Get Krack!n' - the new show from the creators of The Katering Show

Episode 1 went to air in Australia last night, airs every Wednesday at 9:30pm. It's a sassy take on morning TV, but they're still in character as the Katering Show Kates.
Aussies can re-watch on ABC iView here.

It was apparently meant to stream on "Seeso" in the States on the 21st of September, but NBCU have axed the service? No word yet on whether or not they've found a new US host.

They are so great. I've probably watched the The Katering Show 3 times over now. Can't wait to see this. Hope they can find a decent platform for the US.

Watched it last night (after the brilliant cross promo with Micallef too).

It goes even deeper into the 'self-loathing and existential terror trying to be a modern woman who has it all' thing. I can see this format having a rich vein of that to mine.

I just watched via a VPN because I couldn't wait. I think I had the wrong idea from the trailer, this is actually a full-on satirization of morning TV. Totally brilliant and hilarious.

Fun episode. I think I prefer the format of Katering, but the Kates' sense of humour has definitely remained intact, and there's a lot of great gags.

"Why do you think you don't sleep McCartney?"

"Because I have a child and the world is on fire."

"Wrong, it's because you have too many books on your bedside table."

"Right! I do!"

Overall I thought the first episode was good. The toilet paper clip had me rolling.

It's bloody brilliant, and I'm glad people outside of Australia are finally seeing our humour and understanding it. The Kate format is such a good way of poking fun at the existential crisis that many women face but also throw in some jabs to the morning TV show format that we all loathe. Love it.

The Asian segment was funnily savage.

The one thing I don't like is the fake "unprofessional" nature of it. Like it sort of makes sense for a Youtube show because they can be jank anyway, but if this is supposed to be a "live" television show, they probably would have all been fired on the first day. I know it's a petty complaint, but it just sort of ruins the illusion - I'd rather they just play it straight, since it'd be a lot more interesting if they had to keep character all the time.

I agree. I think it would be better if they played it straight. When the show has them going off on tangents, falling asleep, randomly walking off set, and sitting there texting, it takes me out of it quite a bit. (not to mention deliberately making the animations "funny" (the dripping blood above the eyelid, which you'd never see in a real news show) and the absurd messages in the chyron like the Shit! calendar, calm and white, cunt, etc.)

Still think the show is pretty funny though.

I missed the second episode. How do I watch this online at a resolution above the default Potato quality stream from iView?

I checked the website we all go to for Game of Thrones. No deal.

Alright, I just finished watching all of The Katering Show.

Holy shit, it was fantastic. Exactly the kind of humor I'm into, sat down and watched all of season 2 and it's supplementary vids in a single sitting.

Wish I would of known about it sooner.
