FTA-TV Aunty Donna’s Big Ol House of Fun (Netflix series)

[Red Black and Blue]

Nice to see this Melbourne born absurdist comedy troupe make good. Got some pretty big names making cameos with Ed Helms, Weird Al, Anthony Starr, Kristen Schaal, Jack Quaid showing their faces.

I want to support local talent but this looks truly awful.

It’s reviewing pretty well, but comedy is of course subjective. Will probably work with a young audience.

It was OK, and the fact the eps were 17-20 minutes made it easy viewing. Few laughs in there, but definitely a niche market.

Thought it was great tbh. Last 2 eps were a little weaker but still good overall.

Started watching aunty donna's last night. Enjoying it very much. Love absurdist comedy and the loose storylines interspersed with random sketches is great. Monty python/young ones/boosh kinda vibe. I think this may end up a bit of a cult classic if they don't run out of steam. Lost it when Homelander made an appearance.

Absolutely loved it. Definitely a love it or hate it kind of show tho

Loved the show, and big fan of Aunty Donna in general. Definitely could understand people not liking it, but almost all positive reviews coming in so far which is great.

Found it to be a bit hit and miss. There's some good stuffin there but there's also some pretty cringey stuff too.

Some of the skits go for far too long as well. Sometimes keeping it short and sharp is better.

I enjoyed the songs, the Family Feud skit and the Ellen skit.

Loved it when I was drunk. Hated it when I was hungover.

As someone who grew up on The Goodies, I've always been a fan of this sort of comedy.

Thought the same; started stronger. But I love these guys, you can tell other comedians do too. From Ed Helms producing to Tony Martin giving them a big rap on have You Been Paying Attention.
