The Chaser's War on Everything is great Aussie comedy, full episodes are legally downloadable from that link.

I was never much of a fan of ronnie johns, his biggest thing is doing the chopper impression and personally I much prefer Eric Bana in the film.

Some other great Aussie comedies are Life Support, the Micallef Program and Comedy Inc.

The show has also been sold to television networks in many other countries. Episodes from 1999 were aired for a six-week trial basis on the American channel Oxygen in March of 2004. At first, it was shown in the afternoon opposite higher-rated American soaps such as The Young and the Restless and All My Children, which gave the show anemic ratings from the first airing; the people who would be most interested in the show were watching other, more established serials. After a couple of weeks, the show moved to a late-night time slot and eventually left the air entirely. It was not the first Australian soap opera to be aired in the United States: The Sullivans, Prisoner, Home and Away, The Young Doctors, Paradise Beach, and Pacific Drive had also been previously shown.

The show aired in Canada on regional television channel 47, Toronto-based CFMT (now part of the OMNI network owned by Rogers Communications Inc.), for a period of about five years in the early to mid-1990s, starting in September 1990. The channel started the series right from the beginning and aired two episodes back to back for the first several months. It never achieved the audience that youth-oriented cable network YTV saw at the same time with Home and Away and was dropped.

It has been long aired by Television New Zealand and screens twice daily at 11:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. It was initially aired by TVNZ when Neighbours started showing in New Zealand in 1988, but by 1996 it had been removed from the schedule. Canwest's TV4 (now C4) picked it up and aired it from 1997 to 2000. They dropped it in 2000, and it returned to TV2 in 2002, where it stayed till early 2007, until moving to TVOne in February 2007, and screens at the time of 3:50.

Neighbours is aired in Belgium on the VRT at 5:30 p.m., Monday to Saturday. The show has been broadcast in Belgium since 1988; they are three years behind Australia. In Kenya, Neighbours airs on the KTN network at 12.30 p.m., Monday to Friday with an omnibus on Sunday mornings. They are approximately three years behind Australia. Neighbours is also aired in Barbados on CBC8, Monday to Friday. They are approximately four years behind Australia

lol, in Beligum and Kenya they are 3 years behind whilst Barbados are 4 years behind... And in the UK we are only 3 months, I would hate to be all the way back in the 2003/4 episodes

:rofl:

Very popular - Maybe more so than it is in Aussie

Me neither until I read about it on Wikipedia some time ago

lol @ Neighbours cards, that's just sad! lmao

I know, she was born in 1994 and now in 2007 she's 15... when she should only be 13, but for the storyline she is in now they had to make the character a few years older (from being away) oh and replaced the original
