It charted the formation, rise and eventual demise of a Sydney-based band, the Takeaways.To a certain generation of Australians, it's a Cult Classic - but since it was only screened once, it's little known outside that demographic. All 20 episodes are available on YouTube: start here. | |

A Good Name for a Rock Band: subverted, as almost every name anyone suggests is derided by the others as horrible. The name they wind up with is not better. | |
