Comedy Inc.

Only an Aussie like the guy who posted the last comment would be so down on a show from his own country that's as good as this. There's a reason it's so darn popular, bozo - that's because it rocks.

This is easily the best Australian sketch comedy show in a long time. I wasn't too keen on the first couple of series of 'Comedy Inc', but in a later time of 10.30pm, its totally come into its own.

'Ernest the engine car' and 'Matt and Bray' are some of the funniest, best performed/voice, best written things I've ever seen on television from anywhere. Not to get too carried away, but this is one Australian comedy show that's truly world class. I've read it's coming back in 2006 and I can't wait!

Austalia again tries really hard to make a good sketch comedy but still does not make it.

Years ago with fast forward and full frontal, they were funny. But now with sketch show comedies as comedy inc, skit house and big bite have really gone downhill. skit house and big bite both had only 1 or 2 good sketches but the rest was pathetic. Comedy inc was crap all together. I am glad skit house and big bite are not on anymore and have learnt their lesson that they are not funny.

I decided to watch the late shift because nothing else was on. After 10 mins of it, i could not stand it anymore. The jokes are stupid, not funny at all, sometimes they go over the top on the jokes and do not know when to stop. it just drags on and on and on. Also really bad impersonations of celebrities.

If you want Aussie shows with funny humor, watch shows with shawn micallef in it.

The writers of these Aussie sketch shows should be fired or should learn from the British on how their sketch shows are really funny such as "the sketch show" "deadringers" "the fast show" etc.

I can't believe the last person on here posted a review of this show rubbishing it. Comedy Inc is easily (only being threatened by Welcher and Welcher) the best Australian comedy show of 2003.

Finally, six years after Full Frontal ended and was replaced with the less clever humour (and probably why it was cancelled after one season) of Totally Full Frontal, we finally have a sketch comedy show not afraid to parody actual people, places, products and other television shows. The show has been cleverly written and acted, not being afraid to push the public opinion of the Australian public forward into the spotlight (the Anti-Terrorism p**s-takes, Anti-Iraq war sentiment) which shows like Skithouse have avoided.

Not only does this writing allow for many jokes to remain subtle and keep coming back to you, it allows for easy direction and acting which shows like Skithouse obviously lack. Although now slowly coming to the end of a season and running out of new ideas, it still remains far in front on other shows for being consistently funny.

I can't wait for the DVD to come out. 8/10.

All the people I know who love watching Aussie comedy on TV agree there are only two things worth watching at the moment - Chris Lilley's 'We Can Be Heroes' and this sketch show, which is frankly even funnier than 'Heroes'.

This show has lasted long enough on air (now in its 3rd series) to finally become a fantastic show. Comedy fans seem to agree series 1 was one of the absolute worst things ever on Aussie comedy television. Series 2 was a lot better but still patchy, which is pretty surprising given it was only about 10 episodes long.

Finally, they've got it right in this series. Everything about it has improved, the acting and the production quality, but most importantly the writing. It's just so consistently well written and clever I sometimes can't believe it, especially when the series is so long. I loved 'Fast Forward' and some of the other commercial station comedy shows, but even though some of them had great casts and stars like Shaun Micallef ('Full Frontal' for example), none of them had writing as good as this. My favourite would have to be 'Ernest the Engine Car', which is one of the most scandalously funny things I've ever seen on any TV show, but there's plenty of other great stuff besides.

Hope there's a DVD of this series soon, can't wait for it.

This show is simply unfunny. In the 6-month-ish period it has been running for, there has been only one slightly funny sketch - ONE I tell you.

When I first saw it advertised on TV, I was looking forward to it, but when I first sat down to watch it, the first sketch went past, the second, the third, the fourth, the fifth, etc........................., and afterwards, I thought to myself, "Have I Missed Something?".

This show which claims to be a "comedy" - watch it if you must, but if not just read a book when it comes to Wednesday night.
