Sketchy... hit or miss?

Brutal. I watched a few of those sketches and didn't even come close to laughing. Cringeworthy.

I've seen worse. The actual sketches are better than his stand up IMO. He's the type of comedian I could like (kinda a poor man's Neil Delamere) but I can see why he doesn't have a broad appeal. Dunno about anyone else but that Wander wi Willie sketch was hilarious - if like me you enjoy ridiculing the Ulster Scot programme that it's parodying.

I missed the show on Wed. night but saw it was repeated again at the week end. That gave me the chance to miss it again.

Jury still out for me, but give him a chance as at least some (a good bit?) of it was refreshing. Also, goes beyond the 'tell a taig joke' and then 'tell a prod one' ..

Mmmm - still hit and miss, being kind.

Terrible, terrible tv. Cringeworthy!! Seriously was there anything funny there at all?

Haven't seen this at all but was skipping past it and thought I saw barry "the blender" henderson ?

Yea, twas him I think. Get the feeling that Corr is on the verge of being funny at times but some sketches are poor to average..

Series 2 on tonight around 10:30. Again, I hope it works out well for him...but...I still fear the worst. Hope I'm pleasantly surprised.

Probably the Head of Comedy in BBCNI who has perpetrated other crimes against humanity such as Give My Head Peace and Dry Your Eyes.
