You know what's more entertaining than The Shire? Reading about it on the Twitters...
Now, we at Time Out did not watch The Shire last night – we were either too worried it wouldn't live up to our high expectations or too busy catching up on recorded eps of Being Lara Bingle waiting on our DVRs, you decide.

So, here it is, what Twitter had to say about Channel Ten's new Laguna-style reality series...

Have just had what I'm calling "The Shire talk" with my daughter. Began with "Now, let this be a lesson to you..." #TheShire #theshiretv

#TheShireTV Mayor Carol Provan has told @B105LSA the show is a "joke" and the girls look like "the Kardogians" (Kardashians?) #NewsRoom

This program does not represent The Shire whatsoever. Just listening to those two girls makes me feel sick. I won't be watching the next episode. Pure trash.
