I love this movie so much

Redundant and unnecessary.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Disappointing, considering the geographic and historical opportunity. Very poor, loose, derivative and predictable script. Shades of "Inbetweeners" and "Some Girls" with even more over-acting from a bunch of unconvincing well over-aged actors. This is nowhere close in quality to Father Ted, Blackadder or Fawlty Towers, and deserves nothing close to a 10.

A lot can happen in a 30 minute sit-com, and Derry Girls is no exception.
The comedy performances, writing and production is spot-on, slo-mo and steadycam shots of mundane action backed with awesome 90's choons (and Whigfield). I like it, maybe you will too.
Notable episodes are #3 and #4, when our gang chase the dead-ringer of Erin's dog, Toto, into church and to witness a miracle involving Our Sacred Lady investigated by a dashing Priest, and when the Children of Chernobyl visit Derry, which could take them out of the frying pan and into a different frying pan.
Great cast, some pretty decent character-driven humour (including the older generations) and an interesting take on the setting and period make for a great formula, not too burdened by PC or a political agenda.

But this is #@%&* hilarious!
It's rare for any TV writing to surprise me with originality, and far rarer still for a "comedy" show to exhibit enough originality to catch me off guard, but this is a piece of abso-frecking-lute genius!
If you're from the UK of GB & NI, watch it; you'll laugh your @rse off.
If not, give it a try, and google lots. to try to get where these absolutely brilliant characterisations come from.
I'm actually jealous that someone else wrote this brilliant work!

I do not normally watch shows like this, but I found it to be laugh-out-loud funny.
