The Librarians
I’m sure everyone’s heard of this The Librarians thing on the ABC. I hope it lives up to the hype. Here’s a review and feel free to comment with your own reviews.
The Librarians also dabbles with a few social hot potatoes, but with slightly less malice than from Ja’mie or Mr G. Unlike Chris Lilley’s dark mockumentary these are clearly actors doing schtick

As a bit of an aside – I only saw part of this week’s episode so can’t comment fully…...
This show sparked some general conversation my way about Images of Librarians in Popular culture. We came up with some interesting ones and some that I hadn’t come across and am now keen to investigate further. Myself, I have a very soft spot for Giles on Buffy – dry British humour, amazing tomes of mythology (some of it subversive which was hidden from the Watchers Council) and yet, somehow, he connected with the youngsters of Sunnydale High. I suppose it also helped that Anthony Stewart Head was easy on the eye…to mine anyway
And it amused me greatly that someone here decided to go looking for information, and of course, discovered an entry on Wikipedia actually called Librarians in Popular Culture…..
