How did the lad from TMZ get on?

TV3 DEBUTED A new hour-long version of its flagship entertainment show Xposé this evening.

It was broadcast live from a new studio in Ballymount, and also featured the station’s new signing – Peter O’Riordan, aka THAT GUY from the TMZ video.

The idea was to be “stylish”, “fresh” and with a new level of “interactivity” featuring viewer tweets throughout the programme – as well as fresh segments and more panel pieces.

Peter, meanwhile, was down to bring a “cheekier presenting style” to the show.

Anticipation was high.

Whoops!

We couldn't find this Tweet

And how did it go? Well, some people were dead impressed, frankly.

Some, however, were disappointed with what they saw as a strong resemblance to E! News.

Maybe this is what they meant by a cheekier presenting style.
