Dapper Laughs: On the Pull is a British television dating show which mixed comedy sketches with real-life situations and featured comedian Daniel O'Reilly, in character as Dapper Laughs, offering dating tips to members of the public. [1] The show was largely based on the content of his Vines which was how he was discovered.

The show was criticised as sexist and promoting violence against women. [2] Following these criticisms and a campaign to have the show discontinued, ITV announced that a second series would not be commissioned. [3] [4] [5]
