I’d watch it…..
Hard to believe Jennifer Maguire was once the ‘most successful salesperson in Europe’. From sales and targets to sketch comedy. Extraordinary.
Great, an offshoot of an atrocious show. Will most definitely be worse.
Granted, I’m drunk. I hope I remember to look at this post tomorrow.
I will agree with my statement but will probably feel I was too easy on RTE.
I think the licence fee is great value.
I watched some of these sketches- the idea didnt sustain 90 seconds- I dont know how they think they could write a 30 minute show around it, let alone a 6 part series.
I guess people who like Emo and Iver need something when on a break from their xbox.
