Do we like Mrs Brown's Boys?

[kittya]

My mother loves it. Im not sure.

i tried it once for five mins and didn't like it.

keep missing it!

friend told me of the scene where somone was told £20 means a 'blowjob', like a £50 is a 'monkey' or whatever. She then goes onto offer a plumber a 'blowjob' to fix some pipes, and offers the same to his mate. wish I'd seen it.

No

No Not at all.

No

No, heard people raving, watched it with jaw open.

My mum recommended it to me and DH. What is it with mothers liking it?

No.

My dad recommended it, and it was so horrendously bad I am beginning to wonder about his sanity. Totally jaw dropping that anyone liked it. I would have switched off after 5 mins, but I was waiting for the funny bits he'd assured me were there!

It's very coarse and crass, isn't it? It's clumsy - without the whimsical wit of something like Father Ted.

It just seems old-fashioned, an ego vehicle for one comedian - who appears to ad-lib quite a lot....

Yes love it, it can be a bit odd, but some bits have me almost wetting myself. DH likes it as well.

It is absolutely brilliant. Been a long time since I've laughed out loud so many times in half an hour!

My mam and dad like it as well, my mam made me watch it and got all huffy when I wasn't in hysterics.

It's ok, wouldn't watch it religiously though.

I love it. Reminds me of my MIL

I have only seen it once but found it very funny. Mainly because I am from Dublin - a very similar area to that depicted - and just the accents make me laugh! It reminds me of home.

It is a complete over-caricature of a certain type of Irish mother. In fact a Dublin mother.

I think it started as a comedy sketch and was made into a series. I suspect that they have to keep pushing the boundaries and running out of the really funny stuff that it started with.

Isn't he married to the blonde one in rl?

Don't know I'm afraid.

it's hillarious. It's aired as is - no edits. Shot infront of studio audience - so live but aired later iyswim Produces some funny bits

I love it! Its funny, naughty, wierd, juvenile, and isnt full of highbrow political satire! For a change, its lovely! It is quite simple, but I like that. I love the Ad Libbing, last night when he met the camera man in the kitchen was brilliant! "Dermot, theres a man here to talk about the wedding video"! Its a refreshing change.
And, it reminds me of my Great Granny Agnes!

Love it ....my partner managed to download the feature films of the series but they were not good and many gags that i'd already heard in the programme were repeated in the films.

My favorite bit was when he walked from one set to another to find his handbag!

Yes! 'My feckin tablets are in there!' classic! She is so familiar!!

Love it!

I love it.....it is over the top but it works
