Swift and Shift is one of those comedies you watch over and over again, and every time I watch it I laugh myself silly...The only downside is there wasn't a Season 3...
Brilliant comedy and the show will be missed....

This is a very boring and unfunny show with underdeveloped characters and really awful writing. I really hated it.
I laughed so hard during this series. This show has everything not allowed in the USA. Farting, insensitivity to women, handicapped, First Nation people, all ethnics, Muslims, gays, the overweight, little people, bosses, workers, police, municipal employees and customers... everyone equally! And everyone is incompetent. Almost hurtful to watch. All the damage! But the boss is avuncular and an alpha you can just follow along watching him slip and slide through every disastrous working day. All the characters own their idiosyncrasies and never disappoint and delight. Just plain unadulterated fun. Are You Being Served / Trailer Park Boys / 10 Items Or Less / IT Crowd combo.
Okay, we have most of the cast from Housos in another trashy comedy again that works, but in no way can match the sharp cutting humour of Houso's. Again, in the beautiful city of Sydney, one courier service is running riot, in sloppy delivery. Like Housos, most of the actors in this show are bl..dy terrible, (writer and director Fenech, actually one of the better ones, who actually can act) but are still funny, just no way near as funny as in Housos. They must band together as one big happy family, off set. I've got the chance to see a few episodes of this, and like Centrelink, this takes the p..s out of Amanda Doyle. It's hard to see her put herself through that constant humiliation. Just check out the Valentines episode. At least, she's getting paid. Another episode features a fat employer of Swift And Shift, conked out, boxed up, ready for removal, for some bike hauling Indians, as a lesson to em' for stealing a couple of Swifties' jobs. SAS, runs third place to Housos and Fat Pizza, but is still quite funny, and takes jabs at all kinds of things. Sydney lover I am too, when seeing shots of the Krispy Kreme Factory on Parramatta, I can't help but feel envious and hungry. Bast.rds.
Who says Australian shows are boring? I do, well... did. But then I watched this show and it's restored my faith in Australian television, I was never really a fan of Always Greener or Sea Change to be honest. But enough about that. Although Swift & Shift was a but short, only about 6 episodes, it is definitely worth it. It's full of... some would say "questionable" humour, but then again, what isn't these days? Even the classic show the Simpsons has strayed into some "questionable" jokes in past years. Every episode is chock'o'block full of gay jokes, fat jokes, midget jokes and the likes. But unlike other shows, this one quite surprisingly pulls it all off seamlessly and very very funnily!
In short this is a really terrible show, and that's what makes it fantastic!
8/10
