Extra! Extra! Read All About It!

Extra! Extra! Read All About It! is an Irish television sitcom that aired on RTÉ 1 for one season in 1993. The show was written by and starred stand-up comedian Morgan Jones. The show was notable for its negative reception. Writing in the Connacht Sentinel, journalist Declan Tierney gave the programme a negative review: "to say that this is a pathetic attempt at comedy is being kind to "Extra! Extra! Read All About It!"" and stated "the only indication that it is a comedy comes from the canned laughter, which is over-done and often goes on for so long that it is impossible to hear the start of the next sentence". Writer Colm Tóibín stated Extra! Extra! was "probably the worst programme RTÉ has ever shown". Extra! Extra! was later included in an Irish Independent list of the worst Irish TV programmes.
