First off i think its the fact that Lucy Kennedy presents it is a major problem, she tries to be funny, alas she is not. She brings a formal approach to the show when the camera stems from Podge and Rodge onto her talking to the camera, I get the feeling she loves the sound of her own voice. This show was just a simple vehicle to further her career. Shes totally pointless. And why on earth did the creators give Podge and Rodge human bodies in the intro?! They look bloody stupidPodge and Rodge are still there however but the overall concept is stupid and the "Celebrities" they interview just go with it and crack a smile and a chuckle when Podge and Rodge rips the p**s out of them - "ho ho ho, you're such funny little puppets" Overall its very watered down. I miss the wee stories they used to tell on A Scare at bedtime and the jokes they made were awful funny.My question is Why did they cancel A Scare at Bedtime?? and then put this on, only for it to end as well?

"A scare at bedtime" i found to be one of the funniest programs ever, and had great Irish humour (coming from the people, not the people looking down on the people). "The podge and rodge show" carries some these elements through but not with the same stage to make it as potent as "a scare at bedtime". However, as a purely an interview based program it couldn't be better and if was pat kenny, id be watching my back. They ask the unaskable, and fearlessly place their guests in positions of bafflement as to why they agreed to go on the show. They should keep the level of guest lower however, as its better to watch them ridiculing nobodies, rather then asking serious questions.
