Review: Frank Of Ireland

It's a squally, inconsistent show, and one that could certainly do more to make the viewer want to spend time with these aggressively dysfunctional characters. But if you don't mind the lack of depth, Frank generates his share of primal laughs through sheer commitment to the mayhem.
