‘The Feed’ Have Created A Comedy Special Called ‘Cancelled’ And It’s Very Silly
The Feed takes a deep dive and entirely satirical look the scandals that brought a nation to its knees. (But kind of not really.)
The Feed kids are back with a comedic countdown of Australia’s forgotten [read: fictional] cancellations.
The Feed team were taken off the weekly deadline, given a bit of cash, and told to make whatever they liked. Living the Australian media dream.
Reading is primarily for sickos and losers, but next on the Cancelled Countdown, we have the novel that Australia banned: All The Bodies in the Well.

Think one of those old television countdown shows with the kitch graphics and talking heads. Don’t remember? Not a Boomer? It was essentially free-to-air TV’s bread and butter from the 1970s until streaming took the value out of Friday night viewing. A pithy host (in this case, former Wheel of Fortune host John Burgess) would punctuate the stories in between graphics! Skits! Good times!
And finally, at the top spot, those outrageous princes of pop who got a whole nation reaching for their fainting couches — it’s TLDR.

The Feed‘s faux countdown takes a slightly obsessive look into some entirely fictitious and truly absurd scandals, including a failed prank that explains the mysterious disappearance of Australia’s 17th prime minister, Harold Holt.
And it’s available for you to watch right now on SBS Demand.
