Med/MadHatter Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I use MBBs as a yardstick, that and Chem trails, if someone starts talking to me about either of them I ignore them :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bar BS3 Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I would rather be forced to sit though endless replays of Dean Windass’s goal at Wembley, on a repeating loop, than watch the complete and utter Shite that is a Mrs Browns Boys.

RedRock Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 The first note of EastEnders, Coronation Street theme tunes make me scamper off to find the remote. Browns Boys just make me reach for the bucket, most cringeworthy programme ever produced, never got past one word before switching over.. What clueless wonder in the BBC thought that was a good substitute for football FFS. Surely the demographics of MOTD watcher doesn’t correlate to a 90 year old woman who dribbles down their chin and wets her knickers. Do a re-run of The Office or The Young Ones, play Glastonbury, something decent. Sounds like another reason to stop the licence fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 As MOTD Is shite these days the BBCs decision to show MBB is fully in keeping with the theme. I'm not a fan of MBB but FFS spare me from re-runs of the Office or the Young Ones. I don't like drag acts but hate cringe comedy more. Best thing Ricky Gervais ever did was stay the hell away from my TV screen. But thankfully I don't have to put up with any of this as my remote has an off button and I still have not only a blue Ray player but a VHS video player too.

Alex_BCFC Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I can’t understand how anyone has ever laughed at that stuff. It’s like they’ve done the worst possible jokes and seen if anyone will like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laner Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 Shame they can't rerun old MOTDs instead. I used to have an old VHS box set of games from 60s, 70s and 80s and loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider_boy Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I've never understood how MBB is popular. Seems to belong with the level of comedy of the 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I'm certainly not a fan of Mrs Brown's Boys but it is harmless enough and, whilst I don't find it funny, it doesn't actively anger me as much as it seems to other people. I really wish all the hatred and contempt directed towards it was saved for Still Open All Hours. Even less funny, way more cynical and made by people who should know much better.
