GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Micitype Pretty Good
Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
taz_682 Completely cringe-worthy. Very difficult to watch for more than a couple of minutes at a time. Some of the comedians involved have to be better than what the show produces. I cannot believe that they would watch an episode of the show and be proud that they were involved.Even the sketches chosen for ads on Foxtel are not at all funny or clever. They provide no motivation to watch the show and I would suggest Comedy Channel really suggest reviewing it.I would not recommend this show to anyone, young or old.
angiegodden I actually watch it and I'm embarrassed, Its literally just a bad fart joke. As a human being I felt it necessary to sign up to IMDb just to complain, I normally read the reviews for a chuckle but thought "the hell with it, I don't care if my inbox gets spammed with promotional material and my email address gets sent over to Nigerian scammers, I have to vent my spleen. Even the ads irritate me, it might have to do with the frequency. Foxtel stop flogging this dead horse - I would rather watch tired re-runs of Father Ted knowing Dermot Morgan is dead, even that 20 year old comedy is funnier than this show. How can so many talented artists affiliate themselves with this embarrassing career sinking show? I should have known it would be bad from the poor previews (aren't they meant to highlight the funniest parts?), but thought it would be slow to start with. But no, not one laugh. Not one "hehe", not one "tee hee". Nothing. I feel like i'm watching a funeral. Well, in a way I am. RIP Open Slather.
Sirtuinhilip Bishop I agree with above; I was expecting Gina Jane and Maggda to be doing something like a 'Chris Lilley' format, but this was just an attempt to yet again rescusitate the tired Fast Forwadr formula - already it was tired in 1989 Remember the "Big Gig" hosted by Wendy Harmer - you can watch episodes from 1988 and its more cutting edge than this "comedy" made in 2015. Remember the D-Gen? Then Catherine Tate, Little Britain? For God's sake they could've done better than this embarrassment! Our best comedians go overseas and don't look back ... ABC airs Qi every.single.day ... why can't we do similar here instead of family feud. Or relaunch the Big Gig? Comedians have to go o/s or shmooze with the mainstream and the past! ONE LONG CRINGE MOMENT!! (THE GIRLS EXCEPTED)
Panny Kobab Five words - where the f..k is Kelvin Cunnington? Thats six but I'm being as economical with words as these guys are with laughs. What happened to Australian comedy? Why did our media get gang tackled by the political left in the late 80's and hasn't looked forward since? The reeffo epilogue was just a gross indulgence by the creators. Lets get to the point. I'm sick of Micallef telling me how stupid the right is, so I don't watch anymore after his breakthrough "hilarious period" - then there's the Project which quite funny but the comedians always stuff up the gags as they forget their lines. Now this dross. Our media is a gov subsidised joke of an industry. Just leave the political stuff to commentators and make us laugh. Paul Hogan talked about who we were in our own language. Barry Humphries laughed about who we think we are. The current generation of comedy writers have no idea who we are so they tell us who we should be. Living in leafy suburbs, wafting around in expensive cars between meetings then make a social comment comedy series. Out of touch, bereft of creativity, without any clue that there's about 15 million people who live here that they forgot. Like Cath and Kim. Geez, Fox have taken a risk on this bunch.
