Australian Comedy

Is amazing. I just realised that Australian comedy is the best out of all that I have seen. Sure, there are some great comedians from the US (Finesse, Jerry Seinfeld) and also some great ones from Ireland and Scotland, but when it comes to comedy I think Australia wins hands down.
Also, a lot of other countries have admitted that Australia is the world capital for comedy. Ever since our foundation (post-convict era. That time... that time wasn't very funny at all) we've been known as the funny guys (like in World War 2).

Good Australian Comedy:
- Bad Eggs (Movie directed by Tony Martin, stars Mick Molloy among other well known Australian comedy actors. http://imdb.com/title/tt0312409/)
- Crackerjack (Also starring Mick Molloy. http://imdb.com/title/tt0291832/ )
- The Castle (Old but classic. Directed by Rob Sitch, stars Eric Bana, Michael Caton, Bud Tingwell and Tony Martin)

Good Aussie Comedians

- Tom Gleeson: Starred in Skithouse, an Australian sketch comedy series. Co-host of the Tom and Subby show on Triple M (Triple M, where Australia's comedians hang out) and other comedy standup gigs.


There are many others. I had to rush this list because I've gotta go watch The Glass House!
If you get around to it, find a copy of any Mick Molloy movie. Honestly, he's a funny guy.
