It doesn't get any funnier than this show. Produced on a budget that wouldn't buy a happy meal from Macca's, this is the most original and hilarious thing I have seen in ages. Violent? Yes. Satirical? Yes. Funny? As. The first series is a satirical take on extreme sports, among other things. The second series is a different animal again, surreal comedy grounded in tatty realism with a healthy dose of full-on digital effects. Do yourself a favor and if you haven't seen it, you unworthy mortal, then do so immediately, and you too may be inspired to earn "Full Fist", and the respect of your peers. This show defies categorization, except to say it's bogglingly funny and "Fistworthy" in the extreme. "Full Fist" from me.

There are shows in the world that are unique to their country of origin. You watch "Yes Minister" & know that's uniquely English. You watch "Friends" & know that it's uniquely American."Double The Fist" is not only uniquely Australian, it's just simply UNIQUE with some of the most off-the-wall humour ever made. Made on an embarrassingly small budget, everything about the show works in the way intended. Each episode follows a basic guideline of the crew having thought of something completely absurd, then The Womp, Rodd Foxx, Tina T & Mephisto interact even more absurdly (& usually violently) with the idea (with Steve Foxx commentating along the way) until most things are destroyed in random acts of violence while earning "Fist".The show quite rightly won the 2004 AFI award for Best Comedy Series. Here's hoping Series 2 can maintain the impetus generated 3 years ago.Highly recommended if you don't mind cheap production & absurdity mixed into a very unique blend.

Hardly anything good comes out of the ABC. Hardly anything Australian, anyway. British comedy, British drama, British documentaries, it's all there. But one fateful Thursday night back in mid-late 2004, my mother called to my attention this show, suggesting it was "Right up my alley". I was automatically interested. Within the first few minutes of viewing, I knew this show was going to be one of my all time favourite shows, sadly cut from ABC's generally lackluster line-up, only to appear on the odd occasion when ABC programming runs out of bird documentaries to run.With an extremely small budget, and a small cast and crew, they managed to pull off the impossible. A balls out, action/comedy fun-fest to rival most other generally dull and generic Australian comedy shows, providing much needed fresh material on Australian airwaves.For the budget, the production values for this show are fantastic. Full 3d effects, unrealistic stunts made realistic, often silly and very painful looking. Full props to the team for producing such a fine show on a limited budget.Anyone that hasn't viewed either DVD (Season 2 finally being released, much to the joy of Fist-Fans), these are definitely worth checking out. With over 3 hours of material on a single DVD, it is definitely jam-packed with pure gold extra features and several hidden extras. Such as a 25 minute documentary on how they make the show, and how you can make your own show too on a limited budget.If you haven't been witness to the fist yet, be warned. You're about to have your unfistworthy life turned up side down, set on fire, and thrown off a cliff. 9/10

an absolute cracker of a show it's a crack up and one of the most original and bloody funny shows i've ever watched an absolute ripper if you haven't seen it you're not fistworthy, the blokes behind the shows are legends.Ever episode was a corker and the special effects make it a one of a kind show, it's great to see some Aussies making high quality original funny shows again, about time and in the ever growing world of reality (bloody boring) television we need shows like double the fist to bring some laughs and actual entertainment back to Australian television. great to see ugly dave in an episode you should have Chad Morgan in an episode he's a funny bloke.and don't get the credit they deserve, now that foxtel's showing it heaps more people have discovered the power of fist. they should make a a fist movie or another series would be tops.full fist!
