Closing out the first season of what might very well be only a two season life span, Thank God You're Here takes on five performers for the finale. Shaun Micallef, Angus Sampson, Frank Woodley, Kate Langbroek and Akmal Saleh making up the player's list for the game.
Micallef starts the show off strong as a foreign minister with the look that everything to him is foreign. Even the English language. Quick and always working his magic and skill, Sampson deftly delivers another stand out performance. His ability to just lose himself in the situation and become the master of the scene is excellent and awe inspiring for quick thinking.
Woodley hammers up an insane Irish accent lost in a gold rush era family where they're not all up there. Mentions of possible hallucinations at one point coming in to cover Woodley's wide ranging passion for everything on and off the stage.
Langbroek is where it all tans George Hamilton. The standard from the first three is hard to follow and there isn't much to impress. It's a walk in the park of boredom where the ducks are chewing disdain and a lacklustre coat of feathers is the result.
Saleh steers it back only as best as he can. Floundering as a more than obscene and dangerous clown.
The all-in group challenge is weak on a whole. Parts are great, but there's maths at play and it's a downhill run from the first opening door for the show. Overall, a pretty standard and entertaining show as it has been for the episodes thus far.
