Overrated and overhyped

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Channel 9's fight against the other network's comedy shows. It delivers some good sketches that leave laughing so hard that I have teary eyes. The idea of "Bloke Man" and the lawyer who's living next door to the rowdy neighbours. They're both bloody fantastic! They have their video clip send ups which are very classy as well. A bit similar to what is on Channel 7's Big Bite, which I must say is a complete flop in comparison to Comedy Inc and Skithouse.But there are a few of their sketches that provide some very poor taste. I remember about a year or two ago, they had Harry's Practice going to visit a human guinea pig. The bit where they bring in the anthrax being tested just killed it! Anthrax is such a delicate topic that a lot of city people wouldn't understand. It's a disease which has caused farmers a lot of strife. There are some other sketches that are poor taste with that.Comedy Inc. have done some jokes that have been very mild. I couldn't get a laugh out of it unless I was drunk. Which makes other sketch shows like, "The Sketch Show" and Australia's "Fast Forward" and "Full Frontal" look far more superior... and they are of course.

All the people I know who love watching Aussie comedy on TV agree there are only two things worth watching at the moment - Chris Lilley's 'We Can Be Heroes' and this sketch show, which is frankly even funnier than 'Heroes'.This show has lasted long enough on air (now in its 3rd series) to finally become a fantastic show. Comedy fans seem to agree series 1 was one of the absolute worst things ever on Aussie comedy television. Series 2 was a lot better but still patchy, which is pretty surprising given it was only about 10 episodes long.Finally, they've got it right in this series. Everything about it has improved, the acting and the production quality, but most importantly the writing. It's just so consistently well written and clever I sometimes can't believe it, especially when the series is so long. I loved 'Fast Forward' and some of the other commercial station comedy shows, but even though some of them had great casts and stars like Shaun Micallef ('Full Frontal' for example), none of them had writing as good as this. My favourite would have to be 'Ernest the Engine Car', which is one of the most scandalously funny things I've ever seen on any TV show, but there's plenty of other great stuff besides.Hope there's a DVD of this series soon, can't wait for it.

This show is simply unfunny. In the 6-month-ish period it has been running for, there has been only one slightly funny sketch - ONE I tell you.
When I first saw it advertised on TV, I was looking forward to it, but when I first sat down to watch it, the first sketch went past, the second, the third, the fourth, the fifth, etc........................., and afterwards, I thought to myself, "Have I Missed Something?".This show which claims to be a "comedy" - watch it if you must, but if not just read a book when it comes to Wednesday night.

Oh man, I just can't stop laughing. I rolled around on my couch for ages. I mean 'McClouds Sons'? How do they get away with it? 'The Banal' instead of the Panel? Nothing's sacred!!!!!! Be scared? You should be. You better be on the lookout. If you're on TV be wary these comedy geniuses are out to get you. Rove better be on the lookout they're taking him on. That guy who used to be on Totally Full Frontal, the guy from Hey Dad and that Ugly, Ugly, Ugly Lady are the most brilliant satirists in the WORLD!! Not just in Australia! THE WORLD! Oh they're SOOOO FUNNY. I just LOL! everytime I even see those Wacky opening credits. THE CRAZIEST AND BEST AND FUNNIEST AND MOST EXTREME AND OUT THERE AND OUT OF CONTROL AND BITING AND OH IVE JUST RUN OUT OF EXTREME AND BITING WORDS BUT IF I HAD THEM, I'D USE THEM. Brilliant Satire.
