Spicks & Specks 100th Show
Well there goes 100 episodes. Most have been hilarious and fun (helps to have a couple of glasses of red of course!) whilst others have caused me to hit the red harder to enjoy them. Much of the success imho depends on the guests. It still rates well which is great to hear (go local Aussie content!) but I think it’s time they changed the format around a bit. I’ve followed the show since day 1 (you can thank Myf for that :D ) so I’ve seen guests sing passages from the most obscure books imaginable countless times and the novelty has started to wear a little thin. What do you guys think? Should they mix it up a little and start some new segments? Should they get favourites Hamish Blake, Frank Woodley, Ross Noble, Jason Byrne, Amanda Keller, etc… to appear more often? What about showing more classic ‘tragic’ video clips at the end of the show? (like the one above). Or is the show absolutely perfect the way it is?











Every episode with Stephen k Amos and Michelle (forgot her last name) have been crackers. I’m actually quite sick of seeing Hamish on there regularly. Its a great show, particularly the segment ‘look wat they done to my song ma’ is a classic. can’t wait for another 100.
Can i just say wednesday nites is really abc tv nite.
Stephen K Amos is great yeah! Is Michelle the blonde woman who’s also on radio? Can’t say I’m a fan if it’s her.
ABC completely OWNS Wednesday nights! Spicks & Specks, The Chaser and At the Movies. All great!
I love Myf Warhurst. I think it’s a shame she’s stuck on breakfast on Triple J right now, rather than with her own slot, but that’s a whole other thing.
I also love Wednesday nights on the ABC. I think though that the Spicks and Specks format IS a little tired - I’m sure the creative minds behind the show can come up with some fun stuff for the next season.
I think I have a bit of a celebrity crush on Adam Hills.
