  • Micro Nation – Micro-Comedy
    Giuffre: Micro Nation – Micro-Comedy MICRO NATION - MICRO-COMEDY Situation comedy and post-broadcast television Liz Giuffre University of Technology Sydney <[email protected]> Abstract This article considers how the concept of micronationality served as a launching pad for a broadcast comedy, the 2012 Australian television series, Micro Nation, set on the fictional island of Pullamawang. I argue that by setting the series within a fictional micronational environment, the creators were able to develop a distinct type of situation for the comedy, embedding the theme of relative size and isolation as a key aspect of the show’s content and utilising unusual production and broadcast techniques. The article’s analysis draws on literature from Television and Broadcast Studies, Island Studies and Genre Studies and reflects on the media representation of micronations more generally. Keywords Television; online television; comedy; micronations, Pullamawang Island Introduction Micro Nation is a short form Australian comedy series, set in a fictional micro- nation/state (see discussion below) first broadcast in 2012. Written by Andrew Garrick and funded by a grant issued as part of the national funding body, Screen Australia (through its ‘All Media Program’), the series consisted of 15 five minute episodes that were broadcast on week nights on digital television channel Eleven, and also made available online via the broadcast network’s website, Tenplay.com.au.1 The series also engaged directly with online audiences with the addition of production and story extras on the Tenplay.com.au site and the creation of a fictional Tumblr account for the micronation’s population, entitled The Pullamawang Tribune (2015).
