The Spill Lisa Wilkinson & The Takedown Of TV Golden Girls
On the show today…
After abruptly calling off her Las Vegas residency earlier this year, making international headlines, Adele has returned to the stage of the Colosseum at Ceasar’s Palace. Here’s what went down at her first very tearful performance.
And the first episode of the Kath & Kim retrospective aired last night, but it has been met with very mixed (mainly disappointed) reactions. So now we need to unpack where it all went wrong and why it might have damaged the legacy of this beloved show forever.
Plus, Lisa Wilkinson announced last night that she is leaving The Project. During her announcement, she name-checked a number of high-profile Australian women in media who have also decided to leave their jobs this year and called out the rise in ‘targeted toxicity’. This leads us to talk about why we’re seeing a real thirst for the takedown of TV golden girls.
