Has anybody caught this Australian show on Netflix? I'm almost done with the first season (there's only 6 episodes, but my wife hates it so I have to find time when she's not around) and have been laughing my ass of the entire time. The show is set in an alternate 60's where an international team of spies must try to stop Hitler and the Nazis. It does a marvelous job of playing with all of the cheesiness of spy shows from that era, complete with obvious miniatures and bad audio dubbing. Oh, and the second episode has the team fighting Dr. Mengele and his army of Nazi dinosaurs.

I'm almost through with the second season, which takes place during the 80's. Everything that made the first season ridiculous is amped up quite a bit, and there's a lot of cocaine use. While Hitler is still the main antagonist, Nikita Khrushchev also shows up as another villain.
Best line from season 2: "Let's show this commie piece of shit how we treat commie pieces of shit!"

The show is also the source of some of my favorite animated gifs

I've seen this show scanning through stuff to watch and wondered if it was any good. I'll have to check this one out now that you're pimping it.
