    The Blizard of Odd

    I used to love this show, now I think it has become a typical Irish outlet of begrudgery of all things Irish (I get the irony of me complaining about this btw so no need to point it out ! ).

    The show seems to just put down anything done by Irish people, done with Irish people, done in Ireland, or has anything to do with Ireland or the people of the country.

    Anyone else think this!!?!?

    I have to agree.How does he pick his targets?He comes across as mean spirited and frustrated rather than funny.Like most Irish comedians he would love to be like Bill Hicks.This he knows... will never happen

    I've only watched it a few times and find funnyish but with any show of this nature it's bound to wear thin after a while good to see RTE showing an interest in alternative comedy for a change!
