Kath and Kim

[megrayau]

Has anyone seen this?
Do you understand it?
As an Aussie, I think it is pretty funny~ so true in so many ways (unfortunately!!)

Ohhh Meg I've never missed an ep I love the foxy morons from Fountain Gate!
I take it your series on chanel 7 started last night, sunday, also?
The kids love thank god you're here for the last 3yrs, and they both said, hey that's Peter Rosethorn and Glen Robbins, they seem to have missed the other Kath and Kims.
Love it I good humour!

Hey Kathy!! Watch out here! Fountain Gate is a real place and there ARE foxy morons shopping there ~ I see them at least fortnightly when I shop there! But they aren't usually on TV! Foutain LAKES is the home of Kath and KIm. Hmm, I wonder if you have been there at some time??

Do you think it will work if it's recast in the States with American actresses? Is the Aussie cringe culture really transferrable?

[Bilby]

Wow it must be the way I hear it from them, I thought it was gate, oh well.

I don't wish to upset anyone but I have seen an ep of Thank god you're here from the US and it doesn't come off quite the same, I didn't find it that funny (could have bben teh set up) BUT saying that the US may not find ours that funny. YES the humour is different and I'm not sure that the US would get our Kath and Kim so recasting would have to be the go.
The Brits get us more than the other places.

But I love 'em, I reckon Gina Riley would have to have to be tough to walk around in the outfits she does for Kim and that look, priceless!
..... they all play their roles so well!
