AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Jeff Perkins Indeed, very possibly the funniest show on Australian television at the moment, though there are some close contenders, though none on commercial television.Shaun has always been one my most favourite comediennes on television, due to his cleverness, but this show really takes the cake.Not just laugh-out-loud funny in most "sketches", but very, very, cutting in its insights. Every news story picks exactly the correct thing to pick on, make-fun of, and satirizes to make even the most horrific story of the week hilarious.A genius at work once again. The only thing I could pick on, is could we perhaps have an interview conducted by Francics knee? I am eagerly awaiting the spin-off series of "Inspector Herring", Rex has a new challenger.

relaxed_sphincter I used to watch the Daily Show until it got unfunny. This show is somewhat like that except that it's funny, has a talented host, does more news, and doesn't have idiot celebrities being smug in "interviews". It's not really much like The Daily Show actually.This is also of a much higher quality than that purported "satire" program on the ABC at a similar time on a similar day in a similar country (Chaser's War) which seems only to consist of idiots being annoying and thinking they're hilarious.But digressions aside, this is the greatest Australian show I've ever seen. The jokes are delivered with a rarely-seen rapidity (concentration is required for the duration) but to view it as only a comedy would be folly: there is an incisiveness into the news that we barely see on television any more (with the exception of Tony Jones on ABC's "Lateline") that underlies the comedy, making it all the more satisfying. Also in the credit of the show is its balanced view with regard to political issues: presenting fact without polish. This is aided immensely by the lack of interviews with political persons.A knowledge of current events in the world will enhance enjoyment of this show, but it is not a prerequisite.This is quality political satire that doesn't stoop to mocking the hygiene/appearance of political figures (as seen in Chaser's War), but, instead, focuses on the politics.Micallef is not only the funniest Australian comic mind operating today, he's probably the smartest. The fact that he's supported by a talented team of writers and performers only adds to his prowess.
