Its not that I think this show is bad, its just that it doesn't have much that original. In style and tone, its very similar to shows like 30-rock, Stephen Fry's Absolute Power and the 2001 ABC comedy Corridors of Power.
I'm not a huge Mick Malloy fan, I think he was a fairly second rate comedian who was pretty much propped up by Tony Martin in thier infamous must listen radio show during the 90s but he's got proper scriptwriters backing him up here so he's doing fine
That was not funny at all. If this is supposed to be a funny tv show then you'll need to hire some good scriptwriters. I noticed the reference to "Arrested development", a very funny, and ironic show. If you're hoping to emulate that style of show then stop basing your humour on juvenile, inept characters with not an ounce of wit between them. Clever this isn't!
@brentond I think your being a little harsh. it's not that bad. Admittedly it's not Frontline or The Games but as satire goes it's okay. Australians feel safer with satire than sitcom because it's taking the piss out of something as opposed to coming up with an independant concept. I'm up to episode 4 now and it's grown on me fast enough. It's basically senidng up The Chasers so if your an overseas person watching this you might want to look up the Chasers or else u might miss the joke a little
@bluejeckett . You have obviously considered what I've said and replied intelligently to my criticism and I sympathise with your point of view, however, looking at the other opinions expressed here I'd say you're in the minority. I love a good comedy but unfortunately this is not one. No offence to you but I'd suggest that watching a few episode's of anything would start to grow on you. I even got hooked on "Melrose place" years ago. I know, you don't have to tell me how stupid that was.
@brentond Well thanks for that but no I don't just start enjoying something purely because I continue watching, I think people who are like that must be pretty simplistic. If you don't like something you don't keep watching it so that doesn't make much sense. And I daresay i am in the minority but Australians are pretty harsh on thier own produce so that's nothing new. As I said I am not a huge Mick Malloy fan and this is going over some old territory Frontline already dealt with but cud be wors
I have terrible news for everyone. This show is awful. Another paralysing load of intellectual failure. Who the fuck told these people they were comedians. They should go back to acting. Except Mick Molloy who should go back to comedy.
another try-hard molloy attempt, man i was disappointed, loved late show and martin/molloy, mick just can't do it on his own. better go put on crackerjack to refresh my feelings...sorry mick!! :(
@RobertsNetworkCom If you mean Emily Taheny (Kat) yes, she was in Comedy Inc. ^^

Why is everyone slagging this off? Before you go and run down new stuff, write your own series and sell it first, then I might listen.
