Re: Mrs Brown's Boys - Mammy's Inflation
I'll be absolutely honest. Although I do not like the f... word being used, I have to admit that there are some aspects of this comedy that does make me laugh and I still watch it but, I reiterate, it could still be done without the use of.Mrs Brown does NOT only use it on her own, but has used it in front of the priest and other unassociated members of her family and, to my recall, none of the others use it, and they are extremely funny in their own right.
It's such a pity that it is deemed necessary to make the programme funny when it isn't.

I went to see two of his live shows back in the 80's and believe me I was glad I didn't take my Mother with me, he was doing a stand up show then and it was way over the top, but in fairness to him it was well advertised as to the shows content, he has toned down a lot since those days.
He is a really nice fella outside show business and works very hard at his writing, he is no overnight success, personally I'm delighted he's enjoying the fruits of his labours at last, good luck to him.

Re: Mrs Brown's Boys - Mammy's Inflation
Indeed Jem and I do appreciate his sense of humour, but it could well do without the f... words as he's funny enough without it.Friday night's show was brilliant and, what made me choke laughing was this line:
"What's that useless bit of skin on the end of a man's willy called?"
Reply:
"A man!"
That just broke me up choking laughing. This is a fantastic piece of humour, but it just doesn't need the use of bad language, and I feel sad that it's felt to be necessary to be humorous to use it, because it isn't.
