorious Hall's Pictorial Weekly abd said to himself "Oho, ready made market there!" and managed to botch all the worst parts of the original, and throw in several new and remarkably unfunny ideas too.
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!
Its not RTE but the BBC's Hole in the wall is just awful.

...…and it doesn’t even mention ‘Bittersweet’, ‘Bachelors Walk’ or ‘On Home Ground’
" I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
That is indeed, the worst show I have seen on any channel. Prime time Saturday too. Awful stuff.
'Bring on the wall!'
No. Feck off Dale.
'Fascists dress in black and go round telling people what to do, where as priests.....'
What about the English class which was on rte 2 earlier this year? It was shocking. It was actually painful to watch for more than a few minutes. The main actor in it was so bad and annoying.
Unsurprisingly, he was previously in Fair City.
This Home Run crap really takes the biscuit though.
"Leave It To Mrs O'Brien."
I win.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
On home ground was brilliant.
The Big Bow Wow hasn't been mentioned yet.
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
Am I the only one who thinks Andrew Maxwell is hopeless?
I think it was agreed in an earlier episode that mentioning that name is an instant banning offence...

If you were on QI the sirens would be going off as we speak!
LITMOB has become merely a cliché for bad telly since, left in the ha'penny place by the sh!te that followed. Bad and all as it was (and it really, really was, don't get me wrong), it's a Sopranos or a Curb Your Enthusiasm in comparison to some of the later shows mentioned above.
more bass
Throw away your TV. Honest, there is no reason to tolerate than pointless corporate and governmental propaganda machine any longer.
Between your basic Sky Digital Package and not paying the RTE Tax you'll save around 500 Euro a year. No brainer really when you honestly sit down and think about he madness of funding the X Factor and George Lee.
Yeah what the hell was that all about?
TO TELL THE TRUTH IS REVOLUTIONARY
The ONLY foot.ie user with a type of logic named after them!
All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.
Should threads on RTE really be lodged in TV & Film? I mean to say, this sub-fora comes under Entertainment.

The worst thing about all the shows mentioned is they all get better audiences than MNS!
Just goes to show most women are stupid.
In Trap we trust
yeah went shopping with the missus yesterday in city centre - nightmare - was thinking thats the reason women (real woman - thatcher/harney dont count) dont really go into politics - cant bloody decide between a red bracelet or blue one and take 40 minutes to come up with the answer - and then change mind repeatedly
