Synopsis: Irreverent sketch comedy series.

QUOTES & REVIEWS:

"Extremely popular amongst Australian TV fans in particular and comedy devotees in particular, Flipside offered a potpourri of zany sketches, music, monologues, and mockumentaries. The talented ensemble cast served up a bizarro world in which the normal was abnormal and vice versa. Though many of the segments were cleverly scripted, just as many more were spontaneous and off-the-cuff. Telecast by Australia's ABC network, the first of Flipside's seven half-hour episodes was seen on May 4, 2002." ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

“Flipside is a clever adaptation of the sketch comedy tradition” The Australian

“…a talented group of young Australians, Flipside consists of comedy sketches presented in a fresh, irreverent style” TV Week

“Flipside is fresh, often clever…” Who Weekly

“…a mix of melancholia and humour designed to make viewers squirm as well as laugh” The Age, Green Guid
