Anyone else watch this show on SBS?
Watched my first episode today, found it bizarre but very funny.
For those who don't know it its about the life of a couple and her dog which is actually a man in a suit but he's really dog, but he's really a man in a suit who smokes bongs, loves ciggys and loves taking a dump.
Very bizarre and hard to work out but for those who have missed it SBS are starting the series from scratch Thursday night about 10pm I think.
Also on diwana.org for downloading for those that use bit torrents.

Was a Tropfest finalist a few years back.

A very funny short film.

But it's a bit of a one-note joke that wears thin pretty quickly...

One of the best shows on TV, refreshingly original. I luv the one where the womans old friend and his dog come to stay. Classic!!

Yep same guy, I didn't pick it until you said it and I checked out their pics online though.

Don't mind the Seppo version. Dark, but genuinely funny moments.

Only seen a few eps of the local version, which were pretty good.
Read recently though the guy who plays Wilfred is being sued for damages for an incident from a few years back.

With the season coming to an end on Tuesday, what are people's thoughts?

I thought the last episode was great. It pieced together nicely, but still left some big questions.
