Expect costumes, curveballs, and absolute chaos when Thank God You’re Here returns on Wednesday.

Wendy was torture. Very lame and annoying. Never again please and thank you.

Wendy was great

She really wasn’t.

The exit “here, here and here” was really weird and awkward and also getting the audience to “yip”.

Lame and uncomfortable for all. Easy to see. Even Luke apologised.

Didn’t even get the camels name right.

I’m kind of on the fence on this. Yes, I do love the tradition of the blue door, but the thing is the back entrance is so much better.

Aaron absolutely terrible by himself, but great in the all in group challenge. Being awkward isn’t funny if it is the only joke you have.

Gillian should have won - she was brilliant in the individual scene for a first timer.

Susie’s first time?

Agreed on Gillian, she smashed it for a debut and was robbed. Hopefully she returns.

Yeah because Wendy was a fool who had no idea what was going on.

Must say. This is a very very good iteration of this show. As someone mentioned above, Celia much better this season and the sets/costuming etc is the best it has ever been.

I’d love to see two seasons of this a year on ten.
(Do think it’s wasted on a wed night- this should be Sunday night fodder for ten)

Bit harsh there, Wendy is an Aussie showbiz legend, she was no better or worse than anyone else as a supposed judge on the show. The judging to me is superfluous, watching the performances we can all make up our own minds. And I wait for the performances and I don’t give a **** how they enter.

Aaron was best in the group but Gillian was terrific in her solo set.

I think what they could do is let the celebrity in through the blue door even if they are then led out the back and enter a different way. The travel time could be edited out.

They might already do that? Either way if they did do this it would really only be for the audience in the studio I don’t think you would see it at home.

They obviously don’t when Celia clearly says to them: you need to go out the back and someone will show you where you enter.

Amazing. And what was even better was the other performers took and lead and went with it. There was hardly any feeding of lines or set up for one liners (which I am finding increasingly prevalent). Brilliant!

Great episode!

I don’t find Aaron as funny anymore. I have seen him live a lot. And he reused jokes from his live show at the beginning of the show regarding plane food. Even at his comedy show this year he joked about comedians selling out and not caring. It did make me think there was something to it from him.

I thought Wendy was great. So funny. Loved the comment about wanting the cream and the guy to rub it in.
