I'm sure most people won't like this show because it's not the same old show that they loved so much.They don't understand how hard it is to write a hilarious sitcom for so many years.I'm sure Brendan O'Carroll wanted to end the show before it got bad but at the same time he was probably being offered tons of money to continue.So he took the high road and made something a little different.The reviews that say it isn't funny are just plain wrong.Dermot and Buster's tours are hilarious and everything Winnie says makes me laugh.I even enjoy Cathy's talk show and I've never even heard of any of her guests,except Pamela Anderson and Lulu(and Lulu looks amazing for 68 years old while poor Pam is unrecognizable after her 68th plastic surgery).This show is Agnes at her raunchiest best while still having a soft side.Don't believe the haters, give this show a chance.

I've purposely waited until I've seen the majority of episodes before giving a review. The first episode was almost surreal, I felt like I'd stepped into a parallel universe, Pamela Anderson being the only other person from the same planet. It has improved, and has cheered up my Saturday Nights, the format is utterly insane, I find myself enjoying the characters interplay more then the game show/interview format, the jokes are corny as always, but delivered in a way that makes me laugh. Something almost old fashioned, but somehow comforting about the show, it's delivering humour I'd have had growing up as a young kid in the 1908's, gone forever I'd thought, but not. It's doing pretty well in the ratings, getting six million plus week on week. Six million people can't be wrong, can they?When there's nothing else to do on a Saturday Night, a glass of red wine, and this will fit the bill, but no longer then six weeks please. 6/10

This show is merely a slight re-hash of 'Mrs Brown's Boys' so if you find that show funny you will no doubt find this show entertaining.Alas, I do not...the recycling of lame jokes, use of childish innuendo and a ridiculous 'Mammy of the Week' award is not for me. The BBC have abandoned creativity to allow this nonsense onto our screens - this is a one-trick pony and the trick was never all that good in the first place. Avoid.

I gave up about half way through the first episode. It simply isn't funny, the script was bad and the material just not interesting.The involvement of celebrities such as Pamela Anderson, in episode #1, is just stupid and boring. Involving individuals from the audience is a bad idea and makes this show annoying and unwatchable. Selecting the "Mother of the week" from the audience and giving her some prices... I just cringed when watching the sorry excuse for a show!The concept for this show should have been thrown in the rubbish-basket before launching it. What were the creators thinking?
