Adrift in a Sea of Mediocrity
It genuinely dampens my spirits to see that shows such as The Wedge (read a breif synopsis) can make it onto prime time television. It boggles my mind as to how things like this get approved, funded and produced, and it boggles even further when people (and I use the term loosely) actually like it. I would hazard a guess these are the same 'people' who would find Little Britain offensive and not funny. The same people whom have said to me "Well if you think you could do better then why aren't you?" You know the type of people I'm talking about. I like to refer to them as 'arseholes'.
Stop lowering the bar for all of us, you fucking ruiners of everything that is good.

Agreed.
It is almost like the arseclowns who write the Wedge were at home one night watching Kath and Kym and said "Hey, this seems pretty popular...why don't we jump in on this action." and henceforth spewed forward some of the worst TV since that game show that Red Symons hosted (Shafted). It is a very poor imitation of Kath and Kym at best.
As for teh arseholes that watch it, they are also the same people that give a toss about any or all of the following:
1. Nicole Kidman getting married to floppy haired country singer
2. Princess Mary of Denmark...the woman who gave hope to pub slappers everywhere that one day your dreams can come true
3. Sunrise watchers.
Thing is, they can't be told, ignorance is obviously a close associate of deafness
I couldn't have put it better myself. I have no time for Nicole Kidman and I'm a little disappointed in Keith to tell you the truth. I have to pull you up on your second point though-I think the official name for Princess AMry is OUR princess Mary. As forSunrise, well, I mean, who would willingly watch it when Sharyn Ghidella is on channel 9?
Briz 31 - Now THAT's some funny shit.
Hah, Briz 31 - Crazy Crosswords should do a reunion series! Or team up with the guys from "Home Butchery" and do a stage show...
Yes I'm a little surprised 'Fantasy World Cup' hasn't made it back on air. Also, who could forget the non-stop entertainment of Karoake Kangaroo (at least I think that's what it was called).
I find The Wedge as funny in its way as Little Britain (particularly towards the end of the last series when lets face it they had hit the wall), nowhere near as funny as the Fast Show, the Goodies, the League of Gentlemen or Monty Python. Comparing a sketch comedy show (the Wedge) to a "character" comedy (Kath and Kim) is a bit like comparing poodles to rottwielers same sort of thing...but not really, you Sir reek of cultural cringe you bogan thinly lacquered with "I went to a conservatrois" LA DE DAH ( PS love the page) (Girl)
