The Pat Kenny Show
The Pat Kenny Show is a television chat show which was broadcast in Ireland by Raidió Teilifís Éireann (RTÉ) in the mid 1980s.
The show was created to fill the vacant Saturday night slot after the departure of Gay Byrne's The Late Late Show from Saturday to Friday nights. The Pat Kenny Show was Pat Kenny's first attempt at hosting a chat show. He had previously been more concerned with presenting current affairs programmes. The show itself was a failure and was replaced by Saturday Live, a chat show which was presented by a different presenter every week. Kenny was given another chance when he was asked to present one edition of Saturday Live. This time he proved to be a success and went on to become the regular presenter of a new show, Kenny Live.
