^^^ Just caught three episodes of Housos after Sunday lunch at Deans. The casual Aussie diners quickly paid their bills and fled the premises.

Watched the whole of series one last night ... all episodes via Youtube in order .. FAF very very funny BUT CAUTION ..you do need a strange sense of humour and the language n content is a tad blue.

No wonder the Aussies at Deans all ducked for cover n check binned except UD Connors Col who felt very at home and comfortable viewing.

Housos and Fat Pizza both excellent and reccoed.

These are hardly documentaries, they are so called reality TV shows that concentrate on producing cringeworthy TV for the great unwashed.
I had a bumper sticker in Texas that read 'Beam me up Scotty'. I often wish I could find one in Udon Thani

Most definately not a documentary or reality tv .. comedy sitcom , or soap ???

Series 2 on par with series 1 DAM FUNNY ... similar theme to must say the episode where Shazza n Frankie got to Tokoyo was by far the worst... but made up for by the police episode with Gary n Rich.

Please tell me this IS NOT an accurate portrayal of Aussie life.

DM showered this morning .. just bathed again most certainly not unwashed.

The program's writers get some of their ideas from real news
ie the drugs in the boogie board, change the name from Shazza to Schapelle
different destination and outcome

Is this the Aussie equivalent of Trailer Park Boys from Canada? That show is hilarious once you get into it.

Whilst i agree this Ozz sitcom.is a tad unusual ..it seems most nations have a similar version .. with many head shakingly weird ..

On the subject of TV .. ive just seen the promo fir Miss Tiffany Universe .. Thailand .. seems onlt Thai contestants practing the swim wear section .. absolutely blooming georgous and i degy anyone being able to tell the difference until.shower time .. the only give away was the larger than normal swim briefs .. apple catchers in fact my old gran wore smaller .

Decision time .. a mooch about the twnklys or stay in n watch the tranny show .

Possible the best series made by Pauly Fenech and crew is Shift and Swift Couriers with many episodes on Youtube. Aussies will recognise the great Ian Turpie, sporting the iconic Aussie middle management fashion statement of shorts and long socks. Gold \:D/
