You won't be disappointed!

Excellent but underrated film

The first must-see film of the year.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Show is not funny at all. Not even a slight "....hehe....." came out of my mouth. Half the time I found myself asking how is that even a joke?How a group of people decided this was funny enough to be put on the air is absolutely beyond me. I actually go out of my way to tell people how bad this show is just to make sure I see the day it gets the axe.Donald trump impersonation is amazingly bad. Looks nothing like him and tries wayyyyyy too hard. Russell brand? Couldn't watch it, was cringing too much. ***spoiler alert**** Here's a joke from this great showRussell brand - "I remember you from when I was on 60 minutes" 60 minutes host - " I remember it being more like 60 seconds"........funny.....real funny......grade A material right there.No wonder most people think Australian comedy is a joke and not in the good way, it's shows like this that give us a bad name. I actually may have to attend anger management due to this show.Some of you may not be religious and that's fine, I pray at night. Not for world peace or a cure for cancer no no, I pray this show gets Axed and somehow every trace of it gets erased from the Internet. Almost like it never happened.

Having seen 10/15 episodes so far, the first season started strongly with biting parodies of well known figures. The Real Housewives of the World series was good and showed the older Fast Forward talent was still kicking. Gina Minehart struck a chord too. Hannah Bath's similarity with Princess Mary of Denmark is being put to use which is also good. The parodies tended to be spaced out by weaker social commentary sketches, although the natural talents of the actors get used well sometimes, like Glenn Robbins' dweeby characteristics. It's a shame the talented social comedy writers Jane Turner and Gina Reilly with the much vaunted Kath and Kim, Glenn Robbins' successes with All Aussie Adventures, Shane Jacobson's larakin Aussie with Kenny, and Michael Veitch (Fast Forward), Stephen Curry (the Castle), Marg Downey (Fast Forward) and Magda Szubanski (Kath and Kim) just being...well...themselves, haven't cut through here as much as they might. A lot of it often feel more like one line jokes in sketch comedy routines than jokes that can be played out. With the insight and ability to tap into culture demonstrated by the very talented cast (and I need to also mention Emily Taheny who has runs on the board from Comedy Inc and Mad as Hell), it seems that the show intended to take a lot of risks - at least that's what the intro from the first half the series promised. It seems like all the brilliant minds that are vested in this project need a blank canvas to go nuts, take bigger risks, and come out with some (hopefully) brilliant unique characters that can carry the series. Kath and Kim, after all, was a one-sketch joke at one point. Foxtel needs to renew this show, and give them what the title promised - an open slather creative licence to find their voice. Either the show should soar like an eagle or go down in flames, but a "safe" middle grounded production helps no-one.

I had to write this review out of pure disdain. I have endured three episodes of this show now and felt so compelled to voice my grievances. There is literally no redeeming factor to this program, to say I haven't cracked a smile is an understatement, my face actually turns into a grimace watching this show. We are presented with sketch comedy, some recurring sketches litter this mess. The humour is base, juvenile, even plain pathetic, completely lacking in any sort of faculty of funny that I start to question who legitimately puts money into this being made or whether I should perform a home lobotomy. The recurring sketches, such as RacK, the priests in the church, the medieval war-rousing, True Detective parodies or even the Gina Rinehart parts are just cringe worthy. Really? That whole 'mine' thing is funny? Sweet Lord don't let me live.The media campaign around this show has been nothing short of intrusive, something anyone involved in this show should think twice about doing again because you're all inviting people to see exactly what it is you 'do', and it's bad. How these 'comedians' who write this can actually sit through make-up, costume and get to various suitable locations to film their skits without once questioning the utter disgrace they are about to commit to screen is beyond me. Some of the comedians are seasoned faces I know and recognise, well, I say that but they're all washed up, clearly, as I haven't seen a lot of them for years save on those 'comedy relief' type fundraisers where people turn a blind eye to the quality in the name of a good cause. As for the new faces, I'm afraid. Afraid you might release something again, plague my screen with filth, debase my brain further and drive me to an early, tragic grave. For the love of all that is humorous, please stop this madness, please. The only funny thing about this show is that I watched three episodes of it. The utterly depressing factor is that this show is slated for 20 episodes. Wow.

Let's be honest here this is a c+ show. Some skits are good , they hit the mark and are still culturally relevant but the rest of the skits are talking about shows and cultural moments that are well over two years old ( eg downtown abbey) it may be early days yet for the series considering the extremely generous 20 episodes it has been given by the comedy channel it might come good but I wouldn't hold my breath.skit shows are Supposed make fun of or satire pop culture, this show does that with shows that are past there cultural peaks Eg downtown abbeys peak was 3 to 5 years ago, the same goes for mad men and bear grylls , the real housewives of Melbourne skits would have been funny if this show had aired last year but everyone is now over the gimmick of that show and are looking for something new. Considering the amount of awesome talent that the cast has I'm extremely disappointed in the outcome of the show. Comedy channel good luck trying to keep our attention for twenty episodes when some of us lost interest after week one.
