[TV] Mrs Browns Boys

[Lenny Rider]

Apparently returning to our screens after 9 years.

Probably an age thing, but I never really got it, and to quote Mr Bernard Manning, at times it was as entertaining as an orphanage burning down.

But no doubt I’m in the minority on here

You are not alone.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

OP is just being silly now gorblimey

 

[BBassic]

I don't mind it.

It's a bit shit but then what's life if you can't enjoy a bit of shit every now and then.

Doesn't taste very nice though.

 

[MTSeagulls]

I don't get it. Aren't there any real women actors to play the main character

 

[Easy 10]

9 years ?

Its on CONSTANTLY isn't it ? I regularly have to waft past it on the remote.

Top bombing.

It's on the NSC hate list, alongside Zaha and starting duplicate threads and certainly hasn't been away for nine years.

Nice way to crowbar Manning in. It is, in fact, as funny as David Bellotti's Dictaphone.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

The TV series was quite 'meta' and amusing, albeit I found an actor calling his wife 'mammy' rather uncomfortable watching.

The full length movie was on a par with the Steptoe movie, the finale of which was Harold finding his true love had given birth to a black baby.

Great thread, by the way

As an 8 year old lad I loved the Steptoe movie but can't remember why.

Hey, you oldER people forget that people of my slightly younger vintage grew up with a bloke pretending his wife was a schoolboy and - it turns out - they were less bothersome than the charity donating Tory who sat kids on his knee every Saturday tea time.

(Is this what you were after Ian - I can dial it up a bit if you need).

I think there were some tits in it.

 

[oldboyroy]

The new year's edition just gone was pretty awful

 

[MTSeagulls]

Ah yes that would be it, now I can get back to the Freemans catalogue.

 

[METALMICKY]

I think this debate has been done to death. For me it's utter gash but we have to appreciate that we all have different sense of humours. And if it made that many series somebody must be watching it.

About as welcoming as Michael Mcintyre getting introduced to humour:

I didn’t enjoy the shit between 3.00pm and 5.00pm yesterday.

 

[A1X]

I quite enjoyed the first series but it became incredibly stale quite quickly as it’s basically the same joke every week.
