Loved the conversation at the wake with uncle Callum and sister Michael genius comic timing

When the camera pulls back there is just somerhing about the room setting. You know

[@dsgp7835]

Orla yelling "Oh my God, it's a polar bear" I cry laughing every time i see it. I pull it up just for a laugh.

My favorite part is when the nun pulls up in her hometown in a DeLorean, flips up the sunglass part of her cool shades, and her cousin speaks in Gaelic entirely. The hidden humor here is that DeLorean cars were made in Northern Ireland because John DeLorean found labor to be cheaper there, mainly due to lots of men who were eager for a job since the war torn aspects of the area created unemployment. Due to circumstances, a humble nun would be more likely to have access to a very expensive, otherwise rare car, and she drives it around like, "no big deal"! 😆 I only know this because I watched a documentary about John DeLorean on Netflix. This is brilliant writing and makes me wonder how many other hidden jokes I've missed, especially since I'm American, much of it probably went over my head, including the expressions, slang, and lingo....

Loved the show from day one!! My family are Irish so I can relate. My fav episode is The Bill Clinton arrival. Michelle's 'You're a Derry girl now' speech to James really choked me up!! Can't wait for the film. Will be a good craic

[@hadbetterdays]

It's time for a spin-off, and "Derry Nuns" centered around Sister Michael should be made.

[@CainP]

As an international fan, I had to look up the history of Northern Ireland and binge watched and read all night. Hahahah it was great!

I’m a Filipino and I really enjoyed this show. Loved the humor!!! 😂

[@juliehughes1258]

Such a fantastic show. I loved it all. My favorite episode/scene is when the Orangemen are parading through the streets of Derry and the families drive off to get away from them. They end up with an IRA rebel in the trunk of one of the cars and he spray paints two rifles (and "up with the rebellies") wherever he goes. The adults try to figure out what the graffiti means, and their guesses are stilts, golf clubs or spatulas. Pa (Tommy Tiernan) is pissed off about this and explains to the others that "they're RIFLES." "Really? Are you sure?" "Fairly sure. I also don't understand what connection spatulas, golf clubs or stilts would have to the Irish Resistance!" Grandad: "Christ, he's a dose." Fucking cracks me up every time because I love Tommy Tiernan. Then immediately after this scene, the owner of a borrowed tent explains to the kids that "once your tent is erect..." and over-sexed Michelle cracks up and the other kids give her serious side-eye for her insane response. PURE COMEDY GOLD. I have the entire thing recorded on my phone. This show of a different time and place reminded me so much of my high school years. So universally relatable, even with Northern Irish teenagers during the Troubles.

This show is criminally underrated! The 3rd season was amazing and that ending 🥹

[@andrewjones575]

The ending is very disappointing. We don't know what qualifications the main characters gain, nor go to university nor start careers. Four of the five still haven't started their love lives. We don't know what any of them want to do with their lives.

[@izhabellissima]

@@andrewjones575 most of us loved it because of the significance of the Good Friday agreement

[@andrewjones575]

@@izhabellissima We knew that'd happen before we started watching. I expected to see the main characters at least be accepted into university or start full-time jobs.

[@izhabellissima]

@@andrewjones575 too bad for you I guess?

[@andrewjones575]

@@izhabellissima And the many thousands of others who expected to see proper endings for the characters, including Erin & James being a couple.

Thornhill is in Derry... my daughter is doing her a-levels there atm lol

[@ZenobiaDecrespin]

The best show EVER Love them all. We need an update series please

[@hocejorn]

this is one of the top tier comedy series i've ever watched.

[@maethomas8422]

As an American the Bill Clinton episode was hilarious😆

[@SavannahSedai]

I wish my grandma was alive because I would have made her watch this and she would have LOVED that episode. And probably the whole show. She LOVED sitcoms AND Bill Clinton lol. I got my mom into the show and she will call me crying laughing. We are all American and still enjoy it so much. I did have to look up a few words haha

[@BlueJazzBoyNZ]

The Stories are real epic and true

[@franceslorainepaduga6124]

Loved this showso much❤

[@WiFiFoFum]

To the narrator: the school the writer went to, Thornhill College, is in Derry, not Belfast. The clue is in the name of the show 🙄 c’mon people seriously

[@MGCaverly]

How profound might be, a “Quinn”: “Cartman” (Eric]), connection?

[@andrewjones575]

What?

[@isimhemheoboh2394]

I love this show sooo much
