Go away! People like Maeve Higgins and Jason Byrne should have a sell by date. The schtick is done, and it's now worn. Realise that ye're unfunny people and whatever spin-offs attempted after a year in the 'limelight' from originally poor shows won't make you anymore worthwhile. It can be nothing but an ego thing - and it's just embarrassing.

Maeve is fucking useless, she's not funny at all, and Silage the only reason all of Cork finds her funny is cos you're all inbred down there and would find a dog sniffing another dogs arse funny. Fuck off back to your GAA, get Maeve outta my tv and lets get some quality comedians back!

For fuck sake......

Are all Irish people trying to subliminally make everybody hit the Like button.

"Cos you know...like...I tink... like...i was over there...like... ya know... like"

Aw I love Maeve, so funny :)

I love most Irish comedians, I hate all other comedians from other countries though :P

[NiNiWanderlust]

I think Maeve is Brillllllllliant*

[ClaireF93]

well i dont care if ye ''maeve haters'' thumb me down, all im saying is I like her and i think she is HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-lario­us!

There are many female comedians who are better than Higgins, none of them Irish. The fact of the matter is female Irish comedians aren't funny! There are some quality Irish actresses/performers, yer one who played Mrs Doyle in Father Ted comes to mind, Pauline McGlynn or something, and others too. Maeve is a talentless moron, like 99% of the so called funny people RTE employ, the only redemption they have is The Savage Eye, but even thats gonna run out of material soon. Fancy Vittles my arse...

I think we all know male comedians better than her, but I'd be curious about any female comedian better than her.

I wouldn't recommend falling back on the 'ur not from cork, u wouldn't understand' argument. That usually doesn't go down so well outside the peoples republic.

I'm not from cork, I don't think J Byrne is funny (in fact I think most comedians operating in Ireland are kinda rubbish, and the standup scene, while it makes some money, is full of itself, and very lacking in quality standup.) but Maeve, shes alright y'know. I think shes pretty smart, and funny in a far more insightful way then others

"lets get some quality comedians back"
