The Wedge

The Wedge (2006-2007)

EndedScripted showComedy

The Wedge was an Australian sketch show largely based around autobiographical events from the life of the executive producer, Christina Adams. It has a sketch based format similar to Fast Forward or The Comedy Company. The difference is that nearly all the sketches take place in the same town, so the transition from sketch to sketch often involves a reference to the previous one. Most transitions involve a timelapse shot that takes the audience from one location to another, but sometimes the reference is more direct and seamless. This is used so often, that a sketch based on it was made.
