Anyone else not liking they’ve started using AI images as jokes?

How do you mean?

I think he means the visual gags like this

I don’t think they’re AI. They animate a bit.

They’re made by the graphics team. They aren’t AI.

How do you think young people work now? Also study. Thats why the world is getting dumber

Can’t remember the joke but it was something about an emperor with a KitKat and then it cut to a very suspiciously cleanly drawn graphic of an emperor with a KitKat.

Just something I’ve noticed they’ve started doing in the last couple of weeks.

TONIGHT: Gold Nominee @LynneMcGranger gets in the nitty gritty about her time on @homeandaway, and @BenLomasComic wraps up the week of sport!

They should have had a Gold Logie nominee from Ten on the show this week like Julia Morris, rather than be promoting a rival Seven personality.

I can’t stand that Lynne Mcgranger.

True, but I also like that they’re able to have other personalities on from other networks. Sure wouldn’t see that on the others.

Mel poking fun at Nova being the top 100 Ed Sheeran songs was awesome… lol

I was glad that they picked up on that one and took the piss out of it too! Tim’s “Elizabeth McGuire” was gold!

I actually quite enjoyed the section with Lynne there too and I think it was much better to have someone like her who has been around for a long time and is topical with her character leaving rather than someone like Julia Morris who they could get on any week or could have got on in previous weeks.

During the chat with Lynne, Melanie also revealed she and her sister grew up in New Zealand watching Home and Away on local TV. Melanie said that her father would often come in to the lounge telling the girls to turn off the TV, but then himself would go into his bedroom to see the soap, on his exercise bike.

To be honest I prefer when they have the long serving tv personalities as opposed to comedians as guests. Stephen Quartermain, Ray Martin, Antony Green and now Lynne have had some of the funniest guest segments.

Lynne was great value.

Also laughed that in Brisbane one of the ads was for whiskey, given all Tim’s talk of his mother’s drinking :laughing: Perhaps they could be a sponsor.

Haha I get the canberra ads these days. But thats funny

I was all for Poh for Gold Logie, now I hope Lynne wins. Probably haven’t watched Home and Away since she was first on but anyone who’s been on a show for 33 years is a legend. She came across as a lovely lady as well.

The Lynne segment was so funny. And she could say what she wanted because shes not contracted to 7 anymore lol.

Also 7 could never do a show where they took the piss out of their own shows. I would love to see regular episodes of Home and Away cast reacting to the out of context absurd stories with honest responses lol

They have often tried but those shows failed.
