Purely Joyful Movie!

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

A humorous look at the life of an Australian family. Ted Bullpitt, the father and central character, being unintelligent and politically incorrect. Uniquely Australian humour, which overseas viewers may find impossible to enjoy. Brilliant in its day, however, as of 2018 it would probably be considered racist, and its style of humour has not aged well.

The first couple of seasons are very cringe worthy funny. Rude, irreverent, over the top, bad acting, vaudeville at it's worst. The sad thing is there are people like this family, I personally know a few. This, however, doesn't mean it is funny. Once main performers left the show, it declined down the toilet. Not funny, painful at times. Thank goodness Australian TV has improved out of sight since this and the other show Hey Dad dominated our TV's. Turns out the production team on these two shows allowed all sorts of terrible things to go on behind the scenes. They were only interested in one thing. Ratings. While many of the sayings from this show were adopted at the time, it is a show that is dated and no one should bother watching it.

The cast just seem to click with all their political UN correctness,the one liners are absolutely magic how they all follow one another ,Ted's denseness when he comes home from work everyday inquiring about his paper and to its whereabouts, and how his comment,"Money on the fridge" is still used to this day. Ted Bullpit made the Kingswood and the commodore are household name name by always polishing the 'the dipstick' and forever giving his garden Gnome? Neville, I would say a much loved feature of Wombat Cresent, always plenty of airtime with his admiration of him. I think that it would have to be placed in the 'Classic' area of Australian humor.

Pickle me Grandmother ! Strike Me Catholic ! just two of Ted's classic expressions. As a long time fan & studio audience regular I've lost count of the number of times I've heard that.Kingswood Country is without a doubt my favourite Aussie Sit-Com of all time.!The cast of the show were great & the writing superb & typically Australian. Who could forget Neville the concrete garden Aboriginal ? or Gay Akubra & Repco Lad the laziest greyhounds in the world. Yes, Ted's behaviour in the early 80's is not too PC these days(nor is Eddie Booth's or Alf Garnet's) The supporting cast were great too ! Bobby Bullpitt (Ted's brother)Sister Maria (from St Josephs) Merle (Ted's sister in law. Without a doubt the funniest show I've seen.
