As promised, boys ‘n’ girls, here are more TV listings. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that Quokka University has its own TV network–but I’ll let Byron the Quokka explain.
[Enter, laughing] G’day! Don’t ask me how we got all those TV shows–I don’t know, and I don’t want to know. Just enjoy the listings–and if anyone asks, I haven’t been here today.

Wow, Byron, you are really on it.
Hilarious! Even the casting! Well done, Byron.
Good job Byron. You picked a good cast.

That makes you a different kind of Marxist.
