I would have thought Paul Murray Live would certainly have qualified as Comedy. It’s hardly serious news/current affairs.
Orange is the new black is the American show, Orange is the new brown the Australian one.
So which country makes Brown is the New Orange? Could be Irish?
Oh love this…?….. one of the side benefits of running a blog…..
I love ABC News Breakfast…unfortunately…I am not an early riser…unless I pull an all nighter…so I tend to catch up with the Breakfast Couch…
I love News Breakfast too, although I am surprised to see it poll well as the ratings don’t reflect that. However, being a pure news channel means that the show gets very repetitive over three hours, so I jump over to 9Life for a while, and watch Good Bones, House Hunters, Texas Flip etc for a palate cleanser.
I’m surprised the woman who does the “My Perfect Eyes” ads wasn’t a contender for most overexposed performer.
‘Penny Lane’…. how could I forget ?
Breakfast news television should take note of the opinions that people don’t watch, would rather sleep and that they’re all terrible. I agree. I haven’t watched any morning news programs in years as they are a bland and depressing way to wake up to. They should be replaced with comedians, like The Panel. Aerobics Oz Style should make a comeback or there could be a meditation or yoga themed program, along with more variety, like Good Morning Australia but without infomercials.
I agree. A long time ago, there was one hour of news in the morning (actual news). Now it’s three hours of entertainment and cash giveaways and sometimes concerts to disguise the fact that there is pretty much nothing apart from the window dressing. And most of the other news programs on the commercial stations is pretty much the same thing. I think that they should only cover the news and get rid of the Cash Cow and whatever character Today has now that gives away cash.
But Mad As Hell is the best news show!
Very good!
Carrie “Brackmore” .. not even remotely close to the pronunciation
iPhone autocorrect is probably to blame for some of these
Yes I agree for Highest We Have a Problem. Walled Ally particularly amusing.
A UK theatre review once referred to Rhonda Burchmore as Ruda Brickmore. It has followed her ever since. I say Brazil Zeplas stays from here on!
Gold. Hilarious.
A friend bought a cheap compilation CD from the States what seems like millennia ago with Absolutely Everybody sung by Theresa Ambrosi.
I love all of these so much! I even agree with a few of them (Gogglebox voiceover lady is very underrated!)
Aerobics Oz Style… LOL, it’s probably more entertaining than Karl and Kochis jokes lol
Calling parliament a kids show is an insult to kids. Waleed needs to change his name to Bob
Hilarious stuff. I’ve already laughed enough for the entire week reading these. Thanks for posting David. Thanks for being so clever fellow readers.
My favourites were Best Morning TV Programme: Sleep & Best Aussie Reality: Parliament Question Time.
That’s one of the funniest things I’ve read in a long time.
If ‘Tits! Tits! Tits!’ doesn’t premiere on SBS this year, I will be very disappointed.
It’s a sequel to the Noel Edmonds UK show “Cheap! Cheap! Cheap!”
I take it you haven’t seen ‘Naked Attraction’ on 94 Thursday nights then….
I imagine Tits! Tits Tits! is a return to family variety show entertainment on weekends
This is hilarious David ? thank you so much for posting.
Those three exclamation marks. It’s attention to detail that makes a joke work.
Needed a good laugh, thanks for that….
Would have thought that Trump would be listed as ‘worst unreality show…’
You really don’t want to see bullfighting. I went to one in Spain last year. The end of the bull’s life is incredibly graphic (so graphic, YouTube won’t let me post the video).
