    Genius (plural geniuses) is something or someone embodying exceptional intellectual ability, creativity, or originality, typically to a degree that is associated with the achievement of unprecedented insight

    haha, spot on! He's made a career from playing the same bogger character type, even that bloody 22-2-2-2-2 add is the same as usual. No thanks.

    Anyone who thinks that Pat Shortt is a comedy genius clearly hasn't got a fucking clue about comedy.

    I like the ad where he goes "22 22 22... 1890 22 22 22"..

    .. that sort of comedy could rival Carlin or Hicks tbh!

    I think he's funny, but that's because I'm from Tipperary. I don't really see how you would if you weren't tbh.

    Don't get me wrong.. D'Unbelievables were amazing (as a pair)..

    .. but Pat Shortt (as an individual) is meh (although he did impress me HUGELY in 'Garage')!

    Go on pa ya boyo :pac:

    I'll agree with you. Some of the stuff Pat Shortt did in D'Unbelieveables and on his own was class. You'd probably only get it if your from the country for some reason.
    Townie types hate him and if your a D4 head you probably wont know who he is. They'd be too busy watching dirt comedy like "Friends" and enjoying the usual brain dead sanitized humour that gets played on TV. They probably have a picture of Bill Cosbie up on their wall as well. In fairness I'm being harsh on Bill. Family guy ripping the piss out of him probably made his existence worth while :D

    Pat has done some muck recently though I'll admit. A lot of the Killinaskully stuff was muck but then again its aimed at a certain audience. Still I loved the scene where Pa charged the young fella ten euro for the oversized candy floss after he was on the mobile phone.

    So yeah I'm going to put Pat's early work up there with some of the best comedy I've seen from America or Britain or Auz.
    Do most comedians seem to just go **** when they get a little bit older or what? Seems to be the case.

    He was only ever funny in Father Ted when he was reading lines somebody else wrote.

    Yeah, it worries me as well. I think this is the result of watching too much Pat Shortt, Sarah Silverman and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oubnr-4_RCo in the last 24 hours. One shouldnt mix certain things.

    Personally don't find him funny one bit - in fact totally irritating with stupid, silly, cheap humour you'd expect from an brainless idiot (and even then its not funny).

    He can be funny, but couldn't watch a full stand up show with him. He is way too repetitive, and puts on the same accent in every skit but just dresses differently. Can get very annoying.
