With the demise of Q +A, perhaps ABC should look to commission something similar in format to Gruen Nation. Experts discussing topical events and issues with some humour injected. Could be worth a try?

Gruen. Back. 29 April. ABC. End of Ad.

Our society no longer has the attention span necessary for a full press release so let’s keep this short: Gruen is back Wednesday 29 April at 8pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.

Wait, that’s still too long. How about we say Gruen’s back! Or maybe we just go with Gruen!

Please read the following message one word at a time between scrolls on your phone.

Gruen .

Back.

ABC.

Wednesday 29 April at 8pm.

Ads. TV. Online. Everywhere.

Wil. Panel. Everyone.

Pitch. Ads. Everything.

Gruen .

Australia’s favourite multi-award winning, multi-award losing, longest running (probably now that Neighbours has bitten the dust again), and most importantly, the only show about advertising is coming back for an 18th season.

But wait, there’s more. The show is new and improved. Zero calories. Full of protein. Contains collagen. Active ingredients. No artificial colours, flavour, or intelligence. And is guaranteed to be on free-to-air or your money back.

Host Wil Anderson said: “We were really hoping that the end of the world would stop advertisers, but it turns out that we live in hell, and they’re selling us snowballs.

“It’s heartwarming to think that all the children that were conceived during the pilot episode of The Gruen Transfer are now old enough to serve in World War Three. Can’t wait to see the recruitment advertisements.”

Unfortunately, as a modern media consumer you have already forgotten the core message at the start of this release so to reiterate: Gruen. Back. Wednesday 29 April at 8pm.

PRODUCTION CREDIT: Production Credit: Commissioned by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. A CJZ and ABC co-production. Series Producer: Sarah Douglas.

Something felt a bit off in tonight’s episode. I don’t know if it was because it was the first episode of a new season or whether the show is feeling a bit tired. Going vulgar for the cheap laughs doesn’t work.

Even the commercials made for The Pitch were really weak this time.

Check your front door. Amazon has delivered your package. It’s not there? Probably porch pirates. Watch Gruen instead. Wil, Todd and Russel are joined by Liana Rossi and Renata Yannoulis.

Are they angling for online more maybe?

Good to see that it was back in form this week. Better banter and laughs. And the commercials made for The Pitch were heaps better this week.

Although one was clearly just AI.

Smaller studio too this year?

They’ve used 21 for at least a couple of years now. It was in 22 originally
