Was pretty ordinary. I managed about 10 minutes before I switched off. Won't be watching again. Lacked humour.............. :

It will be on next week.

Channel 10 defy the laws of physics by both sucking and blowing at the same time. Look no further than Big Brother, Australian Idol, Friday night games, Rove and basically anything they try to do in Oz and you can be guaranteed of one great snore fest. If it wasn't for the f1 and the simpsons, I'd never watch channel 10.

I read a review in the paper proclaiming it to be the best show since Full Frontal - hrmmmm maybe not. Trash.

Thank God Your Here makes me larf really hard sometimes, it's a good show.

Micaleff is hilarious, such a quick wit, bring back Milo Kerrigan!

The wedge was supposed to air earlier in the year, but 10 held it back.

Any show to use Toula (the mole from SBS's Pizza) on a main network is going to kill ratings.

Besides the Ronnie Johns show and comedy inc, what else has kept going and hasnt died in the a** within a fortnite?

Aussie comedy took nose drive after fast forward. Michael Veitch was a classic. I caught a show on ch10 late at night called the Ronnie Johns hour or something. A few episodes of that are pure classic.

I avoided the wedge big time, looked very kath and kim to me. Not my style of haha...

Pizza was a ripper of a comedy series, but alas it only appealed to people with ethnic blood, as most of my pure Australian friends, dont really get it

Pizza was an awesome show.... but it pains me to say it got worse as the show progressed. To focused on "themes" now... used to be great when they were just pooning around wherever the series was set.

Sleek da elite and davo were the kings!

I agree Phil, totally rubbish. But I hate that sort of stuff anyway. If I want to laugh, I will watch Rowan Atkinson, Billy Connelly and Jimeoin...

The Wedge was a shocker, anything that is ever hyped up will always be bad.

Fat Pizza on the other hand was great, all my mates loved it, even the none ethnic one's mostly because most of us resorted to pizza delivery when we couldn't get any other work.

Fat Pizza was great. I remember being one of the first kids in my school to watch that show and telling everyone at school about it. Then a couple of months later it was a massive hit and everyone loved it. It lost its appeal to me a little once it became very popular. Now it is a bit silly. I have watched a bot of 'da world cup code' or whatever it is called and its a bit strange!

Wedge was OK....Ronnie Johns an Comedy Inc. is way betta tho.
As for Aussie comedy, it's hard to go past the original Fast Forward...
Then look at Pommie stuff.....Go Hale and Pace, Benny Hill among others....

I was in the garage swearing at my car.

Don't think I'll be sitting down to watch it next week though. Doesn't sound like I missed out on much at all.

Jeez dont you guys think you're being a little harsh?
i dont think so. it was hyped up so much and it sucked balls. i really really doubt it will improve over time.

i look forward to ads saying "now in a brand new timeslot" which means its been moved to 3;30am or just before the midday movie or whatever ch10 has at noon.
