You must be fun at parties!
Catch up son I am on the Spazz Cat bandwagon that there is nothing good on FTA. So the tv does not have a STB installed or an aerial plugged in anymore.

ABC is a taxpayer black hole, the SBS is tbh the only decent channel and 7,9,10 are weighed down by laws that dictate they must have a set percentage of locally produced content but viewerships being down due to streaming platforms means the days of locally produced shows like seachange, water rats, blue heelers, country practice etc etc are over.

So we get left with game show saturation and reality tv spam as they are cheap to produce. Let’s face it The Block has gone on about 5 seasons too long and as a perfect illustration The Weakest Link (without the original host) returning is a horrible idea, but gets approved as again it is local, and cheap to produce in the era of reduced revenue.
 
The worst. My kids got into Fuller House for a while.
A reboot that was somehow worse.

I never saw the reboot - thinking it was on Stan or Netflix or one of those other streaming services so I missed it (not upset)

And yet there's no indication that the Kraft Walker Cheese Co had anything to do with Edward Coon or used his method of maturing cheese. If Edward Coon was actually somehow involved with the cheese company or has some impact on their product, then yeah keep the name, but there's no link so I've still no issues with the name change
That’s a flimsy justification at best.
A brand was changed because of someone’s surname.
 
The best part is reading Obama’s statements on immigration, and what needs to be enforced at the border. It was reasoned, sensible, and firm. Exactly what an elected leader should say. Trump said more or less the same thing, and he was a monster.



Actually admitted going after Trump was pure propaganda to get rid of him. Amazing that they actually admit making most of it up, and most americans seem fine with being lied to. We are entering a dangerous time.

Admittedly, it would have been hard for the original host of the Aus Weakest Link to return - though they surely could have found a better host than Magda as she just seems too nice for that show

Dude I don't watch any of it, my TV antennae isn't even hooked up. I just find the anger amusing.

The ABC is for the most part fine though.

Magda was an awful choice. She’s already copping a media bashing for her sjw views atm. She is becoming so unlikeable that hardly anyone will tune in. I can see the weakest link lasting about a month.

Yep. They get to make their Aus quota on the cheap.

Haha good. Not funny.
I would of booed the f**k outta Joey from Full House.
That c**t makes me cringe.

Trust me, Tim Allen was worse. But yeah Joey sucked too.

Dunno why they had them on, probably had some time to fill. All the music acts were amazing tho.

One day I’ll run for office on a kill off the ABC platform. You’ll see.

I’d get it up tbh. Just promise that all taxpayers receive the money saved as a new tax break at tax return time.

Law number 2: All hyphenated names are ineligible for public office. That’s just so I can white ant Hanson-Young.

Maybe rangas being rounded up and housed on norfolk island as their own colony will be law 3.

I plan to make us better, not worse.

Also fun fact. But You oughta know by Alanis Morissette is about Joey from Full House.
 
Art Vandelay_ what is really sh*t on the ABC is The Drum.
One day of reading the tv guide was grim reading. Really think the best program on each channel was the news bulletin.
