Man of Steel - The Justice Lease, Episode 1 (by SevereComedy)

With the stress of the upcoming release of "Man of Steel", his latest blockbuster, "Homemaker" Superman (Paul Ayre) really shouldn't have to be relegated to household chores. However, being less popular than Batman (after the success of his Dark Knight trilogy) he's not exactly someone everyone is clamouring to be saved by at the moment.  It could be worse. He could be Aquaman.  Having been exiled from Atlantis after it became a democracy, Aquaman (Dave Eastgate) left the sea and joined the Justice Lease in Australia. Unfortunately powers like "superfast swimming" and "talking to marine reptiles" are largely redundant on land and render him effectively useless on the crime fighting front. So now he's battling depression and self-worth issues. He looks up to Batman, and hopes that one day he could be an extra in the next Batman movie. Batman (Andrew Steel) is like the absentee father figure... and Superman hates it. He effortlessly picks up women as he spends the day fighting crime, a job Superman believes he is infinitely better at. Superman believes that if he didn't have to do all the cooking and cleaning, he could do a much better job of saving the world than Batman. He's just not the one the public want to see. The Man of Steel movie should change that.  The Hulk (James Shepherd) is caught amidst these embattled egos as he struggles to solve his radiation problem. He couldn't really care less who gets to go out and stop crime on a daily basis, as long as his meals are provided and no one makes him angry. He doesn't like himself when he's angry.

Thanks to our friends at Punchline DVD and Beyond Home Entertainment we have one of the best prizes in the history of prize to giveaway to our facebook, tumblr and twitter fans. 

According to wikipedia A Country Practice is the third most successful program in the history of the Logie Awards having won 29 awards during its twelve years of production. It wasn't just your average soap opera, it covered topical issues such as youth unemployment, suicide, drug addiction, HIV/AIDS and terminal illness as well as indigenous Australians and their place in modern society. Pretty heavy stuff for the 80s & early 90s. It may have also been the first show on Australian TV who's most popular character was a wombat (there are no statistics backing this up, but come on, who doesn't love Fatso?!). 

We are now giving you the chance to return to Wandin Valley and relive this classic Australian drama - we've got 5 "A Country Practice Seasons 1-6: The Early Years" to giveaway. 

To enter simply send an email to [email protected] with the subject line "A Country Practice" and tell us in 25 words or less why you want to return to Wandin Valley. 

Have your entries in by 5pm Friday June 7 and we will announce the winners on facebook and twitter on Tuesday June 11.

Jason Alexander on Sunday Night

(Click the images above to view the interview) 

Jason Alexander had the world in stitches as the very popular, and very neurotic, George Costanza across nine successful seasons of Seinfeld. 

On Sunday Night, reporter PJ Madam sits down with Alexander to discover the secrets behind the classic sitcom, including what really happened to the Soup Nazi. Quirky phrases like "double dipping" and "shrinkage" entered the lexicon thanks to Seinfeld - but what happens when Madam asks about being the "master of your domain"?

Seinfeld aside, Alexander has carved out a thirty-year career as an acclaimed actor, singer, comedian and director. But life hasn't always been easy - in this in-depth chat, he reveals the childhood heartache that led him to obesity, and delivers a message to the bullies who tormented in the schoolyard. He finds laughter is the best medicine for life's heartache's, pre-empting whispers about his surprisingly lush head of hair by explaining wiht a chuckle that he decides each morning whether he'll have a hair-free day or not. He's even named his current live show "An Evening with Jason Alexander and his hair".
