Some Aussie tv is good. Comparing the best shows like ‘GoT’ from HBO and ‘Black Mirror’ from Netflix to the run of the mill network TV isn’t really a fair comparison. Network TV shows in the US don’t even fair well what with neverending ‘Simpsons’ and dross like ‘The Orville’.

I find 7, 9 and 10 Australian tv shows to be nothing but dramas (I hate relationship dramas as the sole focus for a show) or terrible reality tv nonsense, who knows how much of them are scripted as well.

I found “Offspring” to be an enjoyable and very quirky show.

I always get Gleeson mixed up with Gleisner.

Neither of them seem to be adept at their chosen field of ‘comedy’.

When i heard that Gleeson had won the Gold Logie, i first thought it was an ‘irony’ thing, a sort of throwback to when Garry McDonald’s character of Norman Gunstron achieved his aim of demonstrating that any damn fool could win a Gold Logie, as long as he pushed the buttons in the right order.

But, there’s a difference: McDonald needed real talent to portray Gunston as being as inept and talentless as he was made out to be.

Gleeson doesn’t even have to try hard to demonstrate similar qualities.

PRIME MINISTER ANNOUNCES ROYAL COMMISSION INTO HOW THE FUCK THE ABC WON SO MANY AWARDS AT LOGIES

Senior Government Ministers were privately seething last night as a multitude of awards went to ABC shows and personalities. An entertainment industry spokesperson admitted that the wins had taken everyone completely by surprise.

“The Logies used to be about seedy old blokes like Daryl Somers, Bert Moonface Newton or Alf from Home and Away picking up the gold, with a coked up teenager from Home and Away or Neighbours picking up best young talent. Occasionally you might see the ABC pick up a nomination for best rural documentary or some shit like that, but we would normally just hand them out during the ad breaks so nobody would notice.

Back in the day, most of the voting was done by 14 year old girls as well. These days, kids are so busy on YouTube and Netflix, most of them wouldn’t even know what free to air tv is, let alone how the TV Week voting process works. As a result, the voting system now gets rorted by middle aged tea drinkers who make their own compost and cut the plastic rings of the top of milk bottles so they don’t get stuck round the necks of penguins. It’s a bloody disgrace.”

Communications Minister Mitch Fifield is known to be considering the terms of reference for the Royal Commission including the possible banning of beards from free to air television under anti terrorism laws, TV Week articles and voting guides to be included in NAPLAN testing, ABC Kids to screen edited highlights of Married at First Sight and Giggle and Hoot to feature a new puppet called Senior Constable Rogerson the Friendly Federal Police Agent.
