''Kinne'' is an Australian sketch comedy series by comedian Troy Kinne.
The series is best known for sketches that are essentially a hypothetical ListOfTransgressions that everyday people wish they could say or do but don't out of politeness. Other memorable sketches include Impromptu Lifeguard, The Actual Bachelor and a [[Series/ManVsWild Bear Grylls]] spoof.
The series originally ran from 2014 to 2015, before going on hiatus and being revived in 2019 as ''Kinne Tonight''.
! List of Tropes Kinne Loves to Use:
* AwesomeAussie: Subverted by Impromptu Lifeguard, who is completely useless.
* BeAWhoreToGetYourMan: One segment of The Actual Bachelor has the titular bachelor get his date to close her eyes so he can surprise her with a rose. To his surprise, she tries to deepthroat it before opening her eyes and realising what he was actually giving her. The sketch ends with the actual bachelor kicking himself for not trying for a blowjob.
* ComedicSociopath: The beach episode of The Actual Bachelor takes a turn for the dark when one of the contestants drowns. The actual bachelor is relieved to find out it was a girl he was planning to dump anyway.
* EverythingIsRacist:
** Sketches involving Asian-Australian comedian Ronny Chieng typically involve Kinne being too timid to mention the appearance of an Asian person in moments when it would be least offensive i.e. playing an Asian version of Guess Who and identifying a mugger.
** A game show called Who Wants to be Offended involves three contestants finding offense in every single thing. Even the word "black" is enough to offend one (non-black) woman.
* {{Manchild}}: One TopTenList shows all the annoying things men do that gradually cause their girlfriends to dump them. These include jumping to touch anything hanging overhead or arraging fruit in a supermarket to look like male genitals.
* MilesGloriosus: The Impromptu Lifeguard loves bragging about his conveniently offscreen acts of heroism. Usually an actual lifeguard or someone who was involved in the incident he was describing will call him out on his bullshit.
* PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad: Who Wants to be Offended and [=WokeDonalds=] both run with this.
* RomanceOnTheSet: In the final episode of The Actual Bachelor, he realises that the woman he liked the most wasn't actually a contestant, but the make-up girl.
* SelfDeprecation: The entire series is essentially Troy Kinne saying that Australian men are lazy, immature and vain, with himself as a glowing example.
* SickeningSweethearts: One sketch revolves around a man who starts talking in an insufferably cutesy tone once he gets a serious girlfriend. By the end of the sketch he's broken up with his girlfriend and has reverted back to a normal speech pattern...but is now too cynical to be around.
* SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion: The No-Rhyme Rap.
* TakeThat: Bear Grylls will rehydrate himself with his own urine, but throws up if he has even one bite of a 7-Eleven chicken roll.
* TemptingFate: One RunningGag is about a man who makes ridiculous wagers based on things that seem to ludicrous to ever happen...but have already happened. Everytime he does this, it cuts to him suffering the consequences of his bet while making ''another'' similarly idiotic bet.
* ThisLoserIsYou: Just about every sketch involves men in their 20s and 30s either saying inappropriate things or making fools of themselves in ways the audience can relate to.
* TopTenList: The list-based sketches either open with a title card or have Kinne himself give an introduction.
