FTA-TV Housos

[Bodicifer]

Bloody brilliant 10pm Monday nights on SBS. Anyone watch it last night? Pretty raw and crude but bloody funny. Good to see Aussies being able to take the p15s out of themselves I reckon. Should be a really funny series, can't wait til next week.

Had some funny moments. Reminded me of pizza too much.

 

[dbcrow]

Liked it. Looking forward to more eps.

Yeah it's basically just Pizza with a different name, same people involved in it and the same style. Hardly anything groundbreaking or original and not really all that funny either.

let's have multiple threads for every show

 

[Magpiespower]

Excruciating.

Not quite bottom of the barrel.

Reckon Australian TV can still scrape out a helluva lot more crap just yet...

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

More of the same shit from Paul Fenech. He really is a one trick pony isn't he.

Not sure if it was in last night's episode because I missed it, but the scene where they have Trent from Punchy in is flipping hilarious!!!!

Ha ha ha...I've seen a short of that. It wasn't last night's episode. Bloody funny that part. If you watch it for what it is it's a pisser of a show.

Agreed. It's crap.

If you like this shit go and watch a season of Shameless and see how this kind of thing can be done really well, clever and funny with well drawn characters.

Housos is a low rent knock off.

Totally agree. Damn I didn't even pick up that it could be compared to shameless (albeit it a very poor copy).

I wonder how he gets the funding to make these shows? It makes us look like we do not have quality writers and we do. I mean, look at Wilfred, also low budget but brilliant. More scrutiny is needed before approving idiotic shows like this. He's getting approval on the back of the success of fat pizza (equally shit but probably not as annoying as it was his first show so we weren't bored to death of him).

Paul Fenech is crap and should move over and give that air space to someone with talent.

Massive fan of Shameless, haven't missed an episode, but it's apples and pears...Shameless aims to be a quality comedy whereas Housos is simply taking the piss and trying to make it as raw and silly as it can. If you watch it with a light heart and open mind it's pretty bloody funny. It's obviously nowhere near the quality of a Shameless but for what it is it's a pisser I reckon!

If that constitutes quality comedic viewing then I worry about the state of the Oz TV industry. What pointless drivel!

Have you seen the original Trent from Punchy videos?

 

[steveys]

Missed the past two episodes. Does anyone know any website out there that show repeats? Or should I take the show has gone to sh!t with the lack of discussion here?

[Hlebalicious]

A delightfully terrible show. You know its terrible but hang around for the ride anyway.

Its the same cast and material every series but it still raises a few laughs.
