The Lucy Kennedy show!?

elshambo

There are 4 questions, i will ask the 3 polite one's:

Q, WHY?:eek:
Q, Who is this talentless unfunny charmless gormless bint related to?
Q, Why is Television (Britain as well) so full of said charmless gormless bint types? (both male and female):(


The very first time i saw her on Podge and Rodge i knew she was being groomed for "greatness"
The advert for it!?
Gift of the gab? Surely these people know she can barly string 4 words together without boring people to tears, she has absolutely no timing

BTW I have nothing against her, its not her who is employing her, she is dead right to take the jobs given to her (given being the key word!)

If any politician is out there, attacking the smug rubbishness of RTE is a certain vote getter!

You know the way RTE television blatantly copy BBC/ITV/CH4 and avoid all traces of originality because it's run by gormless civil servants who cannot think differently?
Well Lucy Kennedy is supposed to be our answer to Davina McCall.

Anyone remember a few years ago that lad from the panel Colm whatever had a show that was a complete rip off of the Daily Show in America. Even the sequence in which the sketches were put out was the same...cowboys!

Colin Murphy - Blizard of Odd?????

She brings the word cringe into a whole new dimension. Somebody important at RTE is definitely ridin' her. There is no other plausible reason for this madness.

CDfm

The only original piece of piece of programming RTE ever made was Mart & Market with livestock prices from the Marts around the country.

An ideal revival for Lucy's unique skills.

LovetohateTV

I saw here with Calum Best called living with Lucy i think!..anyway she was a complete waste of space and as you all say, she has zero talent for this kind of work. I really cant believe someone like her can get a job on television and i know so many girls just like her who try to be miss popular but really everyone dislikes them underneath it all. She is fake as hell but hides it well!

Grainne Seoige has been getting on my nerves too lately, she never seems to come across sincere and is applying too much make up! Her sister out shines her

Of course we need another chat show presented by another Rté loose end. It's vital we know what the Rté staff do in the hour or so per week that they arent interviewing each other.

The AD for it now makes sence, she is going to be interviewing RTE types,
they might change that when they get loads of abuse cause as said above we dont care!

whoever edited that should immediately get the head of entertainment commissioning job in RTE.

And even that was about 90 seconds too long. she is like one of those overpreened, overbearing southside twits who base their standing in life on whether or not they got into the VIP area in Krystle on Saturday night. The kind that end up in their late thirties, drinking a bottle and a half of chateauneuf du pape before lunch in their large soulless house somewhere near the Merrion Centre before their adulterous husband comes home after another day working for Daddy.....

Basq

I watched 3 minutes of the show after the commercial break half-way through.. and that was enough!

3 absolutely horrific comedians (the only one I recognised was the small guy used in the Kit-Kat ads that air during Prison Break.. who was the best of the 3 in fairness, but far from great) using lazy comedy about how bad their Christmas was.

I saw Ryan Tubridy in the background.. and I'm far from a fan but thought even he's too good for this.

well done RTÉ on giving your most untalented "presenter" her own show...

this is the best post i've ever read !!!!
well done sir.....well done !!!!

She is worse than Seoige.

I didnt think that was possible

I saw Twink on Podge and Rodge - and Im not a Twink fan - but she is in a different league.

Tell us what you really think..............

I have to hand it to Tubridy, he managed to pull off being both an absolute bollix and a nice guy within the space of two or three minutes.

Sam Kade

I was wondering how long she could go without doing her donkey laugh; I think she lasted 7 minutes. Why were Tubridy and that fool from naked camera jumping around like 2 year olds on the sofa?

gingerbox

ya can't be calling pj a fool.....feel free to attack all the other numpties though.....those comedians talking about christmas was just so ****e.....they're proof that if you hang around rte doing warm up long enough you will end up on telly....obviously the rte bods are watching bbc3, show is a diluted version of the lily allen show.....ooohhhh edgy......

ben bedlam

I think its weird that in America where you have vicious battles for tv ratings, you will still see on chat shows like the Tonight Show and Letterman, actors etc. from other tv stations promoting their shows. Here however, RTE vehemently refuse to give airtime to anyone from another tv station other than RTE themselves. For example, we didnt see Bill Cullen promoting the apprentice or Paul Williams promoting Dirty Money, both good TV3 shows, on RTE but we did see aholes like Colm and Jim Jim telling us how great their gameshow would be on Tubridy. It seems every time before theres a new show on RTE, its 'stars' get interviewed on what a brilliant show it is. No wonder all RTE presented have an inflated sense of ego and importance.

zealberg

Where to begin...

