It attempts to portray Julia and Tim - both of them in real life odd to the point of marginality, in terms of background and lifestyle - as ordinary, decent Aussies. Sure, they do silly things, but don't we all??<br /><br />To put it succinctly, the programme aims to make it harder to hate Gillard!<br /><br />Consuela PotezAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14457232127152238.post-15554585148039248832011-09-21T12:40:10.098+10:002011-09-21T12:40:10.098+10:00My problem with the show is that the white Coms Ca...My problem with the show is that the white Coms Car that Juliar is shown riding in during the opening credits is CLEARLY a fake!!<br /><br />Everyone knows that in a real Coms Car the windows, being bullet proof and ever so slightly THICK, do not actually wind down.<br /><br />So there - show was ruined and I am never watching again.<br /><br />Oh, that and the fact I got up to the three minute mark without actually managing to see any jokes.

Another line of bleating, this time started by the hapless Gillard, is that our 'national conversation' has become 'Americanised' and consequentially debased. While wild horses would not normally be able to drag me towards agreement with the frump, (as in 'Dump the Frump'), in the case of the 'don't disrespect' line she is right (although I don't suppose she would agree!). This line makes some sense where the political leader is also the head of state, and the dwindling band of Obama supporters are banging on this drum. In contrast, where the latter is not a political actor (as in a symbolic monarchical system) the less damage is done to a figure that does not represent the dignity of the polity. Of course, when people like Bill Deane and what's-her-name occupy the office of representing the Queen, the point has less force.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14457232127152238.post-44194423962174000022011-09-21T11:18:32.643+10:002011-09-21T11:18:32.643+10:00"the ABC ... should not be adding to a beleag..."the ABC ... should not be adding to a beleaguered Labor leader’s many woes"<br /><br />Really? Gillard got a bump in approval in the latest Newspoll. The AHWJ effect? Editorials say it is due to her efforts at compromise - yeah, right. It's AHWJ where we finally seeing a real Julia the general public can warm to.<br /><br />"outrage, one can only suspect it is confected"<br /><br />Of course it is. What they're upset about is the sympathetic light Australia's worst PM is being shown in.arnoreply@blogger.com
