Two of Australia’s most prolific comedy talents, Dave Hughes and Ed Kavalee first worked together back in 2009 and have an effortless on-air chemistry and union. They have been bolstered by the addition of reporter and presenter, Erin Molan, with the trio delivering Sydney the laughs from 6-9am weekdays on 2DayFM and from 6-7pm across the Hit Network. DAVE ‘HUGHESY’ HUGHES Dave Hughes is one of the biggest names in Australian comedy and his easy, laconic style disguises one of the nation’s sharpest comedic minds. His unflinching honesty connects him to audiences from all walks of life, evident through his prolific career across radio, TV and live stand-up comedy. Hughesy’s hugely successful TV shows, The Masked Singer and Hughesy, We Have a Problem make him one of Australia’s most loved national personalities. ED KAVALEE Known for his lightning fast comedy, wry wit and improvisation skills, Ed Kavalee has worked extensively in Australian television and radio for over a decade. Ed is a mainstay of Network Ten’s hugely successful comedy quiz show, Have You Been Paying Attention and has also forged a radio career of his own with roles on both Hit and Triple M, including the seminal Get This with Tony Martin. Russell Crowe remarked that Ed is ‘funny as sh*t’. Gladiatorial high praise indeed. ERIN MOLAN Erin has hosted multiple sports shows for the Nine Network and is the weekend sports presenter on Sydney’s number one news bulletin. Erin earned admiration for her informative and empathic broadcasting on 2GB and 4BC during some of the worst bushfires the nation has experienced in the summer of 2020 and will bring an extra layer of lively to Hughesy and Ed’s already brilliant and established show. .

October 2008 Comedy Channel Highlights
www.comedychannel.com.au OCTOBER 2008 HIGHLIGHTS THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW WORLD PREMIERE Thursday October 2 @ 8.30pm Continues Thursdays at 8.30pm Merrick and Rosso are back on the box where they belong, with the keys to the Foxtel car - and enough fuel in the tank to really cause some chaos! They’ll finally return to their broadcasting birth place at The Comedy Channel with THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW. So what’s on the cards for the new show? Each week the boys will front up before a live studio audience with their unique take on anything and everything. From what’s happening in the world of news to the big questions: Can you deep fry a watermelon? On THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW, celebrities will make regular guest appearances from in-studio interviews to recorded comedy pieces to show you a side of them never before seen. Into the mix will go plenty of studio audience interaction and more mayhem and stupidity than is legal in three states. For perhaps the first time, Merrick Watts and Tim Ross will truly focus the energy and excitement of their legendary sell-out live comedy shows and bring that force to the electric television. It’s hotter than Gordon Ramsay’s kitchen, is sure to top Brendan Nelson’s approval ratings and it’s ‘wronger’ than an Austrian family get-together. THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW will allow nobody to be immune from their parodies and sketch comedy. Finally, as Merrick and Rosso are keen to point out, “Put simply, the show is Morcambe and Wise meets The Star Wars Christmas Special at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting during The French Renaissance… on a weeknight.” Buckle up Australia, for a riotous half hour of THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW.

Tony Martin Was Born in Te Kuiti, New Zealand, in 1964, and Has Spent The
Tony Martin was born in Te Kuiti, New Zealand, in 1964, and has spent the last thirty-odd years in Melbourne, Australia, writing, producing, directing and performing what his grandmother would have called ‘a lot of nonsense carry-on’. His credits are too numerous, or in some instances, too poor, to list in full, but include The D-Generation, The Late Show, Martin/Molloy and Get This. He is the author of Lolly Scramble, A Nest of Occasionals, Scarcely Relevant and that episode of Upper Middle Bogan where they go to Smorgy’s. DEADLY KERFUFFLE TONY MARTIN 1 THE GET-GO It was clear, from what Herb Turgent was saying, that the people at number 14 were different. ‘They’re different, that’s for sure,’ he’d said, even before Gordon had unhooked the chain on the back door. ‘And I wouldn’t put anything past ’em. You heard it here first.’ Herb was always saying ‘You heard it here first,’ and Gordon, his closest friend and neighbour, was always shaking his head, a response Herb chose to read as agreement. ‘Am I putting the jug on?’ Gordon enquired, as Herb stumbled into the kitchen, disentangling himself from a glaringly inappropriate parka. ‘Mandarin Breakfast?’ he offered, waving some orange packets of tea he’d won at the bowls club. A puff of bluster implied yes, so Gordon filled the kettle and steeled himself for Herb’s findings. ‘I reckon they could be a cell.’ Here we go. ‘A what? ’ ‘I saw this on Current Affair,’ said Herb, lowering his voice for effect.

FedUni ResearchOnline https://researchonline.federation.edu.au Copyright Notice This is an original manuscript/preprint of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Continuum in September 2020, available online: https://doi.org/10.1080/10304312.2020.1782838 CRICOS 00103D RTO 4909 Page 1 of 1 Comic investigation and genre-mixing: the television docucomedies of Lawrence Leung, Judith Lucy and Luke McGregor Lesley Speed In the twenty-first century, comedians have come to serve as public commentators. This article examines the relationship between genre-mixing and cultural commentary in four documentary series produced for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) that centre on established comedians. These series are Lawrence Leung’s Choose Your Own Adventure (2009), Judith Lucy’s Spiritual Journey (2011), Judith Lucy is All Woman (2015) and Luke Warm Sex (2016). Each series combines the documentary and comedy genres by centring on a comedian’s investigation of a theme such as spirituality, gender or sex. While appearing alongside news satire, these docucomedies depart from the latter by eschewing politics in favour of existential themes. Embracing conventions of personalized documentaries, these series use performance reflexively to draw attention to therapeutic discourses and awkward situations. Giving expression to uncertain and questioning views of contemporary spirituality, gender and mediated intimacies, the docucomedies of Lawrence Leung, Judith Lucy and Luke McGregor stage interventions in contemporary debates that constitute forms of public pedagogy. Documentary comedy These series can be identified as documentary comedies, or docucomedies, which combine humour and non-fiction representation without adhering primarily to either genre. Although the relationship between comedy and factual screen works has received little sustained attention, notes Paul Ward, a program can combine both genres (2005, 67, 78–9).
