FTA-TV Modern Family

[Catfish Alley]

I liked how there are Dingoes in Sydney and you can just go on random walkabouts with aborigines around the harbour. Seems like the city has changed.

Smirked at " Crocodile Dunphy " but that was it.

Smirked at " Crocodile Dunphy " but that was it.

The whole episode was pretty much just a tourist advertisement worked into a TV show. It's like Australia paid them to try get tourists to come to over.

The Crocodile Dunphy was hilarious though.

A very Brady episode

Which is exactly what happened.Did you not notice the obvious plug for QANTAS by showing the plane for no real reason at all ?

QANTAS, yes.

 

[akkaps]

It's now Qantas, they dropped the acronym. #stupididea

 

[mandy]

I didn't mind the episode.

I think some of you may be forgetting that we're not actually their target audience. The Yanks are. And they probably lapped up all those stereo types. That's who the majority think we are.


So what. It was still quite funny.

 

[Catfish Alley]

Yeah, over here they filled the commercials with plenty of Qantas and Australia Tourism ads.

 

[Rod Stroker]

That was terribad. The only bit I laughed at was Gloria pronouncing Vegemite in Spanish

The Herald-Sun doing their usual beat-up story over the wild dog taking Claire's lap-top scene

Newsflash Hun : Comedians have been doing the gag for years,as have other TV shows.Remember about 20 years ago Elaine in Seinfeld at a dinner party saying "Maybe the Dingo has got him "[refering to some womens partner]
Bart also did it in The Simpsons Australian episode,which is probably 20 years ago.

 

[peternorth]

typical media up in arms about someone taking the piss out of straya.

 

[JackNah_8]

and getting hit by a tram in Melbourne...another Australian thing??

Dammit ... that's gonna stick. Just like Cham-ell-e-on from HIMYM.

 

[Amazing Racer]

I didn't mind it - I skipped the 'special' before hand, all it was going to do was have plenty of clips of the episode itself and ruin it.

Would have liked a few more clips with Luke and Manny - it just seemed quite short to be honest. But it was perfect for the US market, so that is all that matters

 

[eddiesmith]

Must agree with a few comments they are really going downhill, only moment I really laughed was Phil getting punched by the Kangaroo even though it was predictable

I watched the special afterwards, it pretty much ran through most of the episode so would be pointless to watch beforehand

 

[Lance Uppercut]

It was very meh, but it was better than I thought it would be. My favourite line was Alex saying "seems like a missed opportunity" when Claire didn't say "A dingo stole my baby" - I thought that was very meta and well done, made me laugh.

Also liked Gloria pronouncing vegemite

 

[akkaps]

The Australia episode is not coming up on my TenPlay app. Is anyone else having this problem?

 

[NSWCROW]

Nooooobody doesss it betterrrrr

 

[benji2]

I'm guessing most people saw this ep a month ago but: that was much more like it! Stephen Merchant was great.

 

[akkaps]

I liked the later episode more today.

Haley (playing scrabble): Why are there so many 'I' 's on my rack?

Ah the Vegas ep was on tonight.That was hilarious and Merchant was perfect in that role.

Probably the best ep of this season. It's been an average season in general though, nowhere near enough Dylan.
I don't know if it's got legs for another season...

It easily does. It's still rates as the #1 Wednesday night show by a fair margin.
