Hi Mike. Great reaction! Agro was filmed in my home town, Brisbane, Queensland. The puppeteer was Jamie Dunn. He did television and radio for many years. Stay cool mate!
It was a kids show, but these unaired outtakes made it onto a VHS tape and were given to staff at the 1993 channel 7 Christmas party. Wasn't long before pirate copies spread through the country like wildfire. My mum's friend obtained a copy and played it at a BBQ the following year. There is also a fantastic interview from just a couple of years ago worth checking out, with Agro, and the puppeteer Jamie Dunn, along with one of the hosts Holly Brisley. It's called (Agro & Holly Brisley Reunite Studio 10)
And people wonder why my generation of Australians have the sense of humor that we do lol. These bloopers never made it to air but going back and looking at some of the stuff that did.....yeah.....i can only imagine the pearl clutching and karen strokes there would be if anything like this was to be aired for kids today
Agro was my childhood. He made it into the news a few times for innuendo, being bullied by Anne-Marie (coz she hit him a lot), and that last bit with the dog traumatised many kids.I'm sure there were more, but that's just what I remember.
Grew up watching Agro, he's a right little sh*t but he made us all laugh, parents as well. I remember being told often that I had no idea what I was laughing at. 🇦🇺
Jamie Dunn is the voice of Agro & he is very, very, very quick witted !!!!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agro_(puppet). Here is some info on the life of Mr Aggro Vation.
I remember watching this as a kid, although, of-course, most of this was edited out, being out-takes, some of it made it through. Although, I never remembered it being this raunchy, I do remember Ann-Maree hitting Agro, but he thoroughly deserved every slap he got 👀👍❗️On a side note, if every woman in this world was as cute as Ann-Maree, I'd be happy 👀👍❗️
I just saw an ad on facebook for an up coming live show with Agro and Ranger Stacey. He is coming back due to the millions of views these clips are getting, so hopefully he may end up back on TV. Glad you've had a taste of life in OZ in the 80's Mike, this was on at 4: 30 in the afternoon when the kids got home from school. Oh for the good old days.....
Try looking up hey hey it’s Saturday a character called Dickie knee I’ll send you a few links. Adult agro was hysterical and I’m happy you found it amusing. Poor Anne Marie she was a good sport xox
I used to watch agro as a kid I love him even though he's a puppet he's so funny I used to get up at 6.30am in the morning to watch him I could not stop laughing in today's watching you wouldn't be able to see it now because of the swearing and stuff so you go agro and Big Mike thanks for putting this on its brighten my day
