Bad Ancestors(2024)

Bad Ancestors is a comedy anthology entry in Fresh Blood, an Australian television series that premiered on ABC in May 2016. Created by Wendy Mocke, Rizcel Gagawanan, Jessica Magro and Vanilla Tupu, the episode functions as a potential pilot for a full series. Fresh Blood showcases short comedies from emerging Australian writers and directors, each exploring different characters and scenarios. Bad Ancestors uses humour to examine family dynamics and generational conflict through an irreverent lens. Like other Fresh Blood entries, it was developed as a proof-of-concept for broader television potential, offering audiences a glimpse into the creative vision of its makers while contributing to the anthology's mission of championing new Australian comedy talent.
