I agree. It's rare that a new comedy can make me laugh out loud in the first episode, so when a new comedy can make me laugh out loud from the very first scene, I know it's very special.

For me it was when it started with Dreams by the Cranberries, just from the 1st measure that hooked me.

I think a little Orla cult is growing. Some of her lines are so off the wall, they don't reveal themselves until at least a second or third watching. Also, in group interviews with the others, she comes off as a fairly attractive chick.

She's hilarious! Exceptional delivery of her lines--and with such a straight face, too!

@I Coroa You're right. I just didn't pay attention before. Funniest show ever!

@@bookdear (Orla as she throws her cigarette lighter to the guy outside the shop in episode 1.01). "I don't smoke either, I just like mel'in' stuff !"

@@klausrain111 The third time watching the show is when you come across all the Orla antics, the actual content of what Colm is saying, the utter seriousness that Aunt Sarah's absurdity comes with and the background score really comes to life too.

She practically steals the whole show :)

@@46kevs For REAL. They're all super funny, but Sister Michael... she has me 💀💀💀

@@Anti-Social_Socialite My friend swears that Sr. Michael was in her convent school in NI.

She is Great!

Fuck I hope that's true🤣

It has to be, that is the definition of a Northern Irish grandfather, ask a question as bluntly as possible and then fuck off before the answer comes.

@@Djboofman it's coming out in the UK and Ireland in March apparently. Their already talking about season 3 and there's rumors of a film to finish it off :-)

Same-I'm waiting for a second season if any... but I'm hoping they add more European shows on Netflix or Hulu in the future.

@@THAT.RANDOM.GUY_ I mean, that's sort of the requirement they have to fulfill with the EU law that requires netflix and similar to have a percentage of european produced shows rather than 90% hollywoo + some pop anime

Yes! Me too! Got it all done in one weekend! Superb show!

@@THAT.RANDOM.GUY_ season 2 is on the all4 app

Yes as have I watched the series 4 times I want them in my everyday life! We need a current Derry Girls series NEED

"WHAT GAY THING??!!" 😁

@Nolwenn Appelbaum Don't be pedantic, you know what he/she means!

@Nolwenn Appelbaum Apologies for being slow on the uptake :)

There is no gay thing! .. I too watched on Netflix

KingDomofSkeough do you wanna move overs I can’t see past your massive closet:)

Aweh!!!! Same here I'm dying waiting for season 3😂😪

@@lesedi1896 it's gonna take forever now with COVID 😩 but check out The Young Offenders and Fleabag 😊 they're also *chef's kiss*

were I am from Northern Ireland I LIVE in the 1990s

He’s not gay! As he himself says.

(excuse me, for replying to your comment, from 3 years ago). I am glad that in The Netherlands you could watch Derry Girls, with Dutch subtitles available. I am assuming it had the original audio sound. Something to keep in mind is that the "English" as spoken on that show has a strong Irish accent (and I believe that dialogue coaching ensured that the Derry sub-version, of the Northern Ireland version, of The Irish accent was correctly used). Being that I am from New Zealand (and Australia), from British born parents, almost none of the words were new to me. (except for "thon" which seems by context to mean "this one". And for "boke" where we would have said "spew" or "chunder" as a slang word for 'vomit'). However after only discovering this show in late 2022 and watching, then re-watching, Derry Girls all 3 seasons, I find myself using some of their phrases nowadays. I cannot pick variations of accent much beyond "that sounds like a Scottish or Irish accent to me". But I have read that accents vary all around Ireland's North and South. I suggest you keep watching English language programmes with the (Dutch) subtitles on, and I wish you all the best with your learning/understanding of English. Perhaps you could watch some Australian or New Zealand programmes if you want to better understand our Southern Hemisphere accents (which are themselves similar, but slightly different). With so many Australasians (including Kiwis) being from British Isles descent (including Ireland), The decades long, low level simmering 'civil war' which was called "The Troubles" was often reported in the news here, even this far away.

Do I remember you from Brooklyn years ago?

John Mc Donagh - Hi John - this is the very same Fergal. I remember you too from Brooklyn (I lived in Cobble Hill and Park Slope when both were not yet taken over by rich people. I’m thrilled you made the connection!

rebeca prat Season 3 is being released next year and their also toying with the idea of making a movie !

"It's the Polar Bear…!!!" - my favourite Orla line. :)

Same here.....can't stop

The show while its from a different place ( from the philippines here) is very relatable , since were raised as a catholic so we have the same experience with nuns at our school , as well as the pop culture references from the 90s and the music that was used in the show was very nostalgic and very recognizable. I was quite surprised actually. and thats what made the show for me very enjoyable. I mean apart from learning a bit of irish slang on the side it really is relatable I think.

@@foxfire1345 That's true. I also relate to the Catholic upbringing and the pop era. It's nice that globalisation gave so many people from around the world the chance to watch an amazing show, especially now that everything is messed up.

Nope you’re not alone😁

Nah, they’re the sweetest, they better end up together
