The D-Generation(1986)

The D-Generation is an Australian sketch comedy series that aired on the ABC from 1986 to 1987, followed by four specials on the Seven Network through 1989. The show became a cultural touchstone for its sharp, irreverent humour and inventive sketches that pushed the boundaries of Australian television at the time. Featuring a rotating cast of talented performers, The D-Generation tackled contemporary politics, pop culture, and social absurdities with wit and satirical edge. Its influence extended far beyond its original run, helping to shape the landscape of Australian comedy and launching the careers of several performers who would go on to prominence in film and television. The series remains a landmark example of 1980s sketch comedy done with intelligence and flair.
