As expected they were funny for the first couple of weeks, because it was different.

Beyond that it became more of the same and slowly lost it's audience.

Reckon they sold their soul after leaving Triple j. I heard the rot set in when Merrick was raving on about his new Monaro on Nova one day. Listeners would rather they had stuck with the Datsun 180B image.

Unplanned was good fun. It had no direction and I really enjoy chaotic TV, especially since TV aims for professionalism and Merrick and Rosso, despite being professional gave a scent of tomfoolery.

Great show.

I never watched the B-Team as it different.

They are also doing a bunch of live shows. Tickets can be bought on Ticketek for about $30-$40 I think.

Yeah have a look on the Nova969 website, have a listen to streaming.

They were great when they first started out here in Syd on Nova, but now there a bit overratted and boring.

Since this year I haven't flicked the car stereo onto Nova, thanks to the Edge and the slight revamp of WSFM playlist for the old school tracks.
