I like it.
I'm sure most people won't like this show because it's not the same old show that they loved so much.They don't understand how hard it is to write a hilarious sitcom for so many years.I'm sure Brendan O'Carroll wanted to end the show before it got bad but at the same time he was probably being offered tons of money to continue.So he took the high road and made something a little different.The reviews that say it isn't funny are just plain wrong.Dermot and Buster's tours are hilarious and everything Winnie says makes me laugh.I even enjoy Cathy's talk show and I've never even heard of any of her guests,except Pamela Anderson and Lulu(and Lulu looks amazing for 68 years old while poor Pam is unrecognizable after her 68th plastic surgery).This show is Agnes at her raunchiest best while still having a soft side.Don't believe the haters, give this show a chance.
Poor Quality
This show is merely a slight re-hash of 'Mrs Brown's Boys' so if you find that show funny you will no doubt find this show entertaining.
Alas, I do not...the recycling of lame jokes, use of childish innuendo and a ridiculous 'Mammy of the Week' award is not for me. The BBC have abandoned creativity to allow this nonsense onto our screens - this is a one-trick pony and the trick was never all that good in the first place. Avoid.

It's So boring. Not a comedy show. Very disappointed that after so many nice episodes of mrs browns he came up with this.

Pretty Good (with reservations :-) though )
I had high expectations for this. Somewhat fell flat for me.
The new concept, studio audience and celebs didn't quite sit well with me. It felt a bit unnecessary and force fed. Took also some of the original attraction away. The celebs knew and played their extra parts, but that just it. They just were there... But most awkward moments, Mammy saved. Some sharpshooter one liners that blew me away laughing.
Never the less, some jokes still hit the bulls eye and the over all series was a enjoyable in whole. The characters were as before, and cast had fun portraying them. Cracking out in middle scenes. These were the saviors of the series.
If they still continue making the Mrs Browns Boys. I hope they go back to old sitcom way. That still worked best.

Out of Ideas
The original Mrs Brown series was a great piece of Irish comedy. This new concept which is one would call a talk show is a huge disappointment. It's as if when they decided to continue with the show they could not think of any original story lines and this is what they came up with. It is a disaster and has ruined the shows reputation.
One of the funniest shows I have seen for some time
I have been watching All Round to Mrs Browns and found it to be one of the funniest shows I have seen for quite some time. I love the show and hope to see more of it. The humour which as sexual overtones is not overly done and I think just right.
Best comedy show on TV right now!!! George

Awful
Mrs Brown is a popular comedy character here in the UK. No, this isn't a joke in itself, it's true. She's won awards and everything. The question is how and also why the BBC in their wisdom continue to devote so much scheduling to her.
This is their latest gimmick. I mean 'idea'. A chat show set at Mrs Browns house. How funny. Not.
Through in musicians eager to plug an album and some very average guests and you've got a prime time Saturday night programme.
Oh dear. If ever there was a reason to go out on a Saturday night it's this.

I'm giving it a chance. I like it so far.
I've only seen three episodes, but while it certainly is a departure from the sitcom we all know and love, it's something fresh and new. I'm giving it an honest try. It's still humorous.
Watching a bit of the original series from 2002 - 2008, the show seems to have always evolved. 70% drama, 30% humour. The most famous sitcom run, 70% humour, 30% drama. Now it's mostly comedy.
They will probably still have a Christmas special. Who knows? I'm going to see where this goes.

Making for Money?
I am from Canada and even the most remote find an love your regular show and specials I be the intro. The problem with this is no one outside your area knows none of the guests. Give the world what wants so reverse your scripts here and write limited eps. if be for the original! I hope this gets read by as many cast as possible! ty
Wouldn't even give one star
I honestly don't know how this tripe even gets on TV. One of the worst things I've ever sat through. Mrs Brown's Boys is bad enough. Irish comedy is better than this!
Noel House Party ... feck no
Its just not as good as the show... the games are awful
Yes its modern variety but the show has more

Time to have a holiday and refresh Brendan
I have every respect for Brendan O' Caroll and his comedic genius of the Mrs Browns Franchise. This however has hits and misses of it but mostly misses. The thing I find most annoying is that Mrs Brown has to be present in every segment it gets too much. I would love to see the development of the other characters like Buster and Dermott, Winnie and Grandpa and even Cathy to be given their own right of development instead of being kept on a leash. Chef Ali is refreshing but the reggae has lots its appeal. The new Rory i also annoying sorry:(
This is a disappointment, standard has gone way down
I have loved everything I saw from "Mrs. Brown" until the show started bringing in celebrity guests, and changing the concept by adding the talk show part...
I hope to see more from "Mrs. Brown" in the future, but please go back to the way the show used to be - it was the best comedy show I have ever seen, but not after the latest changes.
Before this, I rated Mrs. Brown 10 stars - this version only gets 3 stars from me.

Great Gun to watch. Give it chance.
At first, I was a little sceptic, but after a few episodes, it actually quite funny, and I love the stories from the celebrities, and mrs Brown.
All I can say is, give it a chance, you might actually like it😉

Comedy Struggle
Mrs Brown´s boys was brilliant and hilarious, even though some of the jokes were old. This series falls far short and struggled to raise a laugh out of me and I switched to another channel midway through. The humor (rare) is stale and needs a huge boost if it´s going to last another boring season.Much of the content is like patching holes in dry-wall. Brendan, please create something entertaining for viewers.
A bit of a let down

Like following a great steak with spam on a saltine.
Should have been halted when the premise was first uttered. Too preposterous to entertain for more than 2-3 seconds. Mr. O'Carroll's predilection for taking chances is part of what made the first show great, but like inching toward a precipice, eventually you will fall.
