The Late Late Show April 15th 2016

Every week it just seems to get worse. ... My thinking is RTE can't afford to pay for decent guests because enough of us aren't paying our licence ....

That was quite the emotional roller coaster ride.

I'm bringing everyone on this thread to the punchestown races next month. We'll do a quick stop off at the garden centre on the way and pick up some bird seed and an electrical strimmer

The show was f*ckin manure but this thread was the best.

I watching this twitter status about some porsche's drawing along the Wild Atlantic Way. It is a lovely thing to watch with some great shots of their beautiful views.

Are all the guests on the Late Late homegrown now? It's typical of scabby RTE trying to save money

Was there a pre-show act? I hope there was and it was good.

I felt sorry for the young girls in the Junk Couture section, they had to appear after a chat about carbon monoxide poisioning, and then be judged by Louis and Vogue, then we had a chat about cancer (I changed channel for this), followed by a very depressing song, a comedian trying to poke fun at ISIS, then a "poet" tell us about her nephews suicide and finally the vet (the only uplifting part of the 2 and a half hours).

Again I sure hope the pre-show was good.

I wonder do RTE ever do focus groups or anything similar when judging the late late show and Ryan Tubridy's performance. I dont know anybody over the age of four years old who thinks that CHILDISH NONSENSE with the audience members is entertaining. And remember, Tubridy is only doing five hours a week on the radio since he's moved back to Radio One, so this is a lot of money this man is getting for what I can only describe as absolute rubbish.

The other question RTE need to ask is why exactly did they bring Ray D'Arcy back to their stable, and give him a Saturday night TV show when it's very apparent that they dont have enough guests for one show. For the material that he was given, Brendan did a much better job. There was no requirement to bring in another presenter (and his usual coat tail hangers that he brings with him) to interview guests that are pretty much nobodies.

On at least three different occasions today I giggle to myself as this post popped back into my head.

It's the post that just keeps giving

This show with used to be a national treasure, now it's a national embarrassment. A vet, an comedienne who isn't funny and a load of lads playing banjo and singing a **** song. Top drawer.

Gotta love the irony .

"An comedienne" a national embarrassment!

Brilliant post.

I like the banjo I have to say...

I know a London based banjo player called Brian Kelly. He served his apprenticeship with the late Tom McManamon. He often gigs down your way. Next time he's back I'll let you know.

I'm going grey and have outrageous hair. I'm thinking of cutting it soon.

Seems like Tubridy is in trouble this morning over that tabloid "body language" item that they did with that British charlatan (no offense WMM :pac: ) that analysed of all the party leaders and pointed out their traits.

You know Turidy, always controversial
