WHAT A WEEK! If State Of Origin Game 2 isn’t enough, there’s an incredible list of other new shows starting up this week. The premiere of Mabo on Sunday is an amazing telemovie documenting the life of Eddie Mabo starring Jimi Bani and Deborah Mailman. Tim Allen’s new sitcom Last Man Standing premieres on free-to-air television on Channel 10 and it’s not bad – not great, but not bad. Myf Warhurst’s Nice, all about 80’s pop culture, starts on Wednesday, as does the UK comedy Life’s Too Short starring Warwick Davis and Ricky Gervais. Andrew Gunsberg appears on ABC1 with Photo Finish and Hamish & Andy’s Euro Gap Year kicks off on Thursday too – will it improve on last year’s US Gap Year?

Oh, and Being Lara Bingle premiere’s this week. You decide.
