RTE Tommy Tiernan Show viewers come to sad realisation after latest episode as they share disappointment

People have been hailing the Tommy Tiernan Show as "the best thing on TV" for the past few months with the comedian praised for his masterful interviews.

It was no different after Saturday night's latest episode, which saw the chat show host take a 'psychopath quiz'.

RTE viewers were slightly caught off guard by the time it took Tiernan to answer some of the questions, with the results finding that he was a below-average psychopath.

However, people at home also had a lot to say after the programme ended, with many coming to the same sad realisation.

The episode marked the last show in the current season, with many viewers expressing their disappointment that the programme would be on the break for a few months.

Tiernan first took the helm of the show in 2017 and he has impressed audiences since with his ability to connect with a wide range of guests despite not knowing who he will be chatting to until moments before the interview takes place.

Viewers took to social media to praise him again after Saturday's show, which featured psychologist Dr Kevin Dutton, comedian Pat Shortt, and musicians Rhiannon Giddens and Tolu Makay.

They also said they couldn't wait for the next season of the chat show already.

One said: "I cannot believe that is the last show in the series. The best talkshow on TV. Will miss it a lot. Not particularly a fan of the replacement show. #TommyTiernanShow."

A second wrote: "Will be missed on a Saturday night! #thatisall #TommyTiernanShow."

A third commented: "This will be missed for another season. The best show out there. Fair play Tommy and RTE."

A fourth said: "This show is the best thing about Saturday night TV @Tommedian @RTEOne."

Someone else added: "Brilliant show looking forward to next season."

While another viewer wrote: "At these times when we can be seriously overwhelmed with nothing but negative news stories, master storyteller @Tommedian brings a sheer sense of genuine warmth to his interviewing style, that sadly a lot of hosts sorely lack. Can't wait for more....... #TommyTiernanShow."

The same person added: "There's no doubt @Tommedian can really do an insightful interview because he’s actually interested in the person he chats to. As much as I'd love to see him host The Late Late Show, really think it would be a waste of his talent as a master storyteller.... #TommyTiernanShow.

"Amazes me how @Tommedian can get such utterly insightful interviews from random everyday people as well as the more well known stars - treating them all equally, with the same level of respect regardless of their stature in society. Bravo Tommy.. #TommyTiernanShow."
