Yes, I know all soaps are shit but why do Australian ones have to be so preachy. If someone drinks more than one beer in them, they are an alcoholic. If someone smokes a joint, they will fall through a table and seriously injure themself. If someone gambles, some chick will get killed in a car crash because of it. Please! Spare us this sanctimonious crap!:willy_nilly:

AND, you've obviously never heard of "The Box" or "No 96"....brilliant soaps from the 70's. (not that I watched them):ninja

Neighbours is the best, get over it.

Home and Away used to be awesome till it turned to Bold and The Beautiful/Days of our Lives

.. Underbelly was pretty cool. It was banned where I live for a while because the case was still going on haha :D


Aussie TV is the best, I love it.

Underbelly was fucking awesome!!!:thumbup I've got the books too. That's not a soap though, it's real life. Admittedly only real life gangster shit in Australia could be as funny and absurd as Lock Stock... but that makes it all the better. :thumbupl

What are you talking about? Seeing Aussie actors I've only seen in religious cult soaps, getting their tits out, is what attracted me to it in the first place!:bates:

When it comes to our soaps and movies I'm not very patriotic.

They're all crap.

Our documentaries are pretty good though, and SOME of our comedy shows.

Come on! Australia was brilliant! A good, old fashioned epic that the world has been crying out for, made awesome by the cinemaphotography. :nod:

Oh, how could I forget! Rabbit Proof Fence was awesome too. :thumbup
