He is now writing a weekly column in the Sunday Indo magazine.Aaaahhhh Kevin McAleer - who spring boarded out of Nighthawks - went to see him way way back & his show was great - am just as interested to see where he ended up. Again he had a set theme which is kinda risky as people can get tired of it.

I think Dublin people like Mrs. Brown.
Can't see much in it myself.
Just watched that savage eye gor the first time tonight, jaysus is it always that bad?? I reckon when I'm on my deathbed I'll still be thinking about the half hour of life I wasted watching that rubbish!
I thought this thread was going to be about the government.Ireland's current crop of comedians
I don't think some Irish comedians understand that being obscene/controversial is not the same as being funny, Tommy Tiernan and Dave Savage spring to mind...
You see that's what I don't get. To me, Tommy Tiernan is funny (no comedy genius mind you) a lot of the time and sometimes not.
Just goes to show that comedy really is down to personal taste. Personally I think the Savage Eye is one of the funniest shows RTE has put out in recent years, up there with Naked Camera.
......I wish Billy Bailey was Irish!- about the funniest comedian around at the moment.
You see that's what I don't get. To me, Tommy Tiernan is funny (no comedy genius mind you) a lot of the time and sometimes not. The fact that he is foul mouthed and/or crude has got nothing to do with it. He just happens to be that as well.
In fact, the funniest stuff he does IMO has nothing to do with sex or bodily functions or swearing per se at all. He just happens to swear when he talks about it.
+1 on Niall Toibin though!
