Kitty and Lehmo nail this. So good at really really being annoying. Rob and Celia always battling.
Rhonda is so real.... Please more Carsten!!!
Bring back Amy and where is Hugh?
Jim and Rhonda being middle men for the government is the reason why they’re fantastic characters
“Middle men” is an exclusionary, offensive, patriarchal turn of phrase. Very problematic.
/s
Not really, they’re middle management, ergo.... middle men
You might say their... Hollow men...
The dialog writing is razor sharp! :D Tony: "What part of that is hypothetical?", Jim: "The confident bit" :D :D pure gold!!
Razor Sharp? It must be a bloody blunt razor.
This may be the most underrated comedy I've ever witnessed. Also its nice to know as an American, my countrys not the only one full of goofball policy makers lol
Out of curiosity, how are you watching it in the USA? I'm so surprised that a TV show from here is being watched overseas. And yes, this is exactly what Australian government departments are like. I work for one... sigh.
Yes, if it's any reassurance, our government here, at all levels (fed, state, local), is full of incompetence, idiocy, stupid ideas and lots of announcements but nothing ever happening due to faffing about is something that both our great countries share. ❤
@@tdb7992 Perhaps these short-cuts are not geo blocked.
@@tdb7992hi.. its even worse in india...
@@continental_drift I saw a Canadian guy mention it (he has a channel on public transport planning that I follow) and talk about how much he enjoys it. It might be on a streaming service available outside of Australia.
Great stuff! Tony’s level of patience is only exceeded by his level of honesty.
Not to forget: Rhonda's level of admin cluelessness is rich fodder for Tony's close encounter with his first HEART ATTACK, assuming he hasn't had several silent strokes prior to this! ❤😅
Tony has the vibe of The Last Sane Man in Town.. 😂
What part of that is hypothetical?
The confident bit 😂
This series feels like an Australian spiritual successor to yes minister. It's absolutely brilliant.
Yeah I been looking for such a successor for long time!!!
The spiritual successor to Yes, Minister.
When the fake ad came on, I thought it was a real ad.
Because that's what all ads are ;-)
I've literally watched each episode over 10x. And every time I catch a new subtle joke. This show really grew on me.
“I’ll make a call”
"FART!" Perfection!! 😂
You come up with the acronym first, and build the policies and spend the money around them
Going to have to watch this now. I’ve watched 5 clips in a row and they’ve all had me grinning from ear to ear. 😂
Gold. And basically factual recreation of real events
Thank you God.
Rhonda is still in the team.
Rhonda... you are AWESOME
LOVE the 3 of you🎉
I fr can’t stop watching this 😂
Guys, it's not fair to be teased with this show all-around if it's not available in my country
This is hilarious. It's the perfect mix of The Office and Yes Minister.
😂 Jim "the confident" 3:12
I get a few laughs from this show, but my overwhelming feeling (after the cringe has passed) -- is that it's soooooo depressing ... to know that outside of the satire, bureaucracies truly ard this horrible and corrupt (excepting Tony and Nat).
Every government ad should include the licinda handwriting font.
So so so so good!!
Wonderful
I’m from Canada, and I just discovered this show (before you ask, it just appeared because I was watching some Australian content)
Let me just say, I was sad after The Office ended, and Steve said they won’t be coming back to do another season.
And this show, Utopia satisfies my wish. I am glad this show exists.
And I love Tony & Nat!!!
I'm a Rhonda and I approve of this Rhonda.
I want to be this Rhonda.
Every organisation both needs it's Rhonda's and needs them all removed
Is that hypothetical ?
We should have a show like that in Canada 😂😂
Too real,
But
Funny.
Thank you.
It’s not real. If Tony took a voluntary redundancy and Nat left for private industry then it would be real.
We have found out 😂😂😂😢... Time to be clear and decisive.
As a Yank, I have to say this show is friggin' brilliant. The Office meets Parks & Recs but better & smarter. I absolutely have to watch this show. This is the best I've seen on screen in years. I love it. Absolutely love it. ...sorry about Trump. The Feckless left did the best we could.
Meets Yes Minister. Sorry to hear of your disability.
Hang in there, mate!!
Oh fuck off, he was the one president who did the most to cut through this type of government bullshit. He is the best president we've had in decades!
That includes weaponising your justice system. Enjoy that can of worms.
This is like 'the Thick of It" without the swearing
Love Rhonda 😂🤣
So glad I found this... Fucking brilliant!
Duress alarm!
anyone who has worked in a corporation (business, hospital, etc.) can relate to one or many of the slapstick truths that occur rapid fire in this absolutely humorous series. Sure, some of the themes are repetitive, but they hammer home how worthwhile ventures and constructive endeavors can be bogged down by the cancer of policy, procedure, policing, and politics. A+++
New fave show... Veep meats The office!!
They have a book that is just a cover and nothing inside
yes but the page thickness is wonderful
feel the weight! The texture!
I swear this is the "office dialogues" I have ever seen in real life... hold on these characters are fake?!... Yeah right...
They interviewed real public servants to ask them for examples of the kind of things they deal with and what goes on in a govt department. They will never run out of material.
Rob and Kitty ❤❤
I'm pretty sure Tony is going to kill one of them or both by the end of the series.
Season 2: Bad Tony
Mentally it's up to around 5k deaths
Namaste 😎
Love carstin
This is so depressing. I’m afraid it’s a documentary rather than satire. It reminds me of Veep.
It’s Helen Tudor-Fisk!
And I thought that these were real people working for a real government? Seriously, I would love to be a fly on the wall when the private sector and government policy makers meet. As for our education, what education? No browny points here. Great send up. Thanks.
Does Kitty Flanagan wear a wig? Or spend hours straightening her hair? I'm curious every time I see her as Rhonda
😂😂😂
If anyone in Govt continues to operate like this, sack them.
Not possible. There'd be no employees left!
It's been a while now that the lunatics have run the asylum.
I'll run it past a focus group.
I hate Rhonda... I love the range of Kitty Flanagan! Meryl should be taking notes!
As PAINFULLY ACCURATE as The Thick of It.
It's only failure is not being even more thoughtless and evil in avoiding accountability by Talking Heads.
F.a.r.t for those outaide aus - to break wind
I think everybody in the English speaking world knows what a fucken fart is mate. It's not Aussie slang. It's from old English. It's probably about 1000 years old as word go.
Old English (recorded in the verbal noun feorting ‘farting’) of Germanic origin; related to German farzen, furzen .
Rhonda is the only lady I would take orders from.
Too much like my work.
Falling behind another country isn’t xenophobic. It’s recognition that you are in a competition and you need to improve yourself.
It is xenophobia if the country you are falling behind is one full of people "not like you" and that your politicans are currently ginning up as a big scary threat - ie currently China. It will be someone else another day.
Yeah but specifically behind china has some cultural context in australia that means a lot of Australians will interpret any stats like that in a xenophobic way.
I've searched and searched and tried VPNs and I've come to the conclusion that there is NO WAY possible for me to watch this show in America and it sucks that I can't.
well since you have no option to get it legitimately, and since you have a vpn, just pirate it
Finally a time where Aussies have access to content others don’t haha. We are always blocked by walls. Great show though hope you can find access
@@johndeere8004apparently ISPs have figured out how to detect VPN usage to bypass geo-restricions and block the content to that connection.
Really do vpns not let you watch it on the abc website?
@@purshottamadevadhikar5035 apparently the ISPs have figured out how to detect and block VPNs.
