- Reaction To Tony Abbott's NBN - Shaun Micallef's Mad as Hell
This is my reaction to Tony Abbott's NBN - Shaun Micallef's Mad as Hell
In this video I react to Australian comedy political satire from Australian comedian Shaun Micallef and his look at the Australian Government scheme NBN and old Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott.
Original Video - • Tony Abbott's NBN - Ma...
People voted Abbott in, and we got a stinking turd of a broadband network. But it turned out to be extremely expensive not at a lower cost at all. Not surprisingly.
Wasn't cheap either 😂
I had a conversation with a Telstra Technician at the time, and he explained to me that each “Node” Box required a Circuit Board worth $15,000 a piece that would need to be replaced frequently, whereas Fibre to the Home was almost Maintenance free. I also remember at the time the Libs saying that they weren’t going to fund Fibre to the Home simply so people could watch UA-cam clips easier. Just crazy.
@@crow7505 I went to Mr Antenna's wedding. The service was sh*t but the reception was fantastic!
The dumbest decision ever made, went from an internet system that would of been the envy of the world to a internet system that is slower than some 3rd world countries. The reason that the original version was slow rolling out, was because people had to be trained to do the roll out. The money that has been lost to country has been immense, due to businesses that required high speed internet that would of been attracted never came and others to moving offshore.
A decentralization disaster and now we are getting a Nuclear power brain wave from drop kick Dutton.
Loved Mad As Hell. Too bad it's been cancelled. Would definitely recommend watching more clips from this show.
Mad as Hell was brilliant! All hail Shaun Micallef, the king of sarcasm. Lol
Mad as hell. I miss it so much. Especially the Darius character. Soooo funny!
You've reached the gold bearing seam here. Years of Australian political and social satire gold. A personal indulgence would be nearly any segment involving the Kraken.Mathias Cor... I mean Darius Horsham was always worth a listen too.
The weekly Mad As Hell was a brilliant satire on the world around. There are sooo many good sketches to choose from.
Now you are running into Australia's topical and funniest politics comedy show ever .I believe one of the funniest politics show worldwide
I went to Mr Antenna's wedding. The service was sh*t but the reception was fantastic!
Boom! Boom! Boom! ching!
Hi mate, now you know what happened to our internet, if they ran fibre to every home as what labour proposed we wouldn't
be in this mess.this is coming from NBN Wireless broadband because I'm in a rural area , its like a mobile tower but WI Fi, speed varies between 130 to 80 Mbps, 112 Mbps Down 9.5 Up at the moment Cheers
You are d.mb AF it was Labor that didn't run fibre to the home, the CLP got it to the street then got booted
My brother was a Marketing Firector at NBN at the start. He hated working with them and didn't stay very long. I went to a talk with the Labor Shadow Minister of Communications at the time and he said ' it's too hard and $$$ to unscramble the egg'
In our street when the intercopperwires were being installed, overnight someone came and stole the copper. about 100 + meters. Hahah. And check out Tony Abbot well known as the man who coined term, 'The Supository of Wisdom' and other inspiring quotes.
This is his best show!! Ran for years. Many awesome skits! Enjoy!
I live in Adelaide and his sister was my lawyer when I had some issues. Great family
Yes, the NBN is totally crap as a direct result of Tony Abbott's short-sighted vision of Australia's future online needs. What a massive blunder!
As for Mad As Hell, it was a cleverly biting, & sometimes sublimely ridiculous, weekly show based on political satire & the skewering of society & pop culture. It wrapped up last year & is sorely missed.
😂😂😂😂
A similar format show which is great and still running is “Have You Been Paying Attention”. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You should take a look at Tony Abbot. After he go through with the internet in Australia, he moved to the UK and became the adviser to the UK board of Trade.
Regards from Adelaide, South Australia 🇦🇺
Mad as Hell is his best program IMO
Mad As Hell also featured some excellent non-political artistic clips, such as the Robot Love skit and The Reporter in The Water skit.
We live in a semi-rural area and bought a Starlink subscription. That's how much we think of how the NBN ended up. And I wouldn't change that decision even looking back on it.
Ditto, we were on ADSL until 2021, early adopter of Starlink and have never looked back. Meanwhile local people continue to bitch and moan about their NBN speeds varying from a barely acceptable 10Mb/s to completely broken, breaking their Internet/VOIP.
