Ausgewählte Rezension
Offensively Revolutionary
The first show broke more taboos than the entire first series of 'Oz'- the first use of the c-word on a comedy programme on British Network Television (to say nothing of more f-words than 'Pulp Fiction') this was an alternative chat-show where Sadowitz would interview members of the general public, who would be thrown off if they bored him. Subsequent shows showed a man doing an impression of Charles de Gaulle using only his penis (resulting in the almost unique warning before the show 'This programme contains very strong language and close-up, full-frontal male nudity) and Sadowitz introducing the show with an Indian accent and a turban saying 'Are there any taboos left in comedy?' Sadowitz is one of the most brilliant comedians on the planet, but, of all the ones I've seen- and I've seen hundreds on both sides of the Atlantic- this Scottish/Jewish comedian is the most offensive. The question that must be askes is whether this is revolutionary or merely shock for shock's sake. A show that begins its very first episode with 'This week, we ask the question: Nazis and Jews- Who's right?' is not for everyone, and on occasion, the show has gone too far, but it has earned a footnote in TV history, whatever its quality.
