That's right, the only shows that get made are the ones that are the cheapest to make, and that means reality shows 🤮

A great local 20-year-old animation studio in my city had to close down when the quotas were dropped. All that amazing talent has now either moved overseas or to different industries, which I find quite sad. The dropping of local content quotas are huge but unseen blows to our sense of cultural identity, and makes it impossible for locals to cut their teeth in the television industry. Without quotas we may never have got a show like Bluey.
Jim Carrey, Steve Coogan, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Jimmy Stewart, Hugo Weaving, Kristen Wiig, Jemaine Clement, Will Ferrell, Kate McKinnon. Just looking at that list I realise I probably quite like comedy.
This warms my heart
Yikes, you're right. I only just found out about it so I thought it was super current cutting edge news and didn't think to check the date 😬
