Funniest TV show in a long time.

It might take a bit to get used to the Australian accents, but tough it out. The show is heeelarious.

2. It's shot as a reality show.
If I had to compare it to anything, I'd say it's a white trash version of Absolutely Fabulous.

7. I remember that. An Aussie "Sanford and Son."
My almost-ex and I used to recite lines from that show. I loved it.

9. The mother was a fantastic character
and brilliantly portrayed. There was a fine line between her being crafty, and her being spacey - and often you didn't know on what side of that line she was. (my guess was usually crafty, though...) :D

14. I've forgotten the line but there was one episode
where the son was in trouble over something, and the mother advised him to just pretend he didn't know what was going on and that he had forgotten where he was, and that everyone would believe him and do what he asked them to do, and there was a moment's silence as mom realized she had said too much and son realized what she was saying, and then mom slipped back into the spacey character and said something crazy. I used to use that last line all the time. Now I can't remember it.

10. We quote lines all the time.
"Aww...that's nice"

"Kimmie...look at me...look at meeeeh. Now I've got one word to say to you..."

3. I totally disagree, 1000%.
Lucky Louie, on HBO, is the funniest TV show in a long time.

4. I totally disagree 1001%.
Have you seen the comic genious of Kath and Kim? One of my favorite scenes has Kath talking about how she can't elope with her fiancee while holding a canteloupe!

6. I totally disagree, 1002%.
My favorite Lucky Louie scene is where Kim has her first real orgasm, at age 37.

15. Nope.
I do not hear "fuck," "motherfucker," "cocksucker," or "cunt" on that lame show to which you refer.

16. That Almost Happened to Ali G
He was at an NRA convention I think and he kept asking this redneck if he was gay. After Ali G had asked him about three times, the redneck got very agitated and told Ali that if he asked him that question one more time that he was going to kick his ass. Ali G really knows how to push all the right buttons. Did you see his interview with Newt Gingrich? Now that was hilarious.
