Joy in the Hood is an Irish comedy series featuring Des Bishop. Aired in 2005 on RTÉ Two as a part of its Monday-night comedy slot, it showed Bishop's antics as he travelled to impoverished areas of Ireland, such as Ballymun in Dublin, Tuam in Co. Galway, Mount Vernon in Belfast, Southill in Limerick and Knocknaheeny in Cork to run comedy workshops and integrate into society in these places.