They've gone back to fibre to the premises/home in the cities and suburbs (some areas still being fixed) but regional/rural areas are still screwed. Try watching some of the older Roy and HG stuff and also do yourself a favour and watch the old Full Frontal and Fast Forward that Shaun Micallef is part of the team. Another older one is The Comedy Company
Since this show was aired the ALP has largely fixed the NBN and like many homes we now have Fibre to our house. Our speeds are good.
Not here in WA.
@@jessbellis9510 It is coming but people need to remain aware of what NBNCo is doing.
Wow! That must be Albo's greatest achievement!😂🤣
Shaun Micallef hits the nail on the head right here. Look, our internet seems ok, but, in reality, is slower than Kazakhstan's.
There is not a lot I can say NBN without swearing.... You will love Mad as Hell😂
Shaun Micallef's 'Mad as Hell' was some of his best work. The title of the series came from the monologue in the 1976 film 'Network' where Aussie actor Peter Finch plays the part of a network anchor and has a meltdown on air ... "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore ...".
Great acting.

Shaun is brilliant and he also had some very funny regulars on MAH - all very clever at portraying various characters. I used to like the fellow who played Aussie politician Mathius Corman who has an accent that sounds a bit like Arnold Schwarzenegger, but he just imitated him as full-on Arnie. The funniest and memorable one for me is called "Shorten Terminated". Not sure how to send you the link.
Stephen Hall is the very good actor who plays Mathias Corman 😊
These days Shaun writes childrens books
I can't recommend just one segment, because all of it was brilliant. As is Shaun. So just pick anything really - lol. I miss MAH so much. Thanks 😊
Emily Tahini and the rest of the MAH ensemble were part of the reason that show was so hilarious, sadly Shaun decided to end it. Politics is the gift that keeps on giving for comedy material.
Oh yeah, I agree! They were brilliant. 😊
Without knowing it, some of the skits you've reacted to previously are from Mad As Hell. It ran for at least 10 years so there's plenty to find.
If you like this, you might like Clarke and Dawe - A Very Smooth Presentation - also based on this topic.
Brilliant series Mad as Hell
It soon became known as Fraudband.
Turnbull, as Prime Minister started the Snowy 2.0, it's budget exploded from $2B to $ 20 billion.
The NBN budget exploded and still shrank the service.
LNP is the business party, Turnbull and Abbott.
Labor is the peoples party and have made a lot of excellent decisions for Australia.
And then there was "The Fixer" Pyne and his $6 billion Attack class empty pizza box.
I have wireless NBN which can suffer from slower speeds during higher traffic but generally, it isn't too bad. No doubt Labours NBN system would have been better overall but maybe wireless wouldn't have been much different. Let's face it, the Libs don't get much right when they hate spending money so much.
Think this clip from Mad As Hell, starring Brian Pegmatite, our then Defence Minister's, now opposition leader, right hand man. This was my favourite character from this show.

it was an excellent show that really poke your eye out with wit & sarcasm mainly directed towards the foolish right wing bone heads of the liberal party, & sometimes the opposition, that explanation about the NBN is exactly why it is still shit to day.
It is not fair to be picking on Mr. Tone Abbott.
He is after THE stupidest politician we have ever had.
His greatest claim to fame though is, being able to turn dumbness into a high art form, while being serious about it.
Thats happened because the previous government blew the budget like two or three time the cost
Before this stage and it was ment been finished years prior
So when they came into power there wasn't any money but hughe debt
So they had to cheap out to get it to work at all with a hughe costs
Still many places in country areas dont have it and still doing in cities
It would've been cheaper to use satellite or radio towers like their all changing to
Because most people use mobile devices only tv at home and some run them from phones
What rot. They were a bunch of troglodytes who thought fast internet was unnecessary so they came up with a scheme that was supposed to be cheaper. They forgot all about the old copper network they wanted to use being near the end of its use by date it the fact a lot of it was insulated with asbestos which would have to be removed. So the costs blew out to way, way more than they would have with the original scheme.
They destroyed the landline telephone system because the copper couldn’t be used for both and now if there is a power outage people don’t have access to a phone if they are in a poor reception area for mobiles. Too bad if there is an emergency, your VoIP needs wifi.
They cost the country billions and made us the laughing stock of the world.
Are you trying to imply Labour are to blame for the slow speed of our internet because the cost was more than they anticipated. So when the liberals won the election with Tony Abbott (as Prime minster) who was so unpopular, that his party got rid of him as leader (and he lost his safe liberal seat to an independent) and labour won. That labour was to blame? 😂
Its a crap show
