I won't be watching it again.

The Wedge, Ronnie Johns, That SBS Bogan Show, Mark Loves Sharon... any bogan comedy all suck.

Very small business is piss funny though. Mike, Well I admit I haven’t adhered to the law of 3 and I admit that I posted after only watching a bit of an episode but the 2/3rds of 1 episode I saw was pretty funny aus comedy :) I must admit I did think “one joke pony” a few times while I was watching but then so is hollowmen and I still dig that :)
“Review” made me laugh out loud a few times during the ep that I saw which is more than I can say of most aussie comedies recently :)

It’s repeated Friday Nights on ABC1 (late night). I watched it – wasn’t very impressed.

It's called "Review"and basically it's a show where a rich, pretentious, overly verbose arts critic type guy called Myles reviews basic life stuff. Like in this episode he reviews "stealing"where he starts with stealing a comb and then escalates his thievery before giving stealing 3 stars :) He then reviews "dickhead mates""running out your partner in cricket" (one star) and "being a bushranger" It's Australian comedy and I'm really enjoying it and am glad I stumbled across it. So check it out. I’ve just stumbled upon a cracker of a show on abc2 at 9:30 thurs nights.

Cheers also for the quiz win. Ted was on the most recent dancing with the stars USA, apparently. In the spirit of Brett's Kate Ritchie leaving Home and Away news, I believe that Brett reported on this one some months ago: http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/story/0,26278,24502910-10229,00.html And John, you asked for it (safe for work, mostly): http://www.australele.com/gavins/ButtDR.jpg Cheers, Gavin Great episode again, although I was half expecting Syd James to pop in a couple of times.

I won't say too much about it for those who haven't listened yet but it has made me love Middleman even more. I've had a a scout around and it isn't available yet on DVD - Amazon doesn't have a listing for it so we may not see it before Christmas. They usually have stuff available for pre-order for at least 4-8 weeks but nothing yet. How totally cool was the special letter to boxcutters this week?

Anyone else find it slow? What’s the deal with podtrac… it took me about 4 1/2 min to direct download rather than the usual 30-50sec.
