>tfw Mad as Hell is on tv

Is this the best show on Aus television?
>>
YES. yes it is.
I mean it's less smug and more self-effacing than Mediawatch.

No

This shit is even preachier than John Oliver.

As an Australian I find it quite jarring when there's an Australian in an American show (accent really sticks out).

When it's all Australian accents, it's not so bad.

Most of them are intentionally exaggerated, so it can be annoying. I guess it's so that Americans can understand that the character is Australia.
>>

That segment lost me, to be honest. I didn't pay enough attention to the set up.

Adam Hills is actually the funniest and most talented stand up comedian, when he actually does stand up comedy. Its a shame that he doesn't actually do comedy but just does this political talk show instead, if he did actual comedy, he'd be hilarious. My dad met him once, said he's a really nice person.

That was actually one of the funniest things about living in America for a while.

I met quite a few Australians who had lived there for years and years, but their accent was much stronger than mine (or many Australians I know - rural and not)
>>
>>71761648
I've seen the show, neither does Adam Hills.
>>
I wasn't so sure about Mad as Hell, but I think it benefits from the fact that they're not trying to be journalists or political commentators like The Daily Show or The Last Leg or any other crap like that on TV right now.
It's comedy that pokes fun at politics but knows better than to try and be self-righteous about it.

Your country doesn't matter.
>>
>>71758409
didn't this fuck create the project and is responsible for everything in it.

Yeah a good comedian crafts a personality that can be teeter in and out of independent perspectives with ease, but that doesn't mean impartiality can't be feigned, he may just be better at including the progressive shit because he hates bouncing around the networks so often.

I don't think you can accept the progressive SJW as a conservative without showing disdain for the world they want to create, so he either hides it better than anyone ever and uses it for motivation or isn't a conservative, just a self-interested populist.

The Panel is produced by Roving Enterprises which is Rove McManus.

it's utterly terrible.
why does he turn to a character actor every 2 minutes, their jokes never land and they just awkwardly sit there until he moves on to the next thing.

Do you really think he'd be struggling to have a show on the ABC if he created The Project? Idiot.

The Panel was Working Dog.
The Project is Rove "punchable face" McManus.

I haven't watched Australian TV in yonls

Is it lefty bullshit like 90% of everything on tv these days?

I can handle "Le Middle Ground" shows but almost everything on tv is leftwing propaganda

Media watch is only good because the presenter is so smug. Otherwise it'd be a pretty dry news show.
