- In 1988, a group of unknown comedians burst onto the TV scene with a show that revolutionised Australian television - The Comedy Company. Overnight it became the highest rating series of the year. The characters - Kylie Mole, Con the Fruiterer, and Colin Carpenter became household names. The show became compulsory Sunday night viewing.
Now, for the first time this DVD presents a collection of their greatest sketches in their original form: uncut and uncensored. There's Kylie, Con, Colin, The Language of Football, Uncle Arthur, Jophasine, and many more. Also included are some scenes that have never been broadcast.

Comedy Company was an Australian institution. Everyone would watch with their families and everyone would be quoting the jokes at school the next day. Thanks for the share.
Spot on, you heard imitations and quotes next day at school. I was a bit like "Kylie" when I was in high school back then lol.
The original Australian meme!😂😂 She goes, she goes, she goes, she just goes! Spitting blood! 😂😂
Best show growing up in the 80s loved it
80s? bruz we was watching this in the 90s
We need more of this when comedy was fun
When Australia was at peace with itself and happy go lucky...
I’m so old, I remember waiting all week for a new episode. Thanks for the memories 💜🇦🇺
As a kid born in 1980, this means so much! Thankyou 🤘🤩🤘🇦🇺🦘🇦🇺
Same as me
84 model myself, remember straight home from school hide my uneaten lunch and naughty boy notes then to my black and white TV, turn the dial to find ABC for monkey magic then wait for sister and mum to finish watching Neighbours and home and away worst hr of my life, then comedy central, later on Fast forward and full Frontal. Eric banere played Pete names Pete sweet want a VB him and Carl was the best and kylie mole was funny, she knows she knows she goes she goes Australian comedy is far more witty and shit stirring. Nothing was off limits. Im autistic and half the characters was mentally challenged in same way, and the word retard was ues all the time, it was funny i thought im a retard and proud, but the word spastic is horrible im retarded not stupid, now Americans has stuffed up our layed back larrikin way of life coz they racists, country investors and backward gun crazy wanks. Aussies are beer drinking pub fighting larrikins. Pub fights was how i made friends, being autistic making friends is hard but making enemies is easy, my no sense of social Queues or having no feelings like norms means i say shit the offence but its 100% truthful people dont like the truth, where i can't lie takes to much time to think and remember what shit was said. Oh yer and America Australian 80's 90's music trumps you're music and its still better then your new stuff. Only thing America is good for is movies and for the rest of the world to watch and laugh and see what not to do
Same
Bloody oath 🤙🇦🇺
👍.

Colin Carpenter was such a classic…still funny. Also loved Kylie Mole 😂
OMG🤣 Coln. It's shameful we don't have this kind of comedy on air these days.
I still say "it wasnt me... it was Dolly!" And no-one has a clue what Im on about. 😂
Thanks for the trip down memory lane
I still say it wasn't me it was the back youm cleana
This was screened over here in NZ ...it brings back my youth!
Priceless. These guys were sooo talented. Loved it. Loved Con the fruiterer.."ahh couple of days".
Dussen matta!
Buderful
😂❤ good memories, thankyou for this compilation. I can't believe we moved to Australia 37 years ago 🇵🇱🇦🇺🌏🐨
Thank you for sharing these❤🇦🇺 nothing will compare to the Australian tv and lifestyle alot of us remember from the 80s and 90s this is a gem you have created i really appreciate it thank you so much ❤
This show was so well done. So hilarious. I loved this show when I was a kid.
Thank you so much for uploading these videos 🥰 such a great trip down memory lane. A great show to watch with the whole family and when I was a kid I always look forward to the Con the Fruiterer and Uncle Arthur segments❤❤❤🤣❤❤
Still got Mark Mitchell's autograph. We were on the same plane going to Tasmania.My husband and I were visiting my sister.Was Awesome to see Mark Mitchell ,and He kindly signed a paper which I've kept.Comedy Company all the rage at that time.❤
Who can go past the iconic Con the Fruiterer, and Col'n.
