  2. Charlie Pickering is the best regular on T”BYG, so thumbs up for him. I don’t mind Carrie, same goes for Hughesy but his “oiiimm angry!” – LOL good one Neon Kitten – routine does get a little tiresome. I wouldn’t mind Ruby Rose either – not often you get a fresh face on free-to-air. But there are still question marks over the exact format of the show… I wonder what they’d all be doing?

  3. hmmm.. hughsey can be pretty flexible, his breakfast show is not all angry, just the 30 seconds where he ‘loses it’
    carrie B makes sense, she is on the pay roll, familiar with viewers and not offensive, but yeh she’s a little bit weird
    Corrinne is a silly idea, she is not very funny and way to political for 7pm on ten, (she is based in melbourne also though)
    and charlie p. is good form, maybe add Celia Pacquola also or even myf warhurst?

  4. @ John – you are my hero. So sick of people thinking Carrie is some sort of comic genius – she should not even be on tv let alone given her own hosting gig. If I watch Rove, I mute the tv when she comes on.

    As for Ruby ‘I’m a lesbian’ Rose another giant MEH.

    I’ll go with Charlie from that list.

  5. Charlie Pickering is not bad.

    If there’s going to be a female in the mix have Rebel Wilson…Bickmore is just a newsreader, seriously.

  6. Carrie Bickmore is garbage. She doesn’t have a comedic bone in her body.

    Over time her comedic timing has improved but she still can’t deliver a great line to save her life no matter how strong the material (she doesn’t write) is.

    How about this Roving Enterprises, I’ll barter with you.

    Slot Carrie into this 7pm program destined for failure and rehire Corrine Grant.

    Remember the Corrine, Peter and Rove days? Back when the show was actually funny?

    “Would you like some parmy on that love? Keith! Parmy!”

    We all know what happened. It was when Rove aired Tuesdays and The Glass House Wednesdays (or was it Fridays? Either way Corrine left Rove because she was based in Sydney where she filmed the glass house but worked on Rove in Melbourne (or is it the reverse?). To stop herself from having to make the trips back and forth so frequently she chose The Glass House over Rove which can’t be held against her as The Glass House was filmed where she was based.

    Fast forward 12 months and the ABC relatively motiveless cancels The Glass House and Corrine is left without a job.

    Rove do yourself a favour and get back Corrine she’s the comedy injection the show needs… not feeding lines to an unfunny and extremely unclever journalist who *always* manages to say something incredibly awkward or insulting when major guests are on (see Anne Hathaway, dozens more).

  7. Carrie at the News Desk is the best bit about watching Rove and often we’ll tape Rove and that’s the only bit we watch! Her comic timing is excellent!!!

  9. When Hughsey is not doing his “oimmm angry” shtick, he can be witty and clever. But Carrie Bickmore has the worst comic timing I have ever seen. Charlie Pickering is good, but not really a drawcard. It seems like a very Melbourne centric line up, so it might be a turn off for Sydney viewers, and maybe Brisbane too.

  12. Big thumbs up to Pickering! He has shown an awesome knowledge of pop culture and current events on TBYG so bring him on board without a doubt!
    A big ‘meh’ to Bickmore. I’ll be excited to see her spread her wings sans Rove but she seems a big fluffy and soft for me.
    And a big thumbs down to Hughsey! How the hell does he fit into that picture? His inclusion confuses and frightens me about what the product will be.
    Lol @Neon Kitten for the “oiimm angry!” line. That’s killer.

  13. I’d watch Ruby Rose….she’s very nice to look at haha. Neon Kitten Agree completely about Dave Hughes one joke that has carried him all these years, his bogan accent really frustrates me.

  14. Hughesy? Please no.
    He has one shtick – whining. (Funny, I thought Judith Lucy had the market cornered.)

    Carrie Bickmore has excellent comedic timing and is a real television talent, so yes to her.
    Charlie Pickering is going OK, probably needs more telly time to sharpen his presentation, so yes to him too.

    But the real personality they should consider would be Shaun Micallef. If they are looking toward a “Daily Show” type of format, he would be perfect for it.

  18. I really like Dave Hughes, Carrie Bickmore is awesome. This show sounds quite invigorating, here’s hoping its similar to The Daily Show.

  24. I love Carrie Bickmore. I’d watch her every night. Though Dave Hughes just drives me freaking mental. I hadn’t heard of Charlie before TGYH, he’s ok. I prefer Josh Thomas though.

  25. Pickering? Absolutely?

    Bickmore? Yeah, okay.

    Hughesy? Oh hell no. The man has one joke (“oiiimm angry!”) and he’s been living off it for too many years now.
