This article needs improvement per style guidelines. There are numerous articles available through a G-News search that can be used to expand and source this. The film began online. Won a first-time RTE award, and is now gone to festival. Its getting coverage that appears to show it meeting WP:GNG and WP:NF. That coverage should be used.

NPOV Issues
editSome of the issues with the article:
- POV language: "the Hardy Bucks possess a unique irreverent humour".
- Unsourced quotes: "One of the best comedy acts to come out of Ireland since Fr Ted." - described as from the Irish times, but no date given.
- More references needed to support claims in the article.
- A series of undated review quotes which look more at home in promotional material.

Another matter is that the article could be broken up into more paragraphs.Autarch (talk) 18:17, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
- Some POV has been removed, some tags and a link added. One other thing - another series of the show is described as "currently" in development. WP:MOS advises against using language like that under Chronological items, specifically Precise language. Autarch (talk) 18:28, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
Live shows section
editSome broken markup appears there - I'll leave it rather than try to second guess the original author.Autarch (talk) 22:01, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
