      Isn't this the show where they had Harry Connick Jr as a guest judge for a blackface act and the episode went viral because Connick was absolutely rigid with mortified shock that this was happening in front of him on national TVhttps://twitter.com/johnpatterson/status/1375616923325501447 …

      Lol and that episode doesn't even make this thread of "The Worst of Hey Hey It's Saturday" I guess that incident was only particularly notable for Americans

      Jfc I remember this, they bullied Kamahl in that segment, even though he wasn't on the show anymore They had a bit where a sketch artist doodled commentary on what was going on and during the blackface act he doodled "Where's Kamahl?" and did a caricature of him

      And then like after Harry Connick Jr had a live freakout onstage all the people connected to the show told the media "Wow I never expected this big shot American to overreact like this to our little joke" and Kamahl just said "This is why I quit It was like this every day"

          Australian culture sort of shamefacedly doesn't talk about how it was fucking awful to do what we did, but still treats Harry Connick Jr. as a self-important prick over it

          Australia has an insidious mindset on racism, in that it's all a joke all the time If you play along, even if you're the butt of the joke, then there's no issue But don't ever raise an issue, bc. it is always a joke It's the perfect culture to never explore your own bigotry

          Harry Connick Jr didn't even have a freakout. He was on a panel judging a skit, the skit was 5 Aussies doing blackface with big afro wigs and lipsyncing Jackson He gave it a zero and said it was disgusting and the response was just utter incredulousness that there was a problem

          Connick didn’t have a “freak out”. It was an erudite sensible calling out of childish shite. Watching that night I thought, fxxx, he’s right
