And soon, that number is going to go up to 15 in total, as an Australian remake of the series is coming out next month, with Prime Video dropping the first trailer for the mockumentary yesterday. There’s just one slight problem, which is that it is one of the most painfully unfunny things I’ve seen in a g…
