    Fantastic!!

    Lano and Woodley rule! If you're a fan of physical comedy you HAVE to check these guys out. Too often you see a show labeled physical comedy that just isn't funny. In fact, apart from silent comedians like Buster Keaton, I could only say Mr. Bean was the only other physical comedian to make me laugh. Lano and Woodley are modern day geniuses. Their show is full of hilarious slapstick, outrageous stunts, and clever dialouge.

    I believe series one was slightly better, but everything they're in is hilarious. My personal favourite episodes are "The Wall" and "Star Search". You MUST check them out.

    Ten out of Ten!

    I'm stumbled across them like Author: Mike Carroll from Dublin, Ireland did

    Me and a friend were talking about comedians one night on msn, and she was talking the comedy festival gala. I had never seen any comedians before the gala and remember quite fondly these 2 guys where 1 of them wound tape around the other guys head and that stuck in my head cause i thought what a bastard!! and poor guy how did he breathe!! I was told that was lano and woodley. And i said that they had a show on the comedy channel the following wk, so i decided to watch it and loved it so I tuned in the following wk. Unfortunately I only got to see one simple task, game show god, and i love you baby pt 1. And i thought they were good.

    And one day when i was booking a ticket to see Carl Barron, i saw that l&w were coming to Brisbane for The island so i booked a ticket to see them, and ended up going another 2 times (to see it being filmed), and then after watching them on rove, decided to see them at the Opera house another 3 times....definitely worth the money flying all the way down there!!! In Sydney, it was even funnier which was great. And I have watched the dvds soo many times that i need to buy new ones. Thats how good they are!!!!!

    Brilliant!

    These guys are the best comedians in the world today. Sort of a Jim Carrey meets Buster Keaton duo. The direction is top notch (Bob Spiers of Fawlty Towers and Mandy Smith of Heartbreak High) and the comedy fast, inventive and very funny.

    THE Funniest Show to hit the screens.

    What can I say? I laughed so hard I nearly Puked I really did. This show gives people the chance to see how good Australian Comedy can be. The fact that the ABC happen to have this means 30 minutes of uninterrupted laughs. Go Lano and Woodley!

    • Quotes

      Frank: You know, the actor guy! Oh, what is his name? See, the thing is... the thing is... the thing is that when I say his name, you'll go, 'YES! The actor guy, love him, adore him... ' But I can't think of his name. It's on the tip of my tongue. You know who I mean - he's got the hair... the eyes... a bit of a nose... and a mouth and it's all held together with... like a FACE!
