It will be back later this year from around August.
Roughly around the Federal Election if the rumours are correct. I’d imagine the ABC would be getting quite a few of their Wednesday night staples to prepare specials in advance for that, such as Gruen and Election Weekly.
Shaun Micallef’s MAD AS HELL - Season 9
From Wednesday 19 September at 8:30pm
As our timocracy hurtles towards mob rule we need…
a Stentor to tell us the news…
a Sage to explain it…
a Seer to warn us…
and a Saint to save us all.
Plus someone to make jokes about it.
Shaun Micallef is that Stentor, Sage, Seer, Saint and
Someone.
Behold his Flaming Chariot!
It’s back.
And it’s Madder and Hellierthan ever before.
(Not Peter Helliar.
He’s notin it).
MADasHELL
Shaun Micallef’s in it.
As is Roz Hammond, Francis Greenslade, Emily
Taheny, Tosh Greenslade, Stephen Hall, Ming-Zhu Hii
and Molly Daniels.
Episode 1 Synopsis
Tony suffers amnesia from a vase falling on his head, and, seeing Jeannie, instantly falls in love with her. He declares his love and insists they get married.
Awesome. Had forgotten he’s back for a second season this year.
Shaun: Malcolm Turnbull, perhaps the greatest of our short range prime ministers.
I noticed Ming-Zhu Hii and Molly Daniels aren’t being used much this season.
Well they are on to fill in for Roz who is overseas for most of the season.
And they’ve already been taken out of the opening titles.
Molly was in this episode? From memory they both had appearances last week
Molly was in tonight’s episode in a ‘carry over champion’ cutaway.
They weren’t in the opening titles last week.
They were at the start of the season, but then they got removed.
Like I said, weren’t in them last week. Have been the rest of the season.
Yes, dressed up as a Joker with Tosh.
I think Emily Taheny was only in one of those sketches too this week.
There seems to be more of a focus on Shaun than on the rest of the cast.
Isn’t there always? I haven’t noticed any difference.
Shaun looks better with no beard.
Good episode tonight. No Molly Daniels sadly.
