Shaun Micallef is hands down the smartest & cleverest comedian in Australia. Bit of a coincidence.... I was also born to a Maltese father & Australian mother. Me & Shaun are like THAT (doing "fingers crossed" thing)
lol. I also want to let other commenters know that the episodes are still going strong, and doesn't look like Newstopia's going for an axe any time soon! Good on ya Shaun!
So glad he has the hit show my generation, has been so under rated for so long in comparison by other pallid, annoying so called hacks we had to painfully put up with like rove...
Freak me sideways! Great sketch. And to belatedly reply to dsriggs and Turanga, it can be found on The Micallef P(r)ogram(me): Series Deux DVD. Highly recommended.
I don't think he really fit in on channel nine. I think they thought he'd be sort of like Australia's answer to Letterman. And fuck knows why Merrick and Rosso took his place because they don't really belong there either. Nine are much too straight for this sort of thing, though at the very least I must credit them for having the foresight to see that he needed his own show in the first place. Micallef belongs on ABC or SBS where he is now though.
I can't believe it's taken almost 20yrs for this to show up on my recommendations. Excellent 😂
Best Aussie comedian - period
Paul McDermott was pretty good!?
I think you meant "full stop"
I loved this years ago but now I have a 2 year old this is my life
One of my favourite ever Micallef skits. Simply brilliant.

Still do. At least when Shaun is directly involved. I've heard rumours he might be bringing back Mad As Hell again to the ABC.

Hard to find this type of comedy these days. Definitely banned by muff diving Karens.
Francis cracks me up.
Jesus Christ

Seems to me that they've already axed it..
IT was still funny, just not as funny as the old stuff he did (By the looks of it)
Because they're meant to be english?
Classic.
