Crazy Credits

Throughout the show, just like "CNNNN", the Newsbar has puns and jokes scrolling along, so the show is worth watching twice for the bonus laughs.

User Reviews

We Report, You Believe!

A clever spin off from the comedy series "CNNNN"(a scathingly witty parody of cable news, specifically CNN/SKY e.t.c), now bringing you biting satire based on Australia's 2004 Election.

Never biased too far left nor right, swinging back and forth like a crazed voter, with clever skits and fake adverts making a mockery of the political system itself.

John Howard's "I will quit leading once I'm under a bus" comments leading to the "Christine"/"DUEL"-style bus chase of the Prime Minister, Opposition Leader Mark Latham's horrible eating habits made into a mockery of the documentary film "Supersize Me!"(http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0390521), and many many more jabs, both short and sweet and long and witty.

Two votes up for this (unfortunately short special) TV series!

To finish: ABC! Bring back CNNNN A.S.A.P!
