Proof that even a stopped clock can be funny once in a lifetime.
Dancing with the Staff
I swear to fuck, I’ve had it with this shite. I can’t escape from it anywhere on a Saturday night/Sunday night/Aftershow program. It’s everywhere
I honestly don’t give a shit if Barry from Fair City can sing or dance. Or skate on ice. I don’t care he can’t act either.
Not much of a hot take but I absolutely hated the masked singer during covid times. The artificial sound and applause being boomed into an empty crowd made it all the more hollow. The ITV style of zooming in on everything and having the judges guess who it is while the song is still in motion, and a load of pointless faff to get the lowest common denominator to go “OOH! ITS X!”. It felt like a contest made for social distancing and the like, so its weird why you would want it to continue now. Stars in their Eyes would be better now that covid is over and done with. Just do the songs with the impression, and cut out all of the needless faff about guessing who it is.
Bring back scare at bedtime
I would prefer the masked singer to dancing with the stars.
Dancing with the stars is painful to watch. You watch an episode of Strictly and then the Irish version and it’s like going from watching Man City to watching Cobh Ramblers. There is 0 atmosphere, cheap as hell.

What basic costumes would they have for this? Brown paper bag?
what’s Marty Morrissey’s singing voice like, i wonder? Heaven Knows, I’m Miserable Now…
Wait….are we copying UK TV again?
Why
I’d quite like this, hope it happens 👍

Can they not just replace RTE with white noise?
