The TRY Channel launched on YouTube on April 30, 2018; with several "pre-release" videos in the three weeks before this as advertising. It grew out of a recurring series on the Facts channel, where a group of Irish people would film reaction videos about various (usually) non-Irish things.The premise is simple: up to six different people per video, usually grouped into pairs, will spend each episode either eating, drinking, or watching another video, and the TRY video shows their reactions. If it involves food or drinks, there will be, usually, four rounds, representing four different flavors or varieties; a video reaction "shoot" usually involves the group watching one episode of a show (generally the first episode), or other Web Original.Most of the TRY'ers are, (according to their Twitter bio's,) comedians, independent filmmakers, or otherwise involved in film/TV production already.They have their own website, and YouTube Channel.Also, there's a mailing address for sending them things to try:

Justine heavily dislikes whiskey. Also, while no one on the channel likes durian fruit, Justine's reaction to it is closer to outright trauma.

comment
Sincerity Mode: One video had four LGBT Tryers discuss their coming-out stories. As you might expect, it gets very emotional, and aside from some dry jokes here and there it’s very serious. Not a bad thing at all, though, and many comments praised the participants for their courage and offered support.

Arc Words/Catchphrase: "That's class!" - Usually Lolsy "I don't like [cinnamon/peanut butter/chocolate/etc.]" - Various TRY'ers "Sláinte!" (Pronounced sounding often like "slancha", means "health" in Irish and Scottish Gaelic and a common drinking toast.) - Usually Leather Jacket Guy, but others have joined in.

Pronouncing My Name for You

comment
Pronouncing My Name for You: Some of the TRY'ers have Gaelic names, which to a non-Gaelic speaker do not look like they're pronounced at all; luckily, most of them get said by other TRY'ers at some point. These include Blaithin (pronounced "blah-heen"), Eadaoin (pronounced "ay-deen") and Ciara (pronounced "keer-uh"). Averted with Clisare, which is her internet handle; her real name is Claire.

Large Ham: Lampshaded in one video; George Fox pointed out, while disliking a particular item, that "some people [state] in the comments that we're overacting; we're not." Given that, they occasionally will bring some porcine production, to point out some feature that caught their attention. Or to make a joke.

comment
Anachronic Order: Some of the pairings will film several segments, but they'll show up out of chronological order; since the other pairings in each video will change it will make it hard to tell when anything was filmed. (Usually the only clues to this happening will be comments under each YouTube video from one of the participants, or a later pair will open a package which an earlier pair had already taken food from.)

Only Known by Their Nickname: The official Tryers page lists several cast members by their nicknames instead of their real ones: The Leather Jacket Guy; or at least it's a Screen Name to help separate private and public life (his real name is Max Byrne). The same goes for Irish Jesus (Paul Finglas). "Lolsy" is a nickname (her real name is Laura).

Trademark Favorite Food
 The TRY Channel (Web Video) / int_ad641426
comment
Trademark Favorite Food: Mostly an Inverted Trope; watch enough videos and you'll learn that Dermot despises peanut butter (and George doesn't care for it, as well), Brian doesn't care for Cinnamon (and a few other items)... On the flip side, several TRYers (particularly Dermot, Martin, Brian, and Ciara) love strong alcohol, especially whiskey. There were also episodes centered around red velvet treats and white chocolate snacks because they were sent as gifts to TRYers who particularly loved them (Dermot and Lolsy, respectively). Dermot even gets an extra bag's worth of stuff he doesn't have to share with anyone, to his great delight.

The Lad-ette: Justine Stafford has a very stereotypically "guy" sense of humor, and often makes sex-related jokes which, while not being explicit (in that she rarely uses crude slang), are usually unexpected enough to break the TRY'er she's paired with. Her segments often devolve into giggling as the other person gets blindsided.

Never Gets Drunk: A Running Gag is Ciara O'Doherty's insane alcohol tolerance. It took four shots of the strongest absinthe they could get their hands on to make her only slightly giggly. Even in the second bourbon video, after four drinks, she looked totally unaffected. Averted for the rest of the cast back in the first bourbon video, complete with lampshading by George.

Hilarious Outtakes: Three compilations of various outtakes and bloopers — mostly made while drunk — can be found on the channel. Some highlights include Ciara and Mary-Claire speculating about how much tail Jack Daniel got, Dermot and George doing Nicolas Cage impressions, Lolsy and Brian painting each other, and Dermot devolving into a borderline-unintelligible Midlands accent:
