Why do you watch Fair City?

Yoshitsune · 11-08-2023 4:08pm #1

I read reviews on Fair City online with the majority of them being negative but I am also curious on why the show as a dedicated fan-base. I never watched a episode of Fair City and I want to know what other people thoughts of it. Do you love it? Hate it? Enjoy the characters and/or like the themes that are presented?

I watch Fair City. I even started the petition to free Katy a few years ago. The aim of it was just to highlight how long the storyline was going on.

It's just something you get into a habit of and like a drug you can't stop no matter how bad it is.

A lot of the actor in Fair City are good enough and can pull things off when they get a good story. There's a few dead wood characters.

There biggest problem is their writers. Storyline can make little sense and all of a sudden get rushed ending, characters can have personality transplants.

Are you sure you don't work in The Hungry Pig Bob? 🤔

It is tripe but I sometimes watch it - depends on the storylines and which characters are being focussed on. The recent story about a Garda abusing her power was quite good. It is trash TV but is a lot more relatable for the average Irish person that the likes of Eastenders which obviously has far better acting and production.

The bigger question is do bees like ants? Also what type of honey?

In the vein hope that the ghost of Harry Doyle will come back and secude all the bords of Carraigstown and cause chaos. Man's man, don't make 'em like that any more.
