The first episode of Ireland’s Blind Date aired tonight on TV3 – and people had A LOT to say about it.
From hilarious puns to some seriously cringe moments, the brand new TV3 series made quite the impression on social media.
The show is fronted by comedian Al Porter – and it looks like everyone agrees that he’s the perfect host.
See how people have reacted on Twitter:
