    Summary

    Reviewers say 'Frank of Ireland' garners mixed reactions, with some praising its humor, Irish comedic style, and Gleeson brothers' performances. Many commend the clever writing, memorable characters, and escapism it offers. Conversely, others criticize the humor as unfunny, the characters as unrelatable, and the show as disappointing. Frequent discussions revolve around its puerile jokes and comparisons to 'Hardy Bucks' and 'Father Ted'. The show's polarizing nature indicates its appeal hinges on viewers' taste in comedy and appreciation for Irish humor.

    Hilarious. Seriously.

    I really don't understand how anyone could say this isn't funny.

    Very silly, Very funny.

    Very silly funny and enjoyable comedy. Made me think of the exceptional Father Ted from back in the day. I think the more you watch the more you see, references to films etc.

    Irreverent comedy at its best

    If that kind of humor is your thing, you'll love this. I had no idea the Gleesons were related. Hilarity ensues. Obnoxious, cruel, stupid and silly. Funny all around. I certainly look forward to a second season of this. Loved Franks mum. What a gem.

    Think Dumb and Dumber

    At first, it can be hard for an American viewer to get their head around what the Gleeson brothers are trying to do with this show. Then you get a couple of episodes in and it hits you: Think Lloyd and Harry with Frank and Doofus. There are also a lot of movie references that seem random at first, but are actually quite clever. I binged the whole six 30-minute episodes at once, and I think it's actually brilliant the more I think about it. This show had me laughing out loud A LOT. Embrace the dumb.

    Off beat great Irish humour

    With words like 'shift' and 'gee' being used, this show is unapologetically Irish. I can't understand some of the low reviews!?! Is this show like marmite?? Non stop, laugh out loud, quick witted daft humour! Really enjoyable :)
