This is so much better than most of the sitcoms I watched in the 90s. I tried watching Friends again after a decade plus and just couldn’t do it anymore. This is more my speed
@@theoriginalchefboyoboy6025 totally a fan of Blacks books. Makes me appreciate when he gets ripped apart in Shaun of the Dead all the more. Good stuff
When I watched a few Friends episodes recently, I couldn't believe how out-of-touch the characters were. Poor kids, having those "shitty" New York apartments. So "oppressed" and whiny. lol It's kind of hilarious, but in a bad way.
This is a very sweet episode. Father Stone isn't really a bad guy. Probably just a bit simple and the reveal that he thinks of Ted and his visits as the best thing in his life says a lot, especially when you meet the abusive father.
he is also a real mammys boy too. mammy thinks the world of him more than the father. and maybe i could be wrong, but the nana might have dementia or another form of illness. she doesnt seem like she cares much for anyone. its not mentioned in the show but that is the irish mentality
It's interesting to note that part of the reason that Father Ted had a change of heart towards Father Stone is because his dad came in and verbally trashed him. Father Ted related to that which is foreshadowed in the waiting room where he described himself as the idiot son who became a priest and his parent's preference for his brother who became a doctor.
@@danielwilliamson6180 I also thought about it and it's possible that it's just a comedy show that doesn't need analising. Take it as it is and have a laugh.
@@londonlady227 Naaaah, Eeyore goes out of his way to be left alone, whereas Father Stone goes out of his way to insert himself into your life to make you uncomfortable 😆
Lol that's why I'm here, I saw him in that and was like I need to watch father Ted again, that show was awesome. Haven't seen it since it originally aired.
I'm french canadian, raised catholic but not too much. This resonates very well with me. We've got a very american way of looking at harmless jokes... I'm glad this exists
"Do you remember that film, Ted, where a man has his head transplanted onto a fly, and the fly's head is transplanted onto the man?" "Oh yes, what was that called?" "Out Of Africa, I think."
Thanks for uploading these. I'm stuck in Italy at the moment, for the last 4 months, and being an Irish lad, these episodes warm up the pot of stew at the bottom of me heart and bring back fond memories of home. Missing the old place
Totally outstanding performance by Dermot (the dad) - he only appears for a minute, but it's pure gold !! It's almost terrible to see him leave the room :)
He sounds like a cousin who came to visit from England. Same one word replies. Just about tore my hair out! Coming to beautiful New Zealand and all she wanted was to sit at home, Arghhh!!!!
A typical rapid-talking Irish would die of psychical exhaustion while in his presence but a typical Chinese would take Fr. Stone as a blessing and love his relaxed soul
2:13 - 3:17 Best part... That's me when you're trying to have a conversation with me. That scene could have been going on for several more minutes with Ted trying to start up a conversation and Paul giving terse answers not leading anywhere. It would have been hilarious, and relatable.
Just want to say thanks for having the whole series on here. This show is one that my family can quote anytime. We've grown up watching it and it's great having it right here to just look up and forget about the problems of the world for a bit.
thank you for putting this show up. I couldn't afford to get the dvds and absolutely love british tv. this show Is very addicting. first half of first episode and I'm like "what?", but after the fair, I was hooked. I want to make a tshirt with the freak pointing picture on it, think it would sell big.
Hooked on this looney lot, but really sad to hear that the actor who played Father Ted died so young. Watching from Australia during these crazy covid times.
If Dougal had never walked into the room in the beginning... Ted: Seen any...ehm...good movies lately? Paul: ................No. Ted: .....Right..... Paul: .................... Ted: .....This weather, huh?!.... Paul: .................... Ted: ....................
I expected Dougal to be his usual self, totally oblivious and unaware, and so i wouldn't have expected him to be bothered at all with the silence, and not even realise the akwardness
Dang, I was Father Stone to a T till I was about 20. Can't speak for him, but all I wanted was to hang out in pleasant company and not be a bother while everyone else went about their business. Ted and Dougal feeling forced to entertain him as a guest would be awful. Treat him more like Father Jack and it'd probably be fine.
Brilliant series so funny, very clever!Wish it had never come to an end! 21st May 1019. because of this series I travelled from 'South Africa to see Ardal O' Hanlan acting in the theatre such good actors all of them!
This must be my 6th or 7th time going thru this series. I consider EVERY episode a classic. There’s not a stinker in there. I think these will be regarded as brilliant sit coms like ,,forever!!! Of course I loved Fawlty Towers and Blackadder, but these are just so re-watchable.. the laughs are there always . Like the first time watching.. I’ve turned a dozen people onto “Ted”,, And almost all of them agree. Worth the watch is an understatement. It’s a must
People always cite "Are You Right There Father Ted" as the best Father Ted episode, but as much as I love that "So I hear you're a racist now Father" scene, this episode for me is the best Father Ted episode. Ted, for all his scheming and materialistic desires, is a good man and this episode really shows the full gambit of his personality, and even gives us a nice redemption arc in under 25 minutes! Often times characters don't really change or grow in an episode, like "Are You Right There Father Ted", funny as it is, Ted is the same man at the end of the episode as he was at the start, but this episode has Ted still slightly put off by Father Stone, but at the end he's changed and at the very least content to have Stone visit.
In retrospect it doesn't seem so bad to me. If all this is what it takes for him to feel such appreciation and gratitude, I honestly don't mind having him sitting like a lump. Such people don't naturally deter my friends from talking.
Barnaby ap Robert I don't think so actually. It's a lot harder than it seems to steal the show while saying nothing at all, to stay in character so fantastically and to react rather than to act. Frank Kelly was the real deal.
Actually Frank Kelly hated having to just sit there and do nothing, he was a theatre actor and they only gave him three words to say, the other actors used to feel sorry for him cos the writers never gave him anything to do.
it's far too early in the series to really appreciate it, but Stone being the only thing to deter Mrs. Doyle from serving tea is highly telling.
True true.
Brilliant!😆
He would just go "no, I'm fine" for eternity, about being offered tea
@@tojoinbobdylan Indeed! Perhaps he wore her down over several visits, and she finally gave up😁
This is so much better than most of the sitcoms I watched in the 90s. I tried watching Friends again after a decade plus and just couldn’t do it anymore. This is more my speed
then try Black Books as well - same producer/creator.
Try the Bottom live shows. Just watched The Mighty Boosh - give that a go too.

