I’m trying to download, archive, and upscale as much older Australian TV content as I can, and would love to see what other people watched or enjoyed so I can try to preserve it as well.

Let the Blood Run Free

A pisstake of A Country Practice. Comedic gold adapted to TV after an improv theatrical run.

A phone-in Choose Your Own Adventure style narrative from show to show, was cutting edge interactivity in the 90s.

Greatest Aussie show ever (yes, I know Big Gig, D-Gen, Late Show and DAAS were a thing).

Do yourself a favour and search out some episodes on your favourite video services.

(* I saw Peter Rowsthorn in Fremantle on the street, and I was too slow to shout out a "W W W W Warren")

I remember it being over the top gross and phoning in after every episode.

So hilariously and ridiculously gross. The fake blood cost must have been half the show budget!
