What’s the weirdest TV storyline to ever grace our tellies?
We’ve taken a look back at some of Australia’s most iconic shows, and, well… we’d like to know what the scriptwriters had eaten for breakfast the day they came up with these doozies.
Round the Twist: When Pete got pregnant to a tree.
Okay, so Round the Twist wasn’t exactly realistic, but you can’t tell me that a teenager getting preggo to a ‘tree spirit’ isn’t freaking crazy.
My favourite part? He was impregnated after urinating on his tree lover’s base. Perhaps a PSA in disguise to deter male youths from public urination?
Do I also remember correctly that he gave birth to an adorable green baby by burping?
Classic.

Neighbours: The time they tried to be ethnically diverse. And failed epically.
Remember the time Neighbours tried to include people of colour – but ended up implying that Asian people eat family dogs instead?
I swear, the poor Lims could not catch a freakin’ break.
The accents. The outfits. The acting. It’s all so spectacularly bad… but so damn good.
