Thanks ABC

Thanks for putting Chaser on hiatus. Thanks for the replacement program you gave us. Allow me share an entry from "Australian TV Guide";

Tracey Ullman's State of the Union
Written by and starring Emmy Award-winner Tracey Ullman, State of the Union is a collection of irreverent and hilarious skits that range from sardonic parody and social satire to Bollywood musicals.

I really appreciate the level of thought put into your programming. You showed an American comedy show that failed to make me laugh, smirk or even smile. It looks to me like you've got this all figured out. It seems like you're trying to give Australia a warning. If we as a nation can't enjoy humour that may possibly offend someone, we will end up in a similar situation to America. Comedy that is bland, inoffensive, lowest common denominator crap.

The ABC is trying to make us realise how badly we need the Chaser boys.