The Thin Blue Line and Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie are also MUST WATCH 90s sitcoms!

I thought the same thing about friends, I'm watching it right now, but push through the early season and it's funny again.

This show is quickly becoming one of my new favorite things.
This channel is
Iiiiiiiiii don't believe it !
"I told him big massive lies with fecking bell hanging off them!"
Father Stone should start a UA-cam channel. He'd be great at reaction videos.
He could compete with Charmx
I found him relaxing, but I know not everyone would.
Or some ASMR
He does. It's fine.

Father Ted related to that which is foreshadowed in the waiting room where he described himself as the idiot son who became a priest and his parent's preference for his brother who became a doctor.
I thought about it and it's possible Father Stone could be suffering from clinical depression.
@@danielwilliamson6180, or malignant sociopathy.
@@whitewarrior4777 Last I checked, sociopaths don't act like Father Stone, so that doesn't work as a possibility.
@@danielwilliamson6180 I also thought about it and it's possible that it's just a comedy show that doesn't need analising. Take it as it is and have a laugh.
And Father Ted always hung the picture up of he and Fr Stone from then on.
Everyone has a Father Stone in their life...
and if you don’t, you’re the Father Stone in someone’s life.
Yeah i am pretty sure it's me.
No, I'm fine.
Or an Eeyore in Pooh's world.
@@londonlady227 Naaaah, Eeyore goes out of his way to be left alone, whereas Father Stone goes out of his way to insert himself into your life to make you uncomfortable 😆
I rewatch this show in full once a year for the past 4 years. I love the sense of comfortable familiarity it gives.
And now Dougal is going to be the new detective inspector on Death in Paradise! LOVE IT.
Lol that's why I'm here, I saw him in that and was like I need to watch father Ted again, that show was awesome. Haven't seen it since it originally aired.
Imagine Dougal and The Cat as their characters, but the rest of the show is still Death in Paradise. Chaos, bedlam, fish fingers.
Dead Parrot, you 're brilliant for sharing with us these wonderfull irish and british sitcoms. Keep going!
Old women are closer to God than we'll ever be ☝️☝️☝️

