It doesn't matter squat how much Big Brother is talked about in Ireland. Channel 5 can't get ratings out of us. It's not measured over here.
And he's right - Ireland is an entertainment cesspit. RTE is a national embarrassment with most original drama and comedy for the past ten years being just absoloutely woeful.
Even RTE seem to have given up on it and most of their prime time slots are now devoted to pastiche, throw away crime shows designed to scare the balls off you so you stay indoors and watch more crappy, taxpayer funded telly.
I think this whole "Hey I'm Irish and I disagree!" carry on serves only to marginalized us.
