When will people learn?

Apparantly nothing is sacred this time..

Wasn't that what they said last time?? Makes ****house look good

How wicked did the adverts look for it! When does it start?

 

[Bombers_Forever]

It looks pretty good- unlike Skithouse, this show is actually amusing.

I'm with you, what a black eye on Australian 'comedy'.

It's a blight on this country that enough people watched this crap to justify a second series.

 

[benny's buddy]

Skithouse craps all over this show. That bald bloke had his turn when Full Frontal was dying and that other bloke should've slipped away quietly when Hey Dad finished.

 

[The Passenger]

both skithouse and comedy inc. are just pathetic attempts at humour.

Full Frontal and Fast Forward were good. These shows just don't even get near the quality.

I thought this show got cancelled? Both shows arent great but every show skithouse does have a very funny skit. The best ones are

- The skit about that 'theres something about mirium show' with the fat dude saying he was a man.
- The one with delta goodrem and the ugly dude saying 'without your glasses your really beautiful'
- The one were the footy player does his cruciate and they chuck him in the bin

and the funniest one ever

- The orange haired people skits. They were ****ers.

At the end of the day however no sketch show compares with the Sketch Show. FUNNIEST.SHOW.EVER. I saw Lee Mack (from the show) when he came down for the comedy festival. Funniest night of my life.

I like their impersonations where they dont bother with the costume or make up department. Pretty stupid really.

Terrible, it's one of the worst shows ever created

While not being an ER fan it is actuall a well made and thoughtful show which has been successful for several years and has spawned many great actors

On the other hand we have a show created in what looks to be the alleys and basements at Channel 9 Melbourne where people who are simply not good enough to get on other programs or have been in other Australia failures (the last series of "hey dad" and "Full Frontal" when it had lost it completely) mimmicking people who they would probably cream over when they met in the street.

A perfect example I saw when watching the first episode of this show was Ben from Hey Dad (why did he live there again???) taking off Lleyton Hewitt and when asked why he had such a bad temper he replied with "I'm not just not very good". Mmmm picking on Lleyton Hewitt and you bag him his ability... I couldn't possibly think of anything to bag Lleyton about.

I reckon its a great show. I love the "Good morning Ozzie" and Noofa Murphy skits.

 

[Inside50]

SKit House is alrite for a watch if your really bored and just want something to watch. I cant remember comedy Inc but from what ive heard its pretty much the same. Both shows have nothing on the brilliance of tghe Sketch Show

 

[puddingfactor]

I prefer Skithouse.

It doesn't always work, but I have more respect for Skithouse because it doesn't rely entirely on sending up tv shows or films.

Comedy Inc seem to think that it's good enough to play dress ups and that's good enough to constitute comedy.

 

[-WWJD-]

They're Rove impersonation was brilliant.

Other than that, it sucked.

Was it Big Bite that did The Panel, that was awesome. Mannerisms spot on. And the way they did Kate was freakin' hilarious.

 

[Nic]

Which one has Extreme Darren???

 

[Portia]

The big bite was Extreme Darren. He was cool.

 

[Mog]

Channel 9 is only doing it so they have a comedy show. Because other networks have them. Maybe not right now, but you get what I mean.

 

[Bombers_Forever]

I thought some of it was funny last night (like the Sunrise and Today spin offs) but others fell really flat.

 

[Thrawn]

I thought the Sunrise one was perfect. That guy played a really good Kochie. Other than that...

 

[jikost]

Do they even know how to be subtle? Every sketch was just thrown straight in your face.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

What annoys me is they axe shows like The Micallef Show (which was very hit and miss but at least original) and bring back crappy Full Frontal and Fast Forward spin offs like this. I understand it's all about ratings but still.

They should just get the rights to show old replays of Full Frontal when Micallef and Bana were still around.

yes... i had a preview of the comedy channel a while back, and full frontal was sensational... i wasn't sure what it'd be like, cos i used to watch it as a kid, and thought the jokes may have been lame... but it had me laughing as much as it used to...

even if they show it daily after the late news, it would surely outrate all the other stations...

Er, the writers are catering for an AUSTRALIAN audience.

(Reminds me of Sir Humphrey Appleby: "But Minister, this is a BRITISH democracy).