There are more priests than parishioners in that island! :p
Should be called pedo island.
not all priests are pedophiles... some chase after women...
Yah I know, I'm just kidding.
They are all disgraces to the office, after all.
There's Mary and John and Tom....and that racist old lady and man, and a whole Chinatown.
St. Peter: "The gate's open. Sure you don't wanna go in?"
Father Stone: "... No I'm fine."
St. Peter: (sigh)
"Do you remember that film, Ted, where a man has his head transplanted onto a fly, and the fly's head is transplanted onto the man?"
"Oh yes, what was that called?"
"Out Of Africa, I think."
Ha ha ha
Father Stone's painting appears in the background in the future of the show.
I like how they kept the painting for the whole show.
Thanks for uploading these. I'm stuck in Italy at the moment, for the last 4 months, and being an Irish lad, these episodes warm up the pot of stew at the bottom of me heart and bring back fond memories of home. Missing the old place
Fair enough. I'm from Cork myself. I often watch Father Ted when I leave. That or the show where the fellow inspects houses. Something designs.
Come ti trovi in Italia, amico?
writing for Dougal is just brilliant, so is the acting
I would say I'm like Father Stone, but he's much more fun...
Same here.
i wish i was less like him, but i lack the social skills...
Same :D
No...you're fine.
I love dougal hes just so innocent
I actually like Fr. Stone. Seems to be a chill guy and easily satisfied. Wonder what his sermons were like?
This is such a cute show. I'm so happy all the episodes are free to watch!
for now, til the creepy nazi terf writer gary linehan finds out
@@hildawgsoldtimetastytampon2042 Can you elaborate I have never heard of this.
I watched this for years in New York. I found it here. Hurrah. Brilliant!!
Totally outstanding performance by Dermot (the dad) - he only appears for a minute, but it's pure gold !! It's almost terrible to see him leave the room :)
Love him!!
Come back here often to re-watch. Thank you for posting✌
The bath scene 😂😂😂
Even though I've seen it a few times, when Stone sits on the toilet when Ted's taking a bath it still gets me! Lmao!
I love how John politely open the door for Mary:D
Love the entertainments and the horizontal rain -- they don't miss a trick.
Thanks for putting this on UA-cam or else I would never have found this! Thanks!
He sounds like a cousin who came to visit from England. Same one word replies. Just about tore my hair out! Coming to beautiful New Zealand and all she wanted was to sit at home, Arghhh!!!!
Sounds like a barrel of laughs 😉.

Me too. Only Father Stone talked more in this episode than I did through all of High school
SAME!
I love this show! Ireland is wonderful for going with such a gold comedy series!
I'd love to see an interaction between Father Stone and Father Noel 🤣
It might be just like it is when very hot and incredible cold weather frontiers colide... But Dougal won´t mind to be struck by lightning... again...
Ah, it's not so bad! He doesn't require anything, he doesn't need to be entertained, so why do they just not do what they normally do?
Exactly. He’s not asking them to sit there, they feel obligated to for no reason.
It wouldn’t be funny if they did that. Stop taking it literally.
I was thinking about the same thing.
Because it’s a comedy and your scenario wouldn’t be funny.
@Nobody Mellow unless you don’t have locks
Just want to say thanks for having the whole series on here. This show is one that my family can quote anytime. We've grown up watching it and it's great having it right here to just look up and forget about the problems of the world for a bit.
8:57 One of those moments that makes Father Ted so funny. 😂
thank you for putting this show up. I couldn't afford to get the dvds and absolutely love british tv. this show Is very addicting. first half of first episode and I'm like "what?", but after the fair, I was hooked. I want to make a tshirt with the freak pointing picture on it, think it would sell big.
This episode is the definition of uncomfortable.
I'm on episode 2 and I'm already addicted to these series
20:25 "God forgive me for saying this, but wouldn't have been better IF HE'D BEEN KILLED?"
The delivery of that line lol
And very Irish..... nothing worse than parents playing the martyrs over their kids.
Wow, this is almost as awkward as trying to chat with someone on Plenty of Fish.
ChesterKhan pof is a feckin shitehole...youtube is where it's at!! lol
Hahahaha! Good one!

When jack pushed Ted out the window it made me laugh so hard
Thank you thank you thank you for posting these shows!!! 😁😁😁
God this is brilliant
The best series in the world. Thank you for uploading it with Spanish subtitles. genius
I love that cup
always love watching father ted such a great classic episode
9:01 subtitles: "Bit of a backdraft. Nearly out!"
Vojife That’s way the said
I was recommended this show by some friends, definitely not disappointed!
That smirk at the end makes all the difference. This show is smart, funny, charming, and wholesome. I love it.
As a New Englander it irritates the HELL out of me that there's so much light, and therefore cold, coming in around the front door!
Lol, yeah I noticed that too.
As a non-New Englander, I haven’t got a clue what you’re on about.
Mild weather there. Not too hot not too cold year round. Changeable. Rainy, windy and cloudy though.
"My bath would be ready by now" The water isn't even running anymore. I think it's broken...
This is the original idea for It Follows 🤪
Terrible's too, too small a word, Father, too small a word.
I thought Austin Purcell was the most boring priest in the world. LOL
If Dougal had never walked into the room in the beginning...
Ted: Seen any...ehm...good movies lately?
Paul: ................No.
Ted: .....Right.....
Paul: ....................
Ted: .....This weather, huh?!....
Paul: ....................
Ted: ....................
Brilliant series. Going to love it!
Michael Redmond (Father Stone) has a official UA-cam channel.
I expected Dougal to be his usual self, totally oblivious and unaware, and so i wouldn't have expected him to be bothered at all with the silence, and not even realise the akwardness
Father Stone's father is still nicer than my father was. lol
