The Comedy Company(1988)

The Comedy Company is an Australian sketch comedy series that aired on Network Ten from February 1988 to November 1990. Created and directed by Ian McFadyen with Jo Lane as co-director and producer, the show delivered rapid-fire comedy segments in the tradition of earlier Australian sketch programs. Filmed in Melbourne, it became a cultural touchstone for Australian youth, introducing characters and catchphrases that entered the national lexicon. Most notably, the series popularized the term "bogan" in its modern context through the character Kylie Mole, cementing the show's influence on Australian vernacular and comedy for generations to come.
