Ballykissangel

It is not for everybody most likely but as you can see at my rating it is for me. I never saw this originally when it came out but a re-run about 6 years or so ago.

There are so many details to the allegory of series one of Ballykissangel that I cannot fit them all into a review. I will give you a representative sampling.

And don't like the cutesy Priest styck.Not remembering it, I must have seen it on PBS.

I somehow started liking the series, the chemistry between priest and the pub owner was good, there was good humor, the family drama, the amateurity writings ,the smalltown character they were going good somehow. But they killed the main character immaturely, they killed the show at the end of the season 3.

First three series are fine a nice light comedy drama, light and easy to watch. Unfortunately the writers obviously decided to "sex" up the series, out went the comic and in came poorly writen drama and when they reached an enpasse the kill the characters avoid any controversial areas by just knocking off the character.

Great series, certainly for the first three seasons. After that, it loses its way somewhat.

In 1998, I toured Ireland with a group of Aussies. We stopped in Avoca only because Ballykissangel was filmed there.

This show is (or was) fantastic!! Definitely worth purchasing.

I was never much of a U.K.
