Did anyone watch the modern Kingswood country in about 1997, wasn't too bad the first season but the 2nd season was rubbish and got canned, still nothing like the orginal.

Bullpit.
Only lasted one season - 16 episodes.
Even that was too long.
Thankfully, this was the last sitcom Gary Reilly ever got up.
It was crap. It tried to appear like it was still politically incorrect, whilst carefully not being. A good recipe for boring as hell. Should have stuck to what worked instead of worrying about the PC mob potentially complaining, might have been worthwhile then.Brad-clare said:
Kingpin said:Yeah Ted was living in a retiremement home or something, and had a hot looking grand-daughter that was always there from memory.
It was woeful.
The Grand Daughter was good!!
Never talked about Bruno, Greta or Craig, yes could and should have been a lot better!
What about the greyhounds, Repco Lad and Gay Akubra!
and the time Royalty (Graham Kennedy) visited Wombat Crescent and they gave him a slab of Pal Dog Meat for dinner!
I agree that Thelma not returning from her Woman's Day Holiday she won really caused the show to go downhill.
Kingswood Country was when Australian Television was Australian. Sadly those days are outnumbered and shows like this will never be made again.
I've got the first box set and looking forward to purchasing Volume 2 (3 Disc Set) next!

Yeah I was watching it earlier today.
Really gotten hooked on the show on the last couple of months on Foxtel, great Aussie comedy.
I've only seen a couple of the episodes without Thelma, Bruno's mum got on my nerves a bit with that fake Greek accent in those ones but keen to see the rest of them.
A Ted Bullpitt night comin up tonight!!!! Think the marathon goes til midnight.

Sensational show.
Have really gotten into this.
Have the first box set, defintitely get the next box set at some stage.
Shame they won't produce a show like this these days.

I would love to get all of the first 60 episodes of this show.
Bruno asks a question to Ted after Thelma told Bruno that ted knew all the answers to the questions on Sale of the Century.
'What state is Canberra in?'
'Bloody shambles. I win, you lose, I'm the king of the castle'
Ted to Bruno while cooking his eggs for breakfast. 'Don't put spaghetti in it'.

This week on Where Are They now they are reuniting the cast of this great show, will be worth the watch.
