Adam Hills in Gordon Street Tonight

Adam Hills In Gordon Street Tonight is an ABC television variety program which focuses on Adam Hills, a stand-up comedian and host, talking with interesting guests and a lot of fun with both them and the audience. Hills talks with a sequence of guests over the course of the program and the earlier guests stay on the stage (as on Parkinson) so that they interact with the later guests. And often the audience. Did I mention the Audience Interaction?

There are also musical acts who often perform live (and mixed to a very good stereo mix, too).

The name of the show comes from the fact that it is one of the ABC's older studio complexes, in Gordon Street in inner Melbourne. The show is currently in its second season.

Adam Hills rose to fame hosting Spicks and Specks, also on the ABC.

Adam Hills In Gordon Street Tonight provides examples of the following tropes:

 * Audience Interaction: The show very much includes the audience, and thrives on putting individuals in embarrassing situations of various degrees. To everyone's amusement. There has even been a marriage proposal.
 * Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Australia's first mass same-sex TV wedding is a cross between this and Crowning Moment of Awesome.
 * Deadpan Snarker: Hannah Gadsby, who has said "she is paid to be a smartarse". She has her own corner of the set from where she watches the show and occasionally interjects to great effect. Sometimes she gets involved with the audience antics.
 * Sammys Glass Eye - alternatively, Adam's (prosthetic) right foot.
 * Wax On Wax Scream: Host Adam Hills underwent a 'boyzilian' (a male Brazilian waxing) - and had it filmed for the programme - after recieving a gift voucher for the procedure from an audience member as a 'show warming gift' on the first episode. It was hilarious.
