Frankie Boyle's New Series

[Chris_H]

It starts on the 30th at 10pm on Channel 4. It's called "Frankie Boyle's Tramadol Nights".

Channel 4 said the show was "not for the faint-hearted. Expect brass neck and laughs in abundance".

Well if it was Frankie and not offensive, it wouldn't be Frankie.....

[EDLT]

Don't watch too many Mock the Week repeats otherwise his jokes will seem familiar...

[tim2100]

Excellent. Going to see him live soon. Can;t wait.

[FourWheelDrift]

That was the biggest pile of crap I've ever seen. I'd rather watch Little Miss Jocelyn and I said I'd poke my eyes out if I watched that.

Nothing funny, just a bunch of morons in the audience laughing everytime he said fk, which was every 4th word.

I thought the standup was ok, but the sketches were st.

[4sure]

unfunny and ste.

[JackDaniels]

I find Frankie Boyle on the whole very funny, but that was utter crap, even the stand up was mediocre at best.
Seems to be trying far too hard to be as offensive as possible and losing any humour.
Will give it one more episode then bin it if it does not get any better.

Ditto to all the comments - pile of horseste and just trying to offend for the sake of offending. I actually switched off after 15 minutes as it was too painful to watch.

Correct. utter sheeite.

[Steamer]

Frankie usually has me in fits of laugher - but most of that was dross. Knight Rider got a titter though.

...this Morgana woman seems to be doing a better job of it.

[stormrider2]

It was awful. It just seemed like a vain attempt at being as controversial and offensive as possible but with no comedy involved.

Morgana show got changed after 5 mins as well.

Well said. Just gratuitous crap.

[Jasandjules]

It was pretty poor, as was the show after it.

I find mention of that woman offensive. Please stop.

FB was poor overall. Stand up was ok, thought the green mile bit was, sort of funny, the rest I could and will leave well alone.

[RicksAlfas]

Crap.
Saw him live on stage a couple of years back and that was crap too.

His "shock swearing" routine used to get a laugh on Mock the Week because it was so out of kilter with the rest of the show but when it's just him doing it all the time it's a bag of ste.

[petemurphy]

very disappointed bar the george michael highway code

[oobster]

I thought the Knight Rider sketch was ok'ish, the George Michael Highway Code sketches were quite good and the stand-up parts were just ok. He needs to get rid of that mad ginger beard though.

Good to see the Rev Obadiah Steppenwolfe guy too (Jim Muir) - seen him live a couple of times and thought he was very funny. He did the Brokeback Mountain cowbuy sketch on Tramadol Nights last night.

That Morganna thing got switched off after 30 seconds - didn't even make it to the end of the Boris sketch.
