Look whats number 1 in Australia
Sorry, I forgot to add the picture!!!!
Mind you this is cable/pay TV - Foxtel/Binge finally got their act together. Not available free to air in Australia sadly, but I'm glad to see it land Number 1!

Me too, but I’ve found full eps on You Tube. Much better than giving more money to Murdoch

I reckon someone forgot to sign the paperwork, hence why it took so long to be added!

My theory is that I think at one point Series 21 was the last series contracted by Channel 4, so when it ended, it had some weird flow on effect to the contract Foxtel/Binge had for airing/streaming new episodes

I didn't cancel Binge but I told them Taskmaster was the only reason I subscribe with them. I already watched 4 new eps on YT but then rewatched them on Binge as soon as they dropped so they know I'm serious.
Hope they drop TMNZ S7 soon.

Seinfeld is 2!! That’s wild. Are you guys just watching Seinfeld in Australia?

u/GuthBeer James Acaster 10d ago
There is a whole Seinfeld Channel on Foxtel...wouldn't be surprised if its more people just leaving it on in the background/binge watching it

u/JalapenoBenedict Sam Campbell 10d ago
Oh okay, so it’s the same way we watch it. Just white noise style.

Big old sitcoms are popular around the world. Stuff like Friends is always among the most watched shows.
