It would honestly be a mercy to Ballard to can the show ASAP. He needs to be doing, I don't know, musical theatre or something - anything - other than terrible delivery of terribly written topical political humour.
Surely it can't be rating highly? Oh look, this review of the show, by someone who actually likes it, indicates that it is tanking so badly that even Ballard is making jokes about it:
In fact he wished he had the ratings for The Ghan instead of the 70,000 or so he is attracting. Understandable.And even that reviewer complains about this:
“I don’t know why I’m talking to this, nobody’s watching,” he joked at one point.
If I have any early criticism, it is the prolific F-bombs dropped throughout the show. Not because I am offended by them, but because they distract. Yes I get that it’s cool to swear on ABC because you can, but language is better used for dramatic effect. If the audience is just waiting for the next one to drop, there is a risk we miss what’s being said in between.Kill the show, ABC. I'll keep complaining until you do.
