A Letter To Producers Of Australian TV Shows

Dear Australian television industry,

As much as enjoy some of random nuggets of watchable material on the ABC and SBS (mainly documentaries and news programs) I am having an issue with the other 95% of  'entertainment' you are allowing to be programmed to the masses.

Now I understand that the Australian dollar is quite high at the moment (thanks mining industry for taking all our profits offshore) but I beg you, no more shows being shot on location overseas for no reason.
Apart from all being absolute dross, the worst part is all these presenters do the same thing......

  • Walk around famous landmarks and places where the masses congregate.
  • Approach locals and crap on about Australia and tell them about "how much you guys love our accent"
  • Generally just be ignorant, arrogant fucks and bang on about how "one of our dollars could buy half your country lol"
Seriously, we do not need to see Hamish and Andy cracking onto American girls armed with just their accent and some shitty stories about drop bears and how they ride emus to work.

PLEASE STOP

We have enough bogan, ignorant, arrogant wankers flying the Aussie flag abroad without you dickheads giving them a big wad of cash to flash around and generally embarrass us all.

Yours sincerely,
