Comedy Inc.

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.

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 an underrated, true comedic gem from Down Under. To use a cliché, there really is (was) nothing quite like it. It features a wide range of subject fare, including parodies of contemporary television, historic spoofery, and frequently, highly inventive twists on daily life.

Many of the premises have hilariously unexpected payoffs. The writing is some of the best in recent years, and the cast and performances are superb. I can't praise this enough - it really sets a unique and clever bar for modern comedy.

From quick blackouts to full sketch pieces, there is much on offer here. If you are a comedy connoisseur who appreciates a wide range of wit and unique angles, this should hit the mark more often than not. Highly recommended.

This load of rubbish is the worst sketch comedy ever. I've watched it 3 times now, in the hope of coming across at least 1 funny sketch, but the show has continually failed to make me laugh or even smile. Complete crap.

Stupid sketches about the most obvious subject matter. Yeah, lets make jokes about Michael Jackson.. we all know he's weird. Idiots.

All these people should try a different line of work, something unrelated to comedy. Leave the funny stuff to the real talent, like Shaun Micallef.

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!
