    One of the funniest shows around...

    This show is absolutely amazing.. it's slapstick comedy at it's best...

    This comedy duo is great both live and on TV and it's great to hear that there is going to be a series 3!!! Keep up the good work!!

    THE Funniest Show to hit the screens.

    What can I say? I laughed so hard I nearly Puked I really did. This show gives people the chance to see how good Australian Comedy can be. The fact that the ABC happen to have this means 30 minutes of uninterrupted laughs. Go Lano and Woodley!

    Fantastic!!

    Lano and Woodley rule! If you're a fan of physical comedy you HAVE to check these guys out. Too often you see a show labeled physical comedy that just isn't funny. In fact, apart from silent comedians like Buster Keaton, I could only say Mr. Bean was the only other physical comedian to make me laugh. Lano and Woodley are modern day geniuses. Their show is full of hilarious slapstick, outrageous stunts, and clever dialouge.

    I believe series one was slightly better, but everything they're in is hilarious. My personal favourite episodes are "The Wall" and "Star Search". You MUST check them out.

    Ten out of Ten!

    Funniest sitcom Australia has ever produced.

    A brilliant duo that brought a freshness to television that makes you think a sitcom has never been done before!

    Such inventive plots, characters so well-observed. These two 'adultescent' characters remind me of the worst aspects of my own personality. The dialogue is hilarious but is matched by the most astounding physical comedy I've ever seen (either of these guys are more than a match for Jim Carrey).

    I just found a tape of the show I hadn't seen in years - still as funny as hell! Should be recognised as a classic series in the "Fawlty Towers" league. Can't recommend it enough.

      Frank: You know, the actor guy! Oh, what is his name? See, the thing is... the thing is... the thing is that when I say his name, you'll go, 'YES! The actor guy, love him, adore him... ' But I can't think of his name. It's on the tip of my tongue. You know who I mean - he's got the hair... the eyes... a bit of a nose... and a mouth and it's all held together with... like a FACE!
