    Aka Come Socialise with Me starts next Monday on RTE 2

    The pilot show was shown last year as part of Format Farm

    Great that RTE commissioned a full series of The Takeover - not so great that they commissioned a full series of this too.

    Not at all surprising, mind - and it wouldn't be surprising either if, as in the pilot, the participants were even more desperate than the ones on Come Dine With Me. :rolleyes:

    One fella on the pilot was also on CDWM

    The Belfast couple are obnoxious :eek:

    Is this RTE's take on Come Dine With Me?

    Gotta love the irony that you cannot watch this on RTEPlayer with a UK IP address even though it features Belfast (I know I am in the US but even with a bit of DNS magic, RTE's international offering is thin to say the least)

    "I am Psychic slash Medium"

    How many times has she mentioned that she is Psychic?

    Why would you get naked to "entertain" people?

    More like 4 in a bed rip off without the guest house.

    Noooooo! Ron is okay I suppose but Mona seems to be a bit snobby.

    I do not like the rest of them :o

    They have a lovely home.

    I tend to agree about Mona, she was dying to tell everyone that she writes a column for the Sunday Times.

    I'd love the Galway night out.

    I'd like a little more wine and vodka in it, otherwise it was perfect!

    I always get the short end of the stick lads.

    I am a full time mature student in my final year at NUIG - never went to college when I was younger.
    I changed career paths to learn how to write and half way through 3rd of college The Sunday Times folks offered me a job. Can't say I am not proud of that fact and I really REALLY LOVE my job because it lets me be at home with the kids .. 2 adopted and 2 fostered ...aged 7,8,9 & 11.
    I wish they had included that ... But I am ok with being the snooty columnist. Our goal was to highlight Galway as a great city (my hometown) and I think we did a decent job

    Terrible voice over - badly written, puerile and corny delivery.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,363 ✭✭✭washiskin


    What really annoys me about RTE's ham-fisted attempts at light reality TV is the snide voiceovers - Don't Tell The Bride is the same. Since they are coming to the party late in the day it looks even worse that they're looking to the Dave Lambe School of Embarrassing the Contestant for inspiration. :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭pooch90


    I actually thought this voice over was one of the better ones, much less snide than the DTTB girl


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭kingtut


    Voice over is sooo ANNOYING! She is not funny at all ! Shut up :mad:

    All six of these are a bit common IMO.
