Late Late Exclusive: Ryan Tubridy on his public persona

[sam22ish]

better then pat kenny but no gay byrne

[wildcherryspray]

My dad hates him goes mad when the late late show is on but I think he's deadly. I love watching his old show & I was delighted when he got the gig for the LLS. You can't just judge someone unless you know them. He deserved to get it he did work his way up from the bottom.

[LarryFogarty]

an out and out west brit.....but try as would he will not make it to british tv......he will have to stay with west brit t.v...........

[noelio67]

Jesus....give the lad a chance

[hiline2009]

if this fellow came on tv or radio, i quickly turn him off. he has nothing to say and secondly i OBJECT to the kind of salary he is are paid- and underwritten by the tax payer

[aidy006]

ryan either does really good or really really shit...please make some effort ryan...it's like you lose respect for people sometimes and don't give them a chance on late late and radio...lose the attitude and show some positivity!!!!!! you can if you want to!!!

[fignon]

He is like an allergic reaction, OK for a while then one day he just becomes unbearable!

[jhassett2]

The usual talentless self regarding RTE clone.

[jhassett2]

Cloned from some hellish mix'n'match stool sample out of Carson & O'Brien and force fed the luckless RTE liscense fee payers.Sickening.

[IrishVolunteer1]

at least he's got some charisma....not like that complacent prick Kenny!

[mickser101]

Tubridy is crap he's like a 12 year old who's just done his communion. He'd be more comfortable interviewing Z listers or Circus clowns. yet another D4 nepotism mediocre prick

[DANIELLYNCH94]

@mickser101 u do ur communion wen ur 8 :) and btw i i think you're completely wrong and are probably just a jealous pikey

[Stanefferdingwho]

He's talking to a nice bit of panzy.

[rabbitwho]

he's so self deprecating, god love him.

You're the best thing on RTE Ryan! Wait... I want to complement him ... You're the best Chat show host on earth Ryan! Wait.. that is also not so much an achievement... Ryan.. you're a great guy and a great entertainer!

[daithi2004]

I have just missed one show. That is saying a lot. I saw the repeat. Well done to Ryan, he has liven the Late Late.

[rekkerya]

he's a disgrace to the name Ryan and deserves to be flogged in the street with all the other RTE cronies...

[johnnystarrysky]

podge and rodge were right. ryan tubridy is

south dublin on a stick.

hes part of the massive sell out of ireland.

America doesnt need an army to occupy us when they have people like ryan broadcasting.....

its no wonder that dublin has restaurants called tribeca now!

[rabbitwho]

Dublin is the least Irish part of Ireland and Ryan is the most Irish thing in Dublin!

[DANIELLYNCH94]

@johnnystarrysky what the fuck is wrong with south dublin?

u dirty fucking pikey jog on nd try nd hold the econnomy up without us

[anotherdaaay]

Fair play to ryan, he gave bertie a grilling last friday night. Always difficult to interview someone as slippery as bertie. Getting the balance between introducing the book and calling him to account. Total respect to Ryan for giving it a go

[ross4sam08]

fair play to him

[MrPiejacker]

Tubers is great, even if he's a bit of a smarty pants, I think he does a good job all round- and he seems so nervous in this video im sure he's a bit more confident now that he's got a few late lates under his belt.

[ShittiestChannelOnYT]

I think he's amazing for the job. I think Toy Show 2009 will be a lot better than it has been for the past 10 years. I never watched the Late late show when Pat Kenny was presenting it, but I find it a lot more interesting with Ryan Tubridy presenting.

[anotherdaaay]

i`m still not convinced but will be open minded for at least 6 months about ryan presenting the show. I hope that over time it doesn`t slip into his saturday night routine of over emphasis on entertainment and not enough grit. The first show was good when he asked the hard questions of cowen and west life guy but dispite the tough questions he still didnt get the answers from cowen. but hey tubridy isnt too bad but time will tell

[Alitweety1]

Am totally excited adn looking forward to the Toy show this year coz TURBIDY IS DA MAN!!! You go Ryan!!!!!!!!!1

[rolex0071]

what a 5 star show the late late show is now with the live band please have more of the band in the show. keep up the excellent work sir ryan tubridy.

[rolex0071]

what a top 5 star show the late late is now with the new live band. keep it up sir tubridy !!!

[rolex0071]

he is EXCELLENT- the new late late is outstanding with the live BAND and we all wish him the very best for the show. well done Tubridy !

[hansenb1]

hope they bring back the original theme tune, get rid of that stupid 4 piece band, it's the later late, not tubridy Tonight on Friday. GET RID OF THE BAND!!

[085lala]

ah he is a good guy alot better than pat anyway... god he was annoyin!!!!

[fuckapotomis]

He just didnt get it.

[ArtistIreland]

Good man. Ryan.

[ShaneDawsonTV69]

[fifiwozere]

[CormanBARBARIAN]

God I really do hat him though xD

And whoever that is, stop thumbing down the comments =/
