    This is my reaction to The Shaun Micallef Programme - Feminism
    In this video I react to Australian comedy from Australian comedy sketch show The Shaun Micallef Programme that is about Feminism where he invites a feminist guest on and comedy ensues.

    Shaun is probably the King of absurdist comedy in Australia. From his characters on Full Frontal/Fast Forward like Milo Kerrigan, Fabio (the Most Beautiful Man in The Cosmos), and David McGahan, to the various incarnations of The Micallef P(r)ogram(me)/Micallef Tonight/Newstopia/, to Mad as Hell. Each and every one was capable of sending the viewer into stitches or utter confusion. Even all these years later I can't watch a Milo sketch without tears running down my cheeks.
    At one point Channel Nine poached him, but apparently had no idea what they were buying other than the fact he was popular. The show got off to a typically bizarre start (Shaun conducting a long-winded introduction to his first guest, then ending the interview almost immediately since he'd covered everything there was to talk about) and then was spectacularly canned after some unintended foreshadowing.

    He has so many great comedy sketches from over the years. I think my favourites from back in the day were a short sketch series he had called “Roger Explosion”. He was playing a character called David McGahan (one of his long running characters) who had an acting past as Roger Explosion (a 007 type character).

      It’s a great sketch that I’d never seen; must of been on a commercial station. But I wouldn’t get too worried by comments - it’s very clear that people who search out affirmation of their idk, cultural uniqueness? have a kind of tabloid view of the world. I’m just glad that our Scots host has found some treasure amongst the trash he’s usually asked to review.

      Actually it was called The Micallef Program for the first series, then in the first episode of the second series Shaun noted that people had written letters to the ABC complaining about the US spelling of "program", so the second series was named The Micallef Program(me), and then in the third series he renamed it to The Micallef Pogram as a reference to the first two name changes. It's convention now to refer to the show as The Micallef P(r)ogram(me) when talking about the series as a whole.

    You would probably also like “Shaun Micallef Aboriginal Sketch”. That’s from the Australian sketch show Full Frontal and not from The Micallef Progamme, so I don’t know if you’ll want to react to that one or not. It is the. same sort of humour.