Holy shit this takes me back! This, Fast Forward and Full Frontal was hilarious to me as a kid. Such quality shows.
It's so awesome to see Glen Robbins in blackface too.
@@oinkooink if you choose not to be offended by something it ceases to be offensive. Do you think the intent was to be racist or to offend people, or do you think it was a skit everyone sat around and discussed and did it to be funny? Is it offensive when Chris Rock tells a joke involving whites? No. What about when Chris Rock tells a black joke? Nope, because he’s black. But it’s offensive when a white person makes a black joke or does blackface. Grow up and laugh at an obvious joke.
I was born to enjoy the comedy just a decade earlier in the form of HOGES...
And you can see the influences of Paul Hogan in the Comedy Company as well... ❤❤❤
Classic! Loved it. When tv was worth watching
Excellent way to spend the next hour or so
45:14 He barely stifled that laugh after the line about _"kissing a cold, wet, unconscious woman"_ was _"just like being married"_
Thank you for this!!! Subscribed!!! May the 1980's TV lore never die.
Funny how I can now understand and appreciate how clever these skits still are now as an adult. I was only a tiny kid when this was on.
I got a good laugh from this old classic comedy 🤣
Kym Gyngell, you legend. so damn funny!
I remember seeing the very first episode of The Comedy Company when it aired on TV - February 16, 1988. Ideal Sunday evening viewing.
Mary-Anne Fahey's street-smart, school-hating Kylie Mole character made "bogan" a more common and popular slang term.
The final episode aired November 11, 1990. Fond memories of good, clean sketch comedy - something that no longer exists today.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣👌❤️I forgot how funny this show was! Thanks for sharing it🤗
Take me back 🥺
It knocked 60 minutes off the number 1 since 1979.
oh my i forgot i used to watch this all the time, very talented bunch
Kids today will never understand uncensorshipped media 😂 damn, i miss these days....
Glenn, Kym, Ian, Mark, Russell and crew are Australias best.
Classic stuff, our thanks for uploading!
Jesus, 1988??? Man I loved this show
Funny then,funny now❤😂
Stands the test of time. Quality Comedy 😊😅😂
I'll never forget being a lad of the 80's, getting a job at Fairfax in the mid 2000's and watching a Sexual Harrasment traing video that starred no other than Mark Mitchell as the VICTIM of an overly amourous Greek woman that was played DEADLY serious
I laughed my fuckin head off (was the only one in the group) that Con the Fruiterer was resigened to such a fate
Oh wow 🇦🇺♥️thank you love it
Thank you 😁👍👍
Agape is Greek for fatherly love. I didn’t know that.until a Greek lady told me 5 years ago. When he says it, it sounds like ugupee, but it’s pronounced agapay. So cooooool .😄
Used to love this show. Every wednesday nite i vaguely remember?
Yes, definitely mid week TV.
When we were alll not afraid to take the Mick out of each other and ourselves in the name of comedy, without fear of woke retribution....
Took the Mickey. Apart from the black face and Greek stereotyping, it was all innocent. Australia is a racist country.
Yeah, nah mate. Don't believe we ever stopped. That woke shit is American.
Holds up surprisingly well - one or two flat spots but overall pretty good. Progressive for its time and it shows.
Classic Aussie comedy!
FANTASTIC 😂❤
Omg Rhula , Thula , Shula …. and Agafe 😂🤣😃😂🤣😂🤣,
This is engraved in my brain 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Except you spell them all wrong lol.
One of my favorites on TV theses days is home and away
Wonderful advice!
And thank you for helping me realise how I have been in my feminine.
I love how you bring awareness, thank you 🙏💖
this is gold way better than the crap now
I met Kim gyngell in Melbourne when I was waiting for a tram 🚊 very very nice bloke
Dial a dinos.. wow the memories.
38:03 That wolf-whistle didn't even distract her 😅
Some one will get triggerd
Great then and great now
Oh hell yeah. Thank you for sharing this ya legend 🤗
Sad to see Russell Gilbert post stroke, such a great bloke who only wanted to make people laugh
Preface: huge fan hilarious aussie talent miss it thank you.
