Season 5 • Episode 20
LatestFull Frontal was an Australian sketch comedy series which debuted in 1993. The show first aired on the Seven Network on 13 May 1993, and finished on 18 September 1997. In 1998 a spin-off of the show moved to Network Ten under the name Totally Full Frontal, losing most of the original cast in the process and finished in 1999. Since 2008, re-runs have begun screening on The Comedy Channel as part of the channel's "Aussie Gold" block of locally made, classic comedy programming.
Acting
Early chaotic brilliance from Bana, Micallef, and Turner.
Writing
Fast, filthy, distinctly Australian sketch work.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
