That's all I got.

I wouldn't say 'wrecked' the show, but to me it has lost some of its appeal. Along with the irritating intrusive ad breaks every 5 seconds (obviously I am exaggerating it's more like every 10) there seems to be more product placement in series 4 (eg. the Hyatt hotel or whatver it was in the first episode), along with guest stars (Matt Lucas, Eric Bana, Shane Warne etc) with odd roles. I enjoyed the first few series where guest stars were more scarce and it had more of an authentic feel. Now the plots are starting to get a bit unrealistic. (Eg: Kel's inflated ego after he wins 'Business of the Year' and his sausage signing. )
I loved the series when it was on the ABC. Absolutely loved it. But I think moving it to a commercial station has lost some of its shine. I still like it, but no where near as much as I used to. -

This seems to be an ongoing syndrome that irritates me on occasion :
New shows start off on ABC, run a while, get popular - and then it's bye bye ABC "we kinda don't need you anymore". It's not the first time this has happened. After that now the commercial stations are in on the kill.
But hey, after all we all gotta earn our crust I guess.
While I love Kath & Kim, the ads etc. don't bother me - I bought all seasons so far (1-4) on DVD. We never get tired of an episode or two here and there of K&K at our leisure !!
