— Review of Get Krack!n 2017 series - publisher film/TV
'How could Get Krack!n possibly take it any further? After all, the first season of the breakfast TV satire had seen Kate McLennan and Kate McCartney – its Caucasian, at-sea female hosts (played by themselves) – eat human faeces on-air for Aboriginal reconciliation.'

'It’s 3 am. “An hour usually reserved for pissing with your eyes closed,” Kate McLennan says in a sparkly voice while sitting bolt upright in bed next to co-host Kate McCartney. Time to Get Krack!n. Cue the buzzy theme music (think kazoo crossed with a mosquito) and a TV montage of the Kates “kidding around” in stilettos, skin-tone stockings, and boxy block-coloured mini dresses. Measly clapping starts up off-camera and the Kates step out, as if for the first time, onto the set of their very own morning show.' (Introduction)
