fredfredrikfreddyfred Being from San Francisco, California; I usually find BBC comedy shows hard to relate to. But the premise of Derry Girls was intriguing enough to give it a try. In spite of the off-putting facial expressions of the lead girl, I have fallen deeply in love with this show and now eagerly await the making of more episodes. All of the casting and performances are so brilliant. The head nun is hysterical. The chemistry of the girls has totally won me over and chick-flick comedy is definitely not my thing. Whoever has created this show is an amazing talent destined for future greatness

jebediah-72668 A lot can happen in a 30 minute sit-com, and Derry Girls is no exception. The comedy performances, writing and production is spot-on, slo-mo and steadycam shots of mundane action backed with awesome 90's choons (and Whigfield). I like it, maybe you will too. Notable episodes are #3 and #4, when our gang chase the dead-ringer of Erin's dog, Toto, into church and to witness a miracle involving Our Sacred Lady investigated by a dashing Priest, and when the Children of Chernobyl visit Derry, which could take them out of the frying pan and into a different frying pan. Great cast, some pretty decent character-driven humour (including the older generations) and an interesting take on the setting and period make for a great formula, not too burdened by PC or a political agenda.

dilsonbelper Poor poor acting, loose script, stale references to norn oirish history, plagiarizing other fantastic comedies IE weeping Our Lady taken from Fools and Horses many other rip off scenes too Father Ted, Inbetweeners etc . The northern Irish die hard will still force laugh's at this rubbish, and I suppose the the Emperors new clothes situation will arise when the wee man shouts out in the crowd..."this just isn't funny" and the mass of fools turn around and yes yes your are right wee man" it is as funny as give my head peace on a good night.

jamesmylercook I do not normally watch shows like this, but I found it to be laugh-out-loud funny.
