A TV series that ran from 2001 to 2003 for three series, it is a milestone in Irish TV drama. A snapshot of three diverse young men trying to hold it together while living in a vast city centre pad, think This Life without the inherent cynicism and massive consumption of narcotics.

A better introduction to contemporary Dublin than The Commitments, as it captures something of how much the city has changed since the economic boom whilst delivering a genuine taste of Dublin's charm and cool. Most people I know watched this with a permanent smile on their face.
