This show satirises mainstream media, from "issues of the day" journalism to the society pages (lampooned in the "celebrity sharemarket index" index). No fish is too big or barrel too small. Presenter Jeremy Wells has kept a straight face over seven (at times controversial) seasons, while investigating issues inexplicably missed by other media (the porno made in Taranaki and shot in te reo, the ritalin-fueled reality programme Medswap). EML's seventh season won Best Comedy Programme, at the 2008 Qantas Film and Television Awards.
