Good News Week/YMMV

"Paul: Ha ha, I hope the kids have gone to bed."
 * Acceptable Targets: Everybody. Nerds, old people, racists, birdwatchers, everybody. Once, a story involved an elderly African woman, and Paul joked, "I don't know whether to be ageist, racist or sexist."
 * The people with the biggest targets on their heads include Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga and Tony Abbott.
 * Big Lipped Alligator Moment: Tim Minchin singing while Jimeoin left to use the toilet.
 * Crosses the Line Twice: As with Dead Baby Comedy, Paul and Mikey thrive on it, and basically everything Akmal Saleh and Tom Gleeson says crosses at least three or four lines.

"Paul: Every week you're Lady Gaga. Mikey: Actually the weird thing is, I found that really hot. And I'm dressed as a hot dog. What has my life become?!"
 * In the 2010 premiere, Paul tried to put a stop to these jokes. In two minutes, Akmal Saleh said 'We fuck camels'. You can imagine how the rest of the night went.
 * One episode, Paul and Mikey spent a few minutes discussing sticking platypi in a blender. Started off just jokingly saying it, then crossing the line by using the phrase 'pleading eyes', then back over by complaining about how the beak gets stuck in the blades.
 * Dude, Not Funny: Paul had this reaction to himself when he almost did an impression of Stephen Hawking.
 * Fetish Fuel - Most things Claire wears for Strange But True.


 * Memetic Mutation: An internal example with "jet sparrow". An offhand joke by Paul turned into Claire mentioning an Unusual Euphemism used by her father, and no-one would let it go throughout the entire episode. At the end of the 2008 season, the mock awards presented were called the Jet Sparrow Awards.
 * They Changed It, Now It Sucks: Claire took over as team captain from Julie McCrossin, who did not sign on for the revived series. Of course, the purists declared the show to be Ruined FOREVER.
 * After just one episode, Good News World is already copping Ruined FOREVER flack in responses from Twitter and the official site.
 * Good news World appears to have led to the demise of the show entirely.
