mostly superficial, adolescent humor

This show is an attempt at a comedic look at last week's news in Australia. It's based on one of those high-paced morning radio formats, where everything is delivered at very fast pace in small bites. If you like your jokes to be delivered fast in large quantities, then you'll enjoy the show. Some of the segments can be genuinely funny (they do quizzes like 'supermarket own brand or sports celebrity?' -or a variant thereof- that can bring a smile or two), but the show is let down by the editorial choice to pander too much to tabloid/reality TV for cross-promotion purposes -love island is too much of a cheap target for genuinely funny one-liners. It's watchable, and as I said funny at times, but it lacks the sophistication and ironic de-construction carried by 'Mad as Hell' and 'The Weekly' (both on the ABC). The NZ version is a carbon copy. 7/10
