Yesterday the ABC announced its 2021 programming slate. There were cute and awkward pieces to camera by ABC talent and management, and despite comedian Wil Anderson’s quips about wringing ‘blood from a stone’, and Sean Micallef’s estimation that each episode of Mad as Hell costs ‘about $40 to make’, the public broadcaster is managing to look pretty good for the year ahead.
ABC Comedy is being relaunched as ABC TV Plus from 1 January 2021, and will encompass Australian comedy, religion, science, natural history documentaries, and the arts.
