The Last Of The Australians ~ A great comedy from the mid 70's, was a scream! (Ch9)

 

[2 True Blues]

Nothing about being the last of the Australians is amusing to me NBB.....Bring back the true Aussies. They threw away the mould mate...!!!!

but on a serious note, no I never saw the show, might have to look out for it though....:thumn

 

[newtownbluebags]

It was an absolute classic.............Ted Cook was the main characters name!...it was like a 70's version of Kingswood Country but more intelligent than that!

Bob Hawke was even in it once ;-)

:lol:

Logans Run - The TV series not the movie..............

 

[Mad Dogg]

Firefly
Boomtown
Silverhawks (a kids cartoon - I don't remember anything that actually happened, but I know I hired the one video in town so many times it eventually stopped working. I also remember it having an awesome intro song)

Tru Calling is an interesting show that got cancelled before it's time.

There was only one problem with that show - Eliza Dusku (or however you spell her name). As hot as she may be, she isn't charismatic enough to hold together a show that revolves completely around her. She's a good back-up like she was on Buffy, but not leading actress material.

With a more natural actress, Tru Calling could definitely have worked.

Bring back "On the Buses"

HELL YEAH

 

[2 True Blues]

Can't believe the cult following that Firefly has. Thought I was the only one. :lol:

So far the shows i love which werent overly popular are:
Scrubs
Arrested development
John Doe
The Pretender
Sliders
Coupling (hilarious show which i recommend everyone watch!)

And thats all i can think of for the moment.

Not little known, but a very underrated show - in Australia at least - is Scrubs. The first 3 seasons are brilliant and leave it close to my favourite comedy series of all time.

Yet Channel 7 shows it at 11pm. Funny thing is I never watched it when it was originally on but rather discovered it when Channell 7 were showing it at 11AM during my Uni holidays. Great show.

I think season 4 was the best! I really enjoyed that one. I used to love the Arrested Developemnt/Scrubs double on monday nights!

 

[2 True Blues]

Might have to check out this Scrubs thing. have not seen it yet !!!
