Australian Tumbleweeds 2011 – Winner – The “Pissing on Their Legacy” Award

Australian Tumbleweeds 2011 - Winner - The "Pissing on Their Legacy" Award. Ben Elton - Live From Planet Earth (9) - 58.20%. Runners-Up: Chris Lilley - Angry Boys (ABC) - 23.90%, Good News Week morphing into Good News World (10) - 17.90%. Voter Quotes: "We can't entertain friends at our apartment now, lest they see my girlfriend's collection of Ben Elton books on the shelf!" "The saddest thing is, normally I am full of bile toward Channel 9 (and come on, I still am of course), but with Live From Planet Earth I believe the blame has to be laid at Ben's feet." "What makes this particularly appalling is that Elton has already spent two decades defecating on his legacy, so this latest stream of piss has created a nightmare effluent vortex that may permanently dissolve all his good works." Last Year's Winner: Hey Hey It's Saturday (9).
