Low Rent Celebs/Breakfast Radio Lightweights/Late Night TV Mega Stars
Tim Ross and Merrick Watts have come a long way since starting out doing pub comedy together in 1996.
Merrick & Rosso are now amongst the biggest names in Australian entertainment with sell-out stand up tours, syndicated radio programs, network TV shows, CDs, a book and a DVD on their resume.
In 2001 they made Australian radio history, being the first voices on Sydney's NOVA 969. Their daily best of program is heard in every capital city and their weekly best of program is played across regional Australia. Merrick and Rosso have been named Best On Air Team three years in a row at the Commercial Radio Awards.
In 2006 Merrick and Tim returned to the live stage with The Unprofessionals. More than 10,000 people packed into Sydney's Enmore Theatre for a sold out run. The show featured Merrick and Rosso's patented blend of two-handed stand up, dicey dancing, a too hot for TV gameshow and some very cool original animation. 2007 will see the boys tour the show nationally with dates confirmed at the Adelaide Fringe and Melbourne Comedy Festivals with dates for Perth and Brisbane to be announced.
