Micallef Tonight - First Day At Nine

[Bigmc712]

So this is why it got kicked off channel 9...

[d0nkeyshines]

The "guy" at 0:40 is Ronnie Burns most likely from when he hosted the AU version of Strike It Lucky in 1994

[Jeao007]

I'm from the US, and this show is 10x better than the tonight shows we have over here.

[Fuzzbuggy]

Francis at the end... rofl

[tntpuppy]

He's just undercover for channel ten in this video

[orangejuuz]

Comedy genius.

[chinesechicken89]

hahaha the programming department.

[CReadiusPro]

Why did this show get axed?? I loved it! I guess some people don't get jokes?

[butterflycaught900]

@CReadiusPro australians dont like to think. they preferred mindless humor like Rove

[CReadiusPro]

@butterflycaught900 I would like to meet Rove one day... So I could punch him in his face!

[gloomyoutlook]

Something of a self-fulfilling prophecy

[pomegranateish]

That cat is freaking adorable.

[joeltopgun]

hahahahaha Francis Greenslade!

[SinistarrMC]

9 is still the one, a statement as true as it is gramatically awkward!! lmfao

and the don lane joke was classic, only 1 guy got it though

[xxjohnnydepploverxxx]

he is HOT

[camilleri63]

I'm tellin Johnny Depp!!!!! :p

[Raida7]

LooooOOooove the programming

[poopoo0111]

i was struck by...... a bottle

roffll

[rosemurray]

To my mind, a cross between George Clooney and Martin Mull.

[smashedmatt]

i love the one person in the audience who got the Don Lane/coffee table joke

[setitonxfire]

I noticed that too lol

[betweenlakes]

I know. I wouldn't have even noticed that brilliant joke if the guy hadn't laughed like that.

[pomegranateish]

@smashedmatt

What is the joke? I'm not familiar with Don Lane

[smashedmatt]

@pomegranateish It's been often said that Don had some odd sexual fantasies. Including a combination of 2 people, a glass coffee table and excreting feces...I'll let you fill the gaps...

[pomegranateish]

@smashedmatt

I'm almost pleased to say that my mind is unable to fill the gaps.

[SunHillFire]

the wolf-mask-wearing-cat is perhaps the greatest moment in Australian comedy history. The surreal absurdness of such a thing sums up Micallef perfectly. The law should be changed so that the networks have to feature an hour of Micallef each week.

[ClaireBearOhYeahx]

agreed, wolf mask wearing cat was my favourite bit :)

[ostimeg]

If that happened, I would love TV forever.

[Sailorsega]

@SunHillFire No the law should be changed so that the networks have to feature an hour of Micallef each night! And it should be a World Wide law.

[tvbloke]

Haven't enjoyed seeing the Programming department as much since I first saw "The Barefoot Executive"!-)

[fishy10]

"the wolf mask wearing cat!!!" hahaha

"The best thing about working for channel 9, other than the unlimited access to crack cocaine.."

COMEDY GOLD!!!

why the hell did they cancel this show? it was the best show on television.

[Jacklus]

Because Australia if full of idiots who don't like humour that takes a bit of thinking to get

[boysdontcry95]

by that you mean channel 9

[Madsenband88]

@fishy10 probably coz of that comment he made lol

it's great that he's still on tv on tayg but its not the same :(

[SummerTeethEtc]

No wonder 9 sacked him! God I miss Micallef!

[thornton85]

Micallef is a class act through and through! Every bit of that skit was comedy gold! the programming part was unbelievably funny! More Micallef please....!

[Wellesix]

holy shit, that bit about the expert programming department was incredibly close to the mark all things considered hahaha...

[gettothechorus]

I loved it too!

I swear that's how Channel Nine do all their programming! HAHAHAHA!

[MadeManG74]

Put your damn pass on! I loved this show

[KaceKlosed]

Man, That was good!!! "...reminder of the heavy mantle about to be lowered...over my fire place".

[Jabjabs]

Let me just say this. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH! I didn't tape this episode and I have been looking for this since about 1 minute after the episode finished some 4 years back.
