After weeks of anticipation, Gogglebox Ireland finally premiered on TV3 last night and it's been mostly well received by viewers.
The Irish Gogglebox premiere got off to the best possible start with an all-time TV classic.
The Angelus - great start! Love #GoggleboxIRL already!!

#GoggleboxIRL was very good. Best part probably the woman blessing herself when the fictional character passed away...

However, there was one family that stole the show for most people. Cavan twins Fergal and Neal Tully were a hit from the get-go with their recliner couch.

So overall it looks like Googlebox Ireland is a success. There's already talk of a spinoff.
Idea for a show! Me watching #GoggleboxIRL with Bosco.....we could call it GobbleBosco! Boom! Telly Gold!
