The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly – 20.02.08

Televised Revolution continues its efforts to ensure that nothing gets past its loyal readership with the commencement of the Good, The Bad, and The Ugly – a dedicated guide to daily TV highlights and lowlights.

The Good
Stupid Stupid Man (ABC1 9pm)- Produced originally for TV1 is this moderate to good Australian sitcom set in the world of mens magazines. “Men’s magazine COQ (it’s French for rooster) covers all the cutting edge issues important to today’s man: fast cars, high-achieving sports people and lots of good looking, scantily clad women“. Starring Bob Franklin, Matthew Newton, and Wayne Hope, Stupid Stupid Man is likely to fly under most peoples radars. Especially with Underbelly against it on Nine.

The Bad
Cashmere Mafia (Nine, 9:30pm)- Nine kicks off this new US import series that is from the producers of Sex & The City. Expect more of the same, only a bit more sanitized with the program produced for US free to air.

The Ugly
Back To You (Ten, 8pm)- Considered one of the best US sitcoms to currently be on the air, this new Kelsey Grammer series is proof that the format is most certainly dead. If anybody can name me a quality multi-camera sitcom to be produced post-Seinfeld, I wish you luck!
