I'm really sorry, Andrew Scott. I love you any everything, but Chris O'Dowd for all the awards. Also, I always feel awkward labelling Irish posts with the "British" tag when an "Irish" tag doesn't also exist :/

I'm really sorry, Andrew Scott. I love you any everything, but Chris O'Dowd for all the awards. Also, I always feel awkward labelling Irish posts with the "British" tag when an "Irish" tag doesn't also exist :/
maybe at the next tag suggestion post you could suggest "television - british/irish"?
ia Chris O'Dowd for all the awards.
Rooting 4 u, Seven Psychopaths.
Also, Martin McDonagh for all of the awards.
Also, the IFTAs are usually shit too. I remember when the world hated Mel Gibson and we gave him a Lifetime Achievement Award because no other country would have him and we knew he'd turn up. LAWL.
Just like I always want to correct people when they bring up Ireland being part of the UK -- like, I will interrupt conversations to do this.
Ha, not many people know about it BECAUSE it's crap, I think anyway. Ireland doesn't really come under most people's radars either since it's so tiny.
Hahaha, I do the same, hopefully not in a mean way, but I always think that education is a good thing for people. Luckily I don't have to do it much, living here and all :) In America once, my brother was asked did he ever "go to the mainland" to do his grocery shopping. By 'the mainland' they meant Britain :/
Everything on Irish tv is shit lbr
Do you see the Oscars, Golden Globes, and Emmys as the main award shows for television and cinema, or do you see the award shows from your country as more important?

I don't consider this awards ceremony as anything important tbh. That's just me though!
The BAFTAs usually only nominate Brits. Though Oscar has given undeserving Brits the awards. (Don't bother writing.)
As an American, TV (I should be watching) and movies (without Brits) are the only things on my radar. Which means I watch a lot of DVDs.
But then I have this weird snobbery about the thing my own country produces, which is stupid. I must miss a lot of interesting books/films/series because of that.
The IFTAs are great though because it gives recognition to Irish productions, even if I don't see them as important. Nice to see something not so America-centric, kwim?
but gdi, all I want is more IT Crowd.
