It’s finally here! The pilot episode of the much anticipated new SBS comedy with Lee Lin Chin has been released and it has delivered the foul-mouthed, hard-drinking, monstrously ruthless Lee Lin we’d all been waiting for.
The show is about the team behind SBS’s weekend news program and the mountain of shit the staff have to crawl through to produce news that will be watched by very, very few people.
Starring Miles Bence, Madeleine Madden, Emily Wright, Chris Leben, Peter Moalaeua and, duh, Lee Lin Chin as the incompetent and largely insane SBS employees trying to walk a fine line between reporting the news and not biting the Governmental hand that feeds.
There’s also a bonus appearance from veteran Aussie actor Bruce Spence who’s been in Mad Max 2, The Matrix Revolutions and Star Wars: Episode III and also Charlie P.
It’s very fast paced, packed with jokes and almost astonishing in the level with which it gets to make fun of the SBS, clearly they’ve got either a pretty good sense of humour about themselves or they really, really want people to like the show.
You can watch the trailer here, or you can watch the full episode here, which you totally, totally should:
