:D Molly's film has been out since 2017. If it ain't made it's money now, then mentioning it on Tommy's show ain't gonna help it.

You have though, put your finger on precisely what is wrong with The LLS and D'arcy. Because the presenters are not able to handle the 'live' aspect, the show's are frequently boring and repetitive. I.E. a good editor might be able to fashion a better show out of them.

I read the comments on the facebook clip and there were loads of people saying they were going to get her book and watch the movie.

So anybody who gets a clip of their film played by way of introduction (I had no idea who she was and needed some background) is promoting said film?

Like you said by way of creating some bizarre conspiracy that
'the first thing SHE did was play a clip from her movie' as if she was running the show.

And did she mention her book once?
She told her story which was entertaining, fascinating and interesting, what you require from a guest.

Yes it's 100% an advert.

When the TG4 weather presenters came out they didn't go "here's a clip that'll tell you who I am" did they?

Molly Bloom wasn't on the show for the fun of it, she was doing it to gain from it.

Are you expecting Tubridy or D'arcy to have the same kind of show?

Tiernans show is a depressfest.

As for someone I saw say Tiernans show is better because it's not an advertisement, Molly Bloom came on and the first thing she did was play a clip from her movie.

Also don't forget Tiernans show is pre recorded so all the ****e bits are taken out.

Oh come on, the vast majority of chat shows are recorded. LLS is an exception.

Showing a clip from an older film that is about the interviewee is not an advertisement.
To call it "depressfest" is ridiculous.

It's a very entertaining show and probably the best thing on RTE now.

It is a depressfest. The show is basically The Meaning of Life except Tiernan replaces Gay. Which isn't a bad thing, but I don't get why everyone loves this yet criticises the late late for having misery slots etc.

There are 0 laughs in this show and it's on a Saturday night at 10pm.

I like the show - an awful lot more that the LLS and D’Arcy’s now dropped Saturday evening effort. The guests are, for the most part, interesting and engaging, whether they are not so well known or well known, when there’s a new facet of them on display.

The best thing for me is that Tommy listens - his mind isn’t racing on to the next question he’s about to ask and missing the reply. That is a speciality of Ryan Tubridy, and is one of the elements that torpedoes the LLS.

It’s good, entertaining stuff. Keep it going, please.

"0 laughs", that just shows to me that you most likely don't watch the show at all.

Tommy's show is pre recorded so that gives him much more freedom in the conversation. If it goes very bad, it can be cut, if it goes very controversial, it can be cut, if it goes too long, it can be cut.

Tub's doesn't have that luxury.

So it's hard to compare the two when they're very different formats.

eh...maybe that is because nobody has made a film about them?

Of course she was gaining from it...anybody who puts themselves forward to be interviewed or to tell their story, publicly is.

0 laughs?

Well I'm out, as you clearly have no idea what you are talking about here.

No, some of us have issues over him feeling a great sadness when Fidel Castro died, or the friend who runs death squads.

Climate change is so bad, let me fly around Ireland.
Spending thousands per night on a trip to Switzerland, and we have people who turn a blind eye to everything because it is Michael D.
