88th verse same as the first.
For those of you that have no idea what this wank is about here and here is a decent primer. For those of you too lazy for that, all you really need to know is that Kath & Kim is a satirical comedy series that is largely character based and points fun at lower middle class Australia.
Anyway as we all know finding wank on IMDB is a little like winning a 100 metre sprint against someone with no legs, I just never expected to find it on the Kath & Kim board, well it turns out I was very, very wrong.
It all starts when Double The Fist fanboy 02edwacu-1 posts a new topic entitled Kath & Kim is the worst comedy ever!!.
Wank ensues.
Camp? Shallow? Of course, you mean origional and sharp! I get it, reverse criticism, brilliant! - projectcyclops
nooo the worst comedy ever will be gilligans island - muzza88
its only boring and funny to you, people all have different tastes but lets keep this forum for constructive conversation hey? find a film you like and go chat about that. my only andvice to people is to stop replying to pointless threads - minimcfarlane
Top notch? I guess that an unoriginal, humourless badly made piece of crap can go a long way these days. First of all, the jokes are pathetic. I watched the first episode and found it VERY hard to sit through. Gina and Jane just thought "Hey, the Australian public are idiots. We can recycle our last pathetic program 'Big Girl's Blouse', put a lot less effort into it, play ourselves, and convince the ABC, a pack of idiots who only care about money and not quality, that people will watch it. Now, the story behind "Double the Fist" is better than any pathetic pissweak story the 'writers' of K & K could ever copy off another show. Their own documentary sums it up perfectly, which is on their personal "Illegal and Unauthorised Volume 2 DVD", which they sold to me yesterday at "Supernova". These guys were rejected by EVERYONE. No-one believed in them. Only ABC eventually accepted their offer because 2 people in the comedy department realised how great the show was. The ABC only gave them $125,000 initially for an entire 8 episodes! I reckon Gina and Jane get that much each per episode at least. After scrounging around, the FTO and ABC again upped their budget to $230,000. But even so these guys were using money from their relatives and their own pockets to finance their show. They hardly had enough money left over for food and rent. They were working full time on this show. ABC gave them the worst timeslot of the week, and it was even against "Big Brother Up Late". When they went to the AFI awards, they were given one room between 6 people at the local hotel, and whilst Gina and Jane were given their own limo and driven to the red carpet, the DTF boys drove themselves and had to park elsewhere. The enevitable outcome: Kath & Kim LOST the AFI for best comedy. Why? Because it's chosen by intelligent people in the entertainment industry who judge based on quality rather than popularity. That is why "Double the Fist" was the obvious winner. Let's compare the two once again: Kath & Kim: recycled, cliched, badly writtern and acted, humourless crap that the Australian public seem to lap up. Double the Fist: One of the most original, hilarious, well made, over-the-top programs to ever come out of Australia. Top put it in terms fistworthy people will understand: Double the Fist: Full Fist Kath & Kim: NO FIST! - Jozxyqk
Bleh, the people who don't "get" Kath and Kim are the lame ones. Probably the very type of people the show takes the piss out of. ;) :D - gina_riley_admirer

NOW STOP CRYING AND GO AND BUY DOUBLE THE FIST VOL 1 AND 2 - morganstratford

Conclusion:- Double The Fist fanboys are completely batshit insane.
