Mike King Tonight - Final Episode
Television (Full Length Episode) – 2003
Popular comedian Mike King tried his hand at a Letterman-style talk show with this relatively short-lived TV2 series. In this final episode King’s guests are TV personality Jason Gunn, McLeod's Daughters actor Lisa Chappell, kickboxer Ray Sefo, and Australian comedy writer Santo Cilauro, who talks about working with the late Bruno Lawrence on TV series Frontline. One-time Commodores bassist Ronald LaPread leads the eight-piece house band.
I do look back at the tapes that you've shown me and thought yea, no I'd look at that and think what was I on? But in all honesty I sit here and it's just called being 18, a network saying "hey, you're kinda funny. Go do that on telly." and I did it. Perhaps ran on adrenaline a bit too much.– Jason Gunn