Not to be woe is me or anything but The Comedy Company & Fast Forward (USA's "In living colour" also) were hugely influential to my funny personality as they were a security blanket of escapism & source of inspiration for making people laugh aka the class clown, in a very fkd up childhood to be frank & crass, sorry. These simple sketch Comedy shows & comedians in general have performed a community service for decades that most may never be aware of except the comedians.. well most of them. The art of making people laugh is a double edge sword. Thanks for this nostalgic hit.
I didn't expect to see Kel here lol. TIL Kel knight was already a big star before starring in Kath & Kim. Anyway, I'm glad to discover more about Aussie comedies.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 awesome 💯😎.. one love
Fast forward was on around the same time. Uncle Arthur etc
That was real comedy not the crap that tries to pass itself off as comedy today.
The old $20 note...
😂😂😂😂 hahaha daggy dancing hilarious.
Kylie….. he goes he goes 😂
I met Russell Gilbert at sexpo in Melbourne i even asked him if he still knows how to do the Craig face expression and he still has gotten that I like it towards myself altogether there 😂 good old gilbo
Haha Sexpo! I went to that in Perth and accidentally left my new dildo on the train 😅The train security were nice enough to track me down and give my bag of goodies back with much laughter doing so 😂😂😂
Craig was so funny.. he was one of the best characters 😂
let the good times roll.!
glorious time for telly..
✌🏻🌏🇦🇺🤘🏻
A time BEFORE PEOPLE GoT OFFENDED over a joke...
Mr carpenter😅😅
A great show
I wonder what happened to some of them, kym gngell, russle gilbert, ian mc fadjen..
The first one with the touring cars 😂
Racing at Sandown in 1988.
Fabulous! Where are they now??
So true
Ah classic Aussie comedy
Wonderful memories of good old innocent Ozzie humour with also the likes of Paul Hogan prior to the comedy company, before the insanity of political correctness of profound proportions has helped kill such good talent and entertainment.
Wow Kel & Brett ❤they both great 👍
27:54 This show was ahead of its time. This is how knowledgeable people are today in the American main stream media and funny enough, the Australia's main stream media follow the same garbage.
0:17 I still swear the voice over says "Ian McFaggen" in the intro. Or am I consistently mis-hearing it ?
Good old Colin taste like a chocolate milkshake only crunchy so good 😂😂😂😂😂
Our most colourful era...
If only buying cheap potatoes was as simple as this in 2024
When comedy was just that, beofre the highly offended were born.
And the global craziness of Woke and cancel culture too over . Good clean comedy .
And before Sky News and general Murdoch media poisoned the minds of boomers with right wing propoganda terms like "woke" and "cancel culture"
Grabbing a gun on the way to church in 2024, if you met the comedy company at the entrance to the car park. What would you do?
Aussie comedy gold
I love Mark Mitchell Aka Mr Gribble
😂😂😂
Miss the Dino's pizza
So funny
lol weird i knew this was aussie soon as i saw the thumbnail.. but ive never even heard of the show 👀
New Zealand has the best pies
I miss old cheap tv shows
The Late Show - D.A.A.S - Fast Forward - Comedy Company
27:52
Many today would be offended.... Not the Black community, but those that believe their fighting the fight.,..
( Looking at you Harry Connick )
This isnt offensive.... Its the offended that have made it so..
Balance is not an outcome when everything is put on the side of a fence.
I think this was 3, Full Frontal was 2 and the Late Show was 1
Fast forward 😂
Jane from neighbours
Comedy Company was better in its early years. Around 1986.
This was always a great show to watch wish they had more shows like this but a lot of TV shows aren't as good as the shows like this one they don't make them as good theses days 😂😂😂 TV is getting so lamo theses days and boring hardly seems worth watching tv theses days
when we had a laugh
Why don’t they just replay these!!! I’m sick of watching American comedies that host aren’t funny
