I only saw the last three episodes of this show but i was hooked...I was furious when it was canned i had only just started telling people about it...
It's a shame. He's a comedy genius - but the jokes in "Welcher" just fell flat on the ground. A sitcom is by definition a bunch of characters cracking wise to each other while remaining in character - and it's a convention that Micallef's brilliant lunacy was ill-suited to. Some of the later episodes were better - but the first episode was woeful.
Did they replay this recently or something? That ABC1 watermark wasn't around back when this was first broadcast.
