The Front Bar

@blackbox one of the reasons why this show works, is that it isn’t polished. It’s live television at it’s best. I don’t know how many times the boys go off skript, but it works. Something the morning shows should be looking into.

The Jack Waftts bit tonight was clearly not supposed to be mentioned live on air for example.

Last year when I saw both The Project and The Weekly they were very strict that mobile phones had to be turned off and no photos. At Ten they immediately pounced on a woman who took a photo with her phone during an ad break, but they did let her stay.

Garry Lyon will be on the show in two weeks’ time (August 22). Since the start of this season, Mick Molloy has been making fun of Lyon’s hosting of AFL Squadron on Seven in early 1990s.

According to today’s Herald Sun, the Grand Final edition will be held at Hotel Esplanade in St Kilda on Thursday, September 26. More details will be revealed on tonight’s show, but I believe tickets will be available on Moshtix.

It was announced tonight that The Front Bar will do a few cricket specials over the next few months. More details to come but apparently Sam Pang won’t be involved with them

Great to hear! I’d expect someone like Damien Fleming to take Sam’s spot in a cricket version.
