The Dunphy Show, presented by Eamon Dunphy, has been cancelled by TV3 (Ireland) from 12 December 2003. The show occupied a Friday-night slot opposite The Late Late Show. Many people believe that this was its biggest mistake-could it ever realistically compete with the longest running chat show in the world? Many people did not take to Dunphy's style of interviewing guests and week after week the ratings fell, resulting in it being axed by TV3.
