I've noticed throughout the show everyone seems pretty careless, considering they are living in a totalitarian state. Juliana just rolling up to investigate the house of her dead contact - might not the police be watching the house? Joe snooping around while getting some pretzels. Juliana explaining she can't call…

Erica wouldn't have said "butt". Australians say arse or bum. Also, we Australians would very much appreciate it if the Australian character (who is very likely the last Australian on earth) was given a second dimension.

For some reason I can't explain, I found Tandy's repeated references to "three bacons" hilarious. Is this an Americanism or just a Tandyism?

Mexico City was always the best place to move your team to in Madden. Huge stadium and crowds every week. I relocated the Denver Broncos as the Mexico City Bandidos and won three straight Superbowls.

Hard to tell how crowd numbers would translate from 3 games to a regular thing though. People will turn up to a one off sporting event but once it's a regular thing and people can go anytime, crowd numbers always go down.

The Eleventh Doctor was best at that.
"It's like cup-a-soup, but instead of adding water you add time, if you can imagine that, no one can imagine that, forget about cup-a-soups."
"You know those tiny bubbles you sometimes get on the outside of larger bubbles? It's nothing like that."

Does anyone know enough about wire walking to say, objectively, how dangerous this was? Not trying to suggest this isn't death-defying - it scares the pants off me - but is it one of those things that is not as dangerous as it appears? Or is it every bit as dangerous as it appears?

Not at all. The public was so hostile to any humor about 9/11 for quite some time. Any comedian who did 9/11 jokes before the end of 2001 got my respect as a very brave comedian indeed.

Me too. Just the thought of standing there and looking down sent my brain into panic mode.

No more Kangaroo Jack! I am cancelling my Netflix subscription forthwith…

Ok, so I think Melbourne, Australia might have you covered. If you get on a bus or a tram here, and you don't already have our local travel smartcard, there is no way to purchase a ticket. You have to get off, go to the nearest train station or 7-11 and buy a smartcard. Which costs $6, plus the credit you put on it.…

As an Aussie who is somewhat familiar with the comedy stylings of Ronny Chieng it will be very interesting to see how he goes on The Daily Show. He is a reasonably funny standup I guess, although I could name dozen Australian comedians who I would choose before him. But correspondent on The Daily Show is very…

As John Oliver said "comfortably racist". Although most racism against Asians in Australia is from right-wing idiots, the same people who'd be racist against Mexicans if they lived in the US or against eastern Europeans if they lived in the UK.

Well, Canada dropped it first. And came up with such a great flag it's amazing it has taken NZ so long to change theirs.

You know Australia is that country just below Asia yeah? That like asking whether America has any Latinos or Canadians. Maybe you are thinking of Austria.

I saw Kingsmen on Cathay recently. They edited the bit where the European princess is offering Eggsy sex if he rescues her, to remove the line about anal. But they didn't edit the conclusion, where Eggsy's boss realises he is watching Eggsy have said sex through a spy cam. So you see part of a naked princess, with no…

Yeah he did a very funny bit about that, although I was annoyed by that phenomenon before I saw his bit. I was trying not to use his same example in my comment actually.

I remember being a bit pissed at this at the time. There seemed to be this assumption that people wouldn't be able to handle anything that even vaguely reminded us of 9/11. So movies had to expunge the WTC from the background and got criticised if they didn't.

Yeah Cathay Pacific doesn't edit profanity anymore. I spoke to someone who works there and they said it was a call from senior management because passengers expect their films intact now.
