''The End'' (first broadcast September 1993) is an adult comedy television strand on Network Two/RTÉ Two in the Republic of Ireland. ''The End'' was aired on Friday and Saturday night from 11pm to 2am. RTÉ used this show to test the audience appetite for late night TV. ''The End'' was presented by Barry Murphy on Friday nights and by Sean Moncrieff on Saturday nights. ''The End'' had a cult following of "drunks and teenagers" who would often ring into the show leaving bizarre late night messages for the presenters. Sean Moncrieff would be joined by a puppet called Septic in later seasons. Barry Murphy would use ''The End'' to launch many of his Apres Match characters such as Frank Stapleton. Sean Moncrieff would get a new chat show on RTE One called ''Good Grief Moncrieff'', however this was not a success due in part to the conservative and mainstream RTE One audience. Later he would go on to present the RTE Two series ''Don't Feed the Gondolas''. ==Format== Barry Murphy presented Friday Nights with a mix of his surreal comedy and introductions to the classic BBC comedy series ''The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin'' and the US sitcom ''3rd Rock from the Sun''. Sean Moncrieff presented Saturday Nights with a mix of interviews and introductions to classic BBC comedy series ''Fawlty Towers'' and ''Yes, Minister''. Colin Murnane who had moved on from RTÉ young people's JMTV and Plastic Orange, appeared on both nights as a reporter. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The End (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
