Juicelog Tues 130606: Finished off watching the (third series) Kath & Kim DVD that Miss Boobies lent me. Annoyingly I wasn’t able to watch two out of the eight episodes as there is a problem with the DVD.
Gina Riley and Jane Turner have managed to deliver the goods third time round with their brand of subtle suburban Ozzie humour. Having already garnered a cult following, Riley and Turner’s magical formula of this Aussie family is something that the British viewer might not pick up straight away but I don't think it is essential to understand all the references to appreciate this series. It is hard to work out what part of the Australian class system they are suppose to be parodying as we get to see their middle class aspirations but humorous verbal banter of the uneducated.
The puns are well thought out and brilliantly delivered (with their trademark accents) into the simple subject matter of each episode. The outfits will no doubt be the theme of many fancy dress parties. The cheesy lines have now become classics and the awkward moments can easily make you cringe just like The Office. Wouldn't it be noice if we were to get a fourth series?

Is it wrong to fancy Brett so much...?
