That was neat, although the pixelation was really bad. Didn't look like there were any spoilers in it though. The "way off key" accordion bit was hilarious!

what kind of spoilers?

I just meant that you might prefer to see the extended version on TV before you see it on the web. But if you don't get ABC2 it doesn't matter anyway I suppose.

Btw, I've watched it twice already, and I'll probably watch it again in the near future. I can't get enough!

ETA: I loved it when the other guy named Al mentioned that 24/7 internet polka radio station. Our Al said "Wow! That'd be like crack to me."

I loved that line too! Especially the way he looked so serious when he said it. But I thought Al's entire performance was just brilliant. He's such a charmer, isn't he?

OK, here I go... Never done this before...This is very intense...If there was music here, it would be, y'know, INTENSE...

Fave Quotes:

-JTV:
"Oh, this is REALLY a bad accordion!"

-Mornings with Kerri-Anne:
"I had learn to writhe, and writhing takes practice!"

-Spicks & Specks:
1. "Really? Wow, that'd be like crack to me."
2. "Buh-bum--"
BEEP!
"How could you not know this? It's the theme from JAWS, with the most famous tuba solo in history!"

Goodness, that is amusing for him to play the really bad accordion.

Yeah!!! I burst out laughing when he said " the best accordions are from hawk shops" then plays 2 notes on it and goes "oh this is BAD... This is a good accordion for setting on fire... This makes me wanna kill!".

Unbelievably funny. I had to watch it twice because I was laughing too hard to pay attention to what was going on. Too bad it's not up for download though.

Oh, but it is. No-one really wants me to upload my own version of it, do they? Like I said before, I doubt I will, since the ABC have been so kind as to put it up on the internet for us all. The Americans here have been able to access it, haven't they?

Here's the podcasts for the entire episodes, just in case anyone wants them.
