The Cheap Seats

Brilliant show. Hilarious hosts. Mel's a star. Tim's getting there. 10/10 will watch again.

If you like Cringe Australian comedy - You're in for a treat. Two 'Comedians' host a show looking back at the weeks events - with a horrible 1980's laugh track. The comedy's on par with 'Full House' circa 1987. Will be popular with dads over the age of 60. Absolutely dreadful.

If they swapped the awful New Zealander with one of the many great Aussie comedians this show may have a chance. It feels so rehearsed. The jokes are obviously pre written and rehearsed so the banter does not flow.

Quick, witty, funny. Some reviewers who give it 1 etc are pieces of .... Guess. Following formats such as HYBPA and a hundred English versions. But it's generally Aussie and funnier. Nothing really like HYBPA , as it isn't a quiz format. Nor based on the original santo, sam and Ed podcast ( for those in the know. ) whenever you see a few 1 star reviews, automatically add 2 stars to the rating. Because some people are whining pieces of....

Absolutely love this show. Chemistry between the two hosts is brilliant and rare on TV, feels like just natural pub banter between friends.

So so funny and I hope it sticks around!
