    So proud to see our Derry Girls are really doing well ❤
  • @thetheo859
    The detention scene in the first episode is literally the best scene in TV history, pissing in classroom, rifling thru a dead nun’s purse, eating a dead nun’s sandwich, sneaking out the window, playing with the dead nun’s body😂 omfg genius!
  • @HH-mw4sq
    Well it seems Stephen invited her "specifically" to be a guest on his show. Hopefully no nuns died for her to make it to the show on time.

    Derry Girls is one of my favorites. When I saw that Sthephen was interviewing Jackson, I clicked right away. Everyone in Derry Girls was brilliant and I can't wait to see Jackson in Decameron. (Oh, and her Mom was terrific, too! A very talented dancer, it appears. Go, Mom!! 🎉. Hee hee...)
  • @maddiek1980
    She’s always so entertaining. A wonderful story teller. She was so so so brilliant in Derry Girls. Looking forward to seeing Decameron.
  • @msmerlot1979
    She is so charming. I was watching "Derry Girls", last week wondering if she was in anything else. Now I have a new show to watch .
  • @susan174
    Saiorse is an invenntive, sophisticated, engaging storyteller and therefore a talented comedic actor and therefore excellent all round actor. . . Can you tell I’m favorably impressed?(!!)
  • @Jivolt

  • @yuyu2007
    She is so funny!! I’m so glad she’s getting more attention here in the states! Derry Girls is a must watch.

    We love saorise-monica jackson and stephen colbert
  • As a Derry Girls fan I'm so happy for her new series. As an Italian, I am terrified of what Netflix did with The Decameron.