This was a "no-one-cares-anymore" tv show

Upon viewing I immediatly vomited on the sofa; and subsequently was overcome by dark impulses which are best left undescribed.

Sadly the 'modus-operandi' reflected in this TV show is somewhat indicitative of the entire ZEITGEIST of this entire country.

We are a constipated nation, run by a pock-faced and pencil/brass necked elite whose anorexic ****headedness has prolapsed whatever germ of originality and creativity may have been left, post christian-brother buggary.

You could see she was in awe of Ryan Tubridy (in itself a damning indictment), who had a smug "i'm used to this sort of thing" veneer going on.

The comedians may have had 'current', forward-swept haircuts but even this could not detract from their brutality.

I felt like i was eating three weetabix with no milk.

I’m not great with maths, but how many permutations could there be of every minor Rte celebrity interviewing each other on their own chat show?

Utopia Parkway

Once I saw the first segment of the show was one RTE employee interviewing another RTE employee as per bloody usual then I knew it would be the same old muck served up slightly reheated.

so it was sh'it then!?

So I take it you didn't like the show then?

My god, people take this ever so seriously. Can people calm down, it was only a chat show not 'The Lucy Kennedy Philosophy Show'.
Next weeks guests are Pat Kenny and Podge & Rodge discussing their thoughts on Plato.

Diabhal Beag

She has a failure of a chest, no personality , no humour and I would give her about a year. I can't tell whether she is better than Podge and Rodge because both are boring and about as funny as Jett Travolta dying......


NOT A BIT~!

nhughes100

Yeah couldn't believe it when I heard she had her own chat show, she really is a useless bint(see my thread on living with lucy). I saw the opening "comedy" sketch where she dressed up as some English woman then pulled a myriad of stupid faces before introducing Ryan Tubridy as her first guest, I turned off then. RTE is reasonably good on news, current affairs, documentaries & sport. Stuff like this & the panal and the panel's spin offs just don't work. They've bled podge & rodge dry and probably would have done the same to naked camera if only for the ppl in it not wanting to be known as Jake Stevens/traffic warden etc for the rest of their careers.

humanji

The panel has a spin-off?

Some people do take it a bit too seriously..

But to put it bluntly, it wasn't entertaining in the slighest. It was unfunny, lazy and Lucy Kennedy is incredibly unlikeable.

Simple as that!

mulphisto

Have a look at the end credits next time.
Pretty sure it said that the two Gildeas (Kevin and the sister that was on the show) were the script writers.

This explains everything.

nhughes100

Not exactly a panel spin off but you know the programs that regular guys on the panel like Andrew Maxwell, Neil Delamere etc are on. Fairly crap too.

Seeing as i started the thread i thought it would be rude not to turn it on;)
I lasted 2 mins, same sh*t different shovel

Who were the comedians?
The guy from the kit kat add is actually funny if you see him live

If they were all doing xmas stuff it was probably under orders
Suprissed they didnt just tell RTE to fu*k off

Guess Bill Hicks was right, once you do an advert you sell your soul:D

Good post! My thoughts exactly.

segaBOY

How much did RTÉ spend advertising this? I must have seen a good 3 or 4 ads for it on the way from Abbey Street to the train in Heuston, looked out my window of my bedroom to see a billboard for the Lucy Kennedy show. I would be grateful but there is waaay better eye candy out there.......

Lucy sounds like a man and laughs like a donkey! I think I am being too kind in this assessment!

strange that I can't view this show on rte.ie in Spain?

Surely there shouldn't be any legal reasons why?

It is for health and safety reasons I think.
The donkeys in Spain might hear her voice and stampede into your home thinking it was one of their kind!
RTE would then have a lawsuit on their hands!
