Big news. Big, great, awesome news.

We're all going to get fisted*. And I'm not talking about... yeah I'm not gonna go there.

Double The Fist is coming back. (I had a whinge about this ages ago, when this blog was only a wee tacker.)

For those unawares, Double The Fist (or DTF for us fans) is an Aussie comedy - cross between the Goodies and Jackass. Although it's more a satire of Jackass and pretty much every reality TV program there is. Regardless, it was excellent, refreshing, hilarious television. Haven't met anyone who hasn't cackled incessantly whenever I've forcefed it to them. Won an AFI in 2004 for best TV comedy (that was the time the Kath + Kim fans (which is a top show, no disrepect) furrowed their brows and made that huh? sound confused people make when they realise there are awesome shows hardly anyone gets to see because some monkey at the ABC thinks everyone wants to see The freakin' Bill and the same news stories regurgitated from the news to the 7:30 report to Lateline and to hell with anything the elderly might find too crude for them not that I'm bitter or anything.

I think I lost a closing bracket somewhere.

) There she is.

Anyway, atwik, the show is coming back in a second series, as of March this year. (That is, it was announced in March, it doesn't begin in March, if it did then it'd be finished and stuff, so it'll probably be on next year or something.)

The first four episodes are available on DVD at the ABC's remarkably inflated prices.

And, two years (minus 10 days) after they first aired - the ABC will have released the DVD of the second four episodes of the first season.

See, after years of lobbying, complaints, and an online petition, the ABC MIGHT CONSIDER PUTTING A POPULAR AWARD-WINNING CHEAP AUSSIE-MADE COMEDY SHOW BACK ON THE AIR.

Remember - it's your ABC.

So go buy the DVD's (what, like the Liberals aren't going to continue to cut public funding for publically funded institutions like the ABC?) - they rock, and the ABC needs the money, and no one supports Australian talent, and the ABC's make up department struggles to keep Kerry O'Brien's head looking human on a limited budget.

Anyway, cheers to the ABC for not being a stubborn little shit on that one.

I think currently it's shown on Foxtel, but I haven't regressed mentally enough to resort to paying for television other than the involuntary ABC/SBS, so I have no idea on that one.

Bring back the Womp!
