Raving Maniac - Classic 70's Aussie humor
« on: April 12, 2011, 03:45:27 AM »
I dont know how much of this is going to be funny to some ppl. The Australian sense of humor being a little drier than that of other countries. I used to love this show as a kid and find it even more funny now that I can understand some of the more subtle points as an adult. The Aunty Jack Show was one of the classic comedy TV shows from the early 70's. Quite Python-esque IMO.

Those guys from New Zealand called Flight of The Conchords were obviously influenced by Aunty Jack.
