All these people talking about how bad aussie sitcoms are why don\’t you ask yourself \”why\”? They are so bad because Australia doesn\’t produce many sitcoms. I doubt you could name 5.

On the other hand we produce decent comedy shows such as angry boys. summer heights high, spicks and specs, we can be heroes, the footy show (both nrl and afl are funny)… There is so many.

Sitcoms are an american/british thing imo. Australia never got on the bad wagon and I\’m thankful for that.

Britain wins that one hands down tho.. seinfeild and all those can never match monty python.

Always amusing to criticise the Americans – must say, when I visited the US I realised that their states and cities are so varied that you might as well be in different countries. I found the people very warm and helpful, much different than the touristy stereotypes you come across outside of US

Enjoyed the article

Don’t forget that Americans are hugely stupid. Their education is just HORRIBLE.

Very funny (and informative) article! I’ve never been outside the US, but I love hearing how our country measures up against others. Thanks!

I think both countries are equal, there are differences yes, but we share a lot which is nice! I’m an American, I love my country, though I would like to live in Australia or Canada if I were older and could afford it!

@Jimbob – pretty sure he’s a troll, don’t let it bother you. Also, I’d give Australia the win just for the term ’seppo’ – greatest stealth insult ever.

Btw, I don’t think I could name a single Aussie sitcom. Australian comedy in general isn’t much good, though our stand-ups aren’t bad.

I have to agree that British sitcoms are much better than American ones and I’ve never seen an Australian sitcom before. I guess I’ll have to look one up. :p

Most of the shows coming out now in America are mostly reality television shows about whatever topic the producers just pulled out of a hat. :\

This article is stupid and so are the rest of you people trying to compared two different countries to see which is best you should be ashamed of yourselves. There are wars in this world because poeple refuse to get over differences. Oh an article written by an australian and the suspense was killing me I honestly thought the aussie might let america win…PPFT! yeah right! I don\’t care what anybody says, thinks or writes about america I will always be proud to be an american. I love that the rest of the world don\’t like us ask any american and they\’ll tell you they don\’t care either!! GOD BLESS THE USA

A very humorous and interesting article! Although I must disagree when it comes to the military. I think having a citizenry who is active in the military is a good thing. Not for war, but defense. And on the spending point, social program spending trumps military spending.

I do eat like a barbarian though, haha. Why on earth would I want to eat with my non-dominant hand? If the food is easy enough to cut, I will just cut it with the fork and eat it like that.
