The Paul Hogan Show - National Fuel Crisis

[1970ifeelalright]

I haven't laughed so hard in quite some time ! Great humour from Oz t.v. programmes . So much crap comedy t.v. here in the U.S. ; SNL is a shadow of its former self ; "Frasier" , "Seinfeld" , "Cheers" are classics .

I didn't realise that Hogan had a comedy show . I'll have to watch more !

[daboodeef179]

I'm an american. I don't watch everyone loves raymond. that was horrible. I like south park, the daily show, two & half men...good stuff.

[matt61234666]

@daboodeef179 agreed. everyone loves raymond is SHIT. two & half men is my favorite comedy currently.. show is great!

[MrJacMac1986]

Paul had an Australian Monty Python going on there back in the late 1970's

[winterstellar]

Yeah! I f&%king hate "Raymond"!!: )

[illuminatusds]

I miss Hoges and Strop. Not to mention the lovely Delvene of course....

National Maximum Speed Law.

[truespyfan]

Bring back good aussie tele..

piss off all that crap american shit that floods our tele... they are about as funny as a punch in the face.. Everyone loves Raymond? WTF?

[xradio86]

@truespyfan it is the same in Canada I mean yes we speak the same language but that don't mean we have the same culture

[HTMonaro76]

You can't beat good old Aussie humour!!!!!

This skit is very true to whats happening now in today's world...

Peak oil was reached in 1972 and we been on the decline ever since then in terms of oil reserves left.

[maccystory]

Yes, it's Karen Pini...both Delvene and Karen were the hottest chics on tv in those days...

[malllamoozoo]

canned laughter is shit!

[suzazza]

this is where most of us will probably be very soon!!!

[hoppermantis]

Hemp for victory !!! 10% of food crop space would power america through hemp oil? why are we allowing our country to slowly degrade into a third world level? And now L.E.A.P. is questioning our methods against the drug concept... I truly want to understand so i can feel like patriot. Good enough to win ww2 but not the hostile management of oil overseas...

[Chakotay024]

I wish we could find the asshole who check thumbs down. Fuck off wanker. Free Hemp!

[hoppermantis]

:) he must have been a patraiot act supporter :/

[puremongrel]

not bad for the 70s

[pelpos1]

The oil embargo and the energy crisis of the 1970's was the wake up call, we never heeded! Now look at us gas is $4.00 plus and climbing, that horse doesn't look so bad after all. See you in Montana!

[Mazwreck]

Peter Bakos is my uncle

[francis1971]

And he was a genuine jockey, too

[martinses]

That's not Delvene. That's Karen Pini.

[AccordionManiac]

why aren't they airing these on great comedy classics?

[Wholelotofshakingoin]

This is the way the world will eventually go back to when we run out of fossil fuels.

[keef71]

never saw this one before - hilarious

re the babes - always had a soft(?) spot for delvene ;-)

[malllamoozoo]

soft spot or hard cock?

[CrocodileHoges]

As funny today...

[rikjaymad]

stuff was genuinely funny back then

[Youtoplet]

Slutter- it has nothing to do with Howard just the Western World as a whole heh.

[thedys70]

How good were the babes like Karen Pini and Karen West, who Hoges had running around Benny Hill style in skimpy gear week after week? Dyso

[DangerousBastard]

Fuck political correctness. Its just a subtle form of censorship anyway. But there was no fuel crisis really, its was all fake!

[Cty2]

yes it was and there was no Political correctness either :) people had a sense of humor but the humor seems long gone

[slutterbug]

how innocent australia was then. No John Howard....

[WiseGuy02]

That's right we had Gough Whitlam, who was so useless he had to be sacked.

[slutterbug]

yeah...like free education, medicare, reconciliation for aboriginals....how useless...

[wally183]

Yeah, and sending the country into massive debt, Huge unemployment problems. What a really good government!

[lisaanne07]

So true

[Aquila21]

AH the days of hoges I wish i was alive when it was airing
