It's an Irish show... Irish writers, actors, locations etc... but RTE didn't think it was any good and passed on it, so Channel4 (UK) paid for it.
There were a few series (3 I think). Then they decided to finish it, just because they wanted it to always be fresh. On the night the final show was being shown the star (Dermot Morgan) held a party for his close friends and died of a heart attack (I think).
Buy the DVDs you won't be disappointed!
