Channel 7 Are Dicks

I just watched a promo for Up All Night that is premiering on Channel 7, Monday night and stars Will Arnett,  Christina Applegate and Maya Rudolph. 
Apparently Channel 7 don't think us Aussies know who Maya Rudolph is cause when they introduced the actors they referred to Maya Rudolph as "the lady from Bridesmaids". Dead serious, they used the word Lady!
Now come on Channel 7, are you fucking serious? The Lady from Bridesmaids? What an insult. She has a name, it's Maya Rudolph and she is one of the funniest improv actresses out there. If you felt that she is not well known to the Australian population why not introduce her instead? For example.. and this is me not even trying "...and introducing for the first time on the Australia TV, Maya Rudolph." 
But the thing is, you wanted to mention the hit movie Bridesmaids hoping that people would think it was the other funny actress... Kristen Wigg.
Poor effort Channel Seven... poor effort!


Anyway Up All Night is on Monday Nights 9:30pm or until it changes time slots in 3 weeks.

  1. Fuck bro, had a conversation with my wife that followed these exact lines. Channel 7 in particular treat their viewership with contempt. Maya Rudolph is great; pity the show looks to have been shelved after one week

    1. Glad you agree. By the looks of things it has been taken off the air. It's a shame cause the show could've worked here if Channel 7 gave it a chance.
