Superwog1 or just simply Superwog, is a comedy duo consisting of two Australian brothers, Theodore (Superwog) and Nathan Saidden. Their YouTube channel consists of various videos including comedies and skits. They have gained over 3 million subscribers and 545 million video views. They have produced a television comedy series based on their YouTube sketch comedies. The series follows Theo, aka "Superwog", his family, and his friend Johnny, getting into all kinds of trouble throughout the Australian suburbia.
Produced by Princess Pictures with production support from Film Victoria, the original series was developed in association with Screen Australia and YouTube through the "Skip Ahead" initiative. The six part series was the first Australian long-form series to be released on YouTube, followed by ABC linear channel, and at its conclusion had reached 14 million people across YouTube alone, with another 1 million plus reached across ABC Comedy.
The series premiered on 9 October 2018, following a successful pilot aired in 2017. On 11 November 2020, a second season was announced, and all 6 episodes finally aired on 13 June 2021 on ABC iview.
On 24 August 2022, both long form seasons of the series were released worldwide on Netflix. However, due to the term wog being considered an ethnic slur to people from the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions, Superwog is displayed as Superbro on versions of Netflix outside of Australia. On 2 September of that same year, a short sketch titled Meeting with Netflix was uploaded to the official Superwog YouTube channel, as a way to promote the series' arrival to the streaming site.
On 31 January 2025, Netflix uploaded a video to YouTube teasing a new series featuring the characters of Superwog, titled Son of a Donkey. It premiered on Netflix on 30 October 2025.
