Why he might be annoying:

    He was always the serious one in The D Generation.
    He always portrayed himself as if he was the leader of The D Generation.
    His films stick with the typical 'Aussie battler' storylines.
    When The D Generation broke up, he formed a production group (Working Dog) that only included two other D Gen members.
    He often admits in interviews that his show 'A River Somewhere' was less a doco/TV show and more an excuse for him to go fly-fishing.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was one of the founding members of The D Generation.
    The D Generation comedy troupe probably wouldn't have survived without his professionalism.
    Working Dog is one of the most successful production companies in Australia today.
    His alter ego Warwick Todd is an extremely original and highly successful concept with several top selling books and audio cassettes.
    His 'All Aussie Adventures' program is a Steve Irwin parody.
    He is a talented fly-fisherman.
