This is a progression for Australian tv and they are getting the most dated kind of humour for their ‘original’ content. Acropalyse wow. It’s obvious TV execs are struggling with reality tv dying so they are trying to capatilize on youtube channels with big audiences. All of them do the same joke over and over and the ppl that watch them are young ppl who don’t watch tv. Watch the simspons episode where Bart becomes the I didn’t do it boy.
