History

Your Bad Self stars Domhnall Gleeson as well as Michael McElhatton, Justine Mitchell and Peter McDonald.[1] The show was produced by Ben Kelly for Treasure Entertainment (I Went Down and Mad About Dog) and was co-written by Kelly, the director John Butler, Eoin Williams, Justine Mitchell and Emily Fairman. Butler was the co-writer and director of George and Spacemen Three for the Irish Film Board.[2]

In June 2009, RTÉ commissioned a six-part series of Your Bad Self.[3] The series was to be filmed towards the end of 2009 and broadcast early in 2010.

Reaction

John Boland of the Irish Independent sat through it in "stony silence".[4]

gollark: Yes, just casually edit the strong nuclear force.
gollark: > wake me up when they finally create quark chem<@206392503509843969> IIRC you can't work with quarks on their own because they only like to exist in groups for unfathomable physics reasons.
gollark: That's just a minor engineering problem for engineers to engineer.
gollark: Deuterium's just in water, ez.
gollark: They're probably expensive because of high material cost (AND likely energy input) in making bombs.
