Australian TV shows airing in USA?

[Funky Dude]

Hi all. In Australia we have TV shows from a few countries particularly from UK and USA. Anyhow while we have our own shows like:
The Footy Show (variety/comedy show that's football related)
Neighbours (my favourite soap opera)
Home & Away
Wheel Of Fortune (Australia)
Catch Phrase
White Collar Blue
Burke's Backyard
Comedy Inc
Big Brother (Australia)
Rove Live
Countdown (my favourite 70s/80s Aussie pop music show featuring the guru of Aussie rock "Molly Meldrum" :D )
Blue Heelers
Harry's Practice
etc...
and lots of footy games from Rugby to AFL

our free-to-air and pay TV networks are very dominated by American shows (some good, some bad) such as:
Seinfeld
Judge Judy
Jerry Springer Show (piss funny watching whackos making complete dickheads of themselves :lol: )
Oprah
Dr Phil
Dawson's Creek (bunch of airheads going through constant stupid makeup-breakup relationships)
MASH (GREAT comedy classic)
Law & Order
Charmed
Days Of Our Lives (I call it "Days of our drearies" as the actors are always miserable :cry: everytime I see the show when my mum's friends are watching it)
Young & The Restless (more people who are usually miserable :cry: and not having a good time and are always serious)
Bold & The Beautiful (people are usually miserable but seen a good time or two on it once in a blue moon)
World's Wildest Police Chases
Simpsons (that cartoon has always been piss funny and great to watch :D )
South Park
Late Night With Conan O'Brian (Conan is a legend :D )
Hawaii 5-0 (fantastic cop show "Book 'em Danno!" :D )
Mission Impossible (these old spy/cop shows are fantastic :D )
Starsky & Hutch (yet another great cop show :D )
6 Million Dollar Man (another great cop show with a science fiction twist :D )
Hogan's Heros
Land Of The Giants
Brady Bunch
Beverly Hillbillies (These hicks really know how to make people piss themselves laughing :D :lol: )
X-Files
Crossing Over With John Edwards (my mother's favourite show :D )
Star Trek
Rawhide [WHIP-CRACK!!!!] :lol: :lol: :lol:
Saturday Night Live
WWF Wrestling [+ many other American sports shows]
Xena Warrior Princess
Frasier
Married With Children (Al Bundy the American yobbo is the highlight of the show, his lifestyle is THE COMEDY of the show :lol: :lol: :lol: )
etc..............
And stacks and stacks and stacks of movies and cartoons.

It's hard to believe that Soul Train doesn't air in Australia despite the fact that our networks mostly air American shows.

Anyhow I was wondering if any Australian TV shows get airplay on the American free-to-air and cable TV networks. If so how many and what sort?

Just curious to find out how popular Aussie shows are on American television.

Well, a local station aired the 70s satire series Funky Squad a few years ago...

Funky, the only shows I know of are on the 'Discovery' and 'Animal Planets' cable or Satellite channels, they are nature shows with that crazy Zoo keeper guy that likes to play with full grown life gators, and on the 'animal planet' there is this other guy that goes around the south pacific chasing wild snakes and bugs and testing his good luck, he's kind of funny to watch after a close call, I can't remember their names now.

I can't believe they like Conan in Australia, he's getting better with time, last night's show with Bob Costas and sweet Rachel Weisz was hilarious.

How embarrasment.

Do you guys get 'The Secret Life of Us' (or 'The Pointless Life of Us' as I prefer to call it) in the US? It's filmed just down the road form where I live, St Kilda, Melbourne...

Some classic Aussie shows which I love: Prisoner CBH, Sons & Daughters, Number 96.... vile!

A lot of the shows Funky mentioned are really spew-worthy. :P
