rsgrimley I wish you could give a lower score than one star.I made this IMDb account just to vent about this visual vomit. Think about that.... I've seen reality shows (which are terrible), daytime chat shows (garbage)..... And I still think this is the worst product I've seen. At least reality shows and daytime chat shows are open to being cheap and catering to the lowest common denominator. This is worse than all of it. It's like it's willfully oblivious to how awful it is....Let's counterpoint it with SNL, a live show that written each week. Better writing, performances, actual satire and wit - when it doesn't work, at least the excuse is the time-frame. Now.... Open Slather isn't live. People sat in writers rooms and thought 'this is funny'. Inexcusable.Take the recent ad, a 'parody' of 'Bang Bang'. It'd barely be acceptable as a parody performed by a local amateur comedy troop. People got PAID to write, produce and film that. Ugh. Also; how bad is it that this song is deemed to be the highlight and is the main thrust of an advert for the show....?If this isn't on TV to fulfill some kind of mandatory percentage or quota for locally produced work....then for shame.If this is supposed to demonstrate the 'cream' of Australian sketch comedy then it just demonstrates how far behind we are. Look up UCB or Groundlings, those amateur up- and-comers can IMPROVISE an hour that's more topical, biting and laugh-out-loud funny than this dreck.Whilst the Four Horsemen of the apocalypse are well known by name and nature, I'm amazed that their battle plan name, the Open Slather, to end humanity has taken this long to become known. Maybe its wishful thinking that's the worst this show can get.
taz_682 Completely cringe-worthy. Very difficult to watch for more than a couple of minutes at a time. Some of the comedians involved have to be better than what the show produces. I cannot believe that they would watch an episode of the show and be proud that they were involved.Even the sketches chosen for ads on Foxtel are not at all funny or clever. They provide no motivation to watch the show and I would suggest Comedy Channel really suggest reviewing it.I would not recommend this show to anyone, young or old.
Chucky110 This is one of the worst Sketch shows I have ever seen. The sketches are not funny in the slightest. I struggle to even giggle. The only thing I laugh at is how bad they are. The only one I really liked was Rack. Gina Minehart is lame. The show is nothing compared to the classic sketch shows like Fast Forward and Full Frontal. It is expected though when one of the writers is a lame comedian anyway and is not funny in the slightest Not worth the time watching this. I can't believe this show actually exists. I would prefer to watch reruns of the older shows. How anyone could actually let this show on the air is a joke itself. It should be removed asap
Joshua Burles Open Slather contains amazing Australian short skits that will keep you cackling forever. Almost all the skits are parodies of things. We see in the first episode; Government parodies (gina Rinehart, Add parodies (jeep), Music video (love me like you do) parodies, TV show parodies (downton abbey) All of these are carefully and creatively executed. Many people expect something on the lines of Chris Lilley's ''jam'ie' or 'jonah' shows. But Open Slather is almost identical to 'fast forward' or any other skit show. Open Slather is currently my favorite show and i sit on the edge of my seat waiting for the next episode! :D I recommend this show to almost everyone!
