An Crisis ("The Crisis", using the Irish article and the English noun) is an Irish comedy television series which was first broadcast on TG4 in 2010 as a six-part miniseries satirising the inner workings of an Irish-language quango. It was written by Antoine Ó Flatharta and directed by Charlie McCarthy.[1][2][3]

A sequel, titled Crisis Eile (IPA: [ˈɛlʲə]; "Another Crisis") aired in 2013. The action shifts to the European Commission, with Maeve Kelly Clarke (Bláthnaid Ní Chofaigh) exiled to Brussels as Ireland's new Commissioner.[4]
