Open Slather: teasers

Look again. That ain't no Gina Liano nor Gina Rinehart....

Hold onto your hardhats. Here comes Gina Riley as Gina Liano -and Magda Szubanski as Gina Rinehart in the Comedy Channel’s upcoming sketch comedy Open Slather.

That’s a lotta Gina…… you have been warned!

Casting a satirical eye across the pop culture landscape, Open Slather is a weekly comedy show commissioned by Foxtel for The Comedy Channel. The 20 episode series will be a no-holds barred send-up of Australian culture, identities, celebrities, and politicians.

Creating a comedy ‘hot pot’, Open Slather combines the talents of comedy legends who have made us laugh for years, (Glenn Robbins, Magda Szubanski, Shane Jacobson, Marg Downey, Gina Riley, Stephen Curry, Michael Veitch and Jane Turner) with a new wave of comedy performers in a one-hour prime time Sunday night show.

Filmed on location and in front of a studio audience, the series will also feature regular guest star appearances in unexpected roles.

Drawing on the proven track records of the highly experienced producer team of Rick McKenna (Kath & Kim) and Laura Waters (Summer Heights High), this will be a show chock full of razor sharp commentary on contemporary society.

Each episode parodies popular culture, politics, sport, music, media – all the things that capture the imagination of the public and get people talking. From the Real Housewives of Melbourne to Downton Abbey, Gina Rinehart, Hillary Clinton and even Superman, no one is safe!

It’s the landmark comedy show that Australia has been waiting for. Subversive, energetic and risqué, everything is up for grabs – it’s literally Open Slather.

  1. Wow, those promos look stunning. Love me some Gina Riley and good to see that the rest of the girls are back together for this.

    With Gina playing Gina and Magda playing Gina, it’s going to be easier to just call everybody Gina to save confusion.
