Synopsis
DAAS Kapital is an Australian television comedy series which was written and performed by comedy trio the Doug Anthony All Stars.

The first season of seven episodes was broadcast on Australia's ABC network in 1991. A second series was produced and went to air on the ABC in 1992. The title is a reference to the trio's acronym "DAAS" and Karl Marx's economic treatise Das Kapital. The series was aired in 18 countries including Japan, Britain, USA and Germany. The series was released on DVD on 20 March 2013 with commentary by the All Stars and a new, original song. On 13 April 2013, the All Stars reunited for a one-off show celebrating the launch of the DVD set.

Richard isn't allowed to attend the ball because he isn't a member of the Lodge, and besides, who else would iron all of Tim and Paul's Rhino clothes and clean the floor? But while poor Richard is locked away in his room, slaving away over a hot iron, his fairy goldfish decides to drop in. This episode features the songs 'Living with Girls' and the 'Rhino Song'.

Mr Spickle-Head, Wince, Mr Toaster (which involves a toater and a conducting rod) and the dreaded, but probably alot of fun for everyone but Tim, Mr Potato. Paul and Richard are lonely, and as a result they have broken one of the rules- NO PETS! Tim decides to cook a feast. This episode features the songs 'Sunday Mornings' and 'Get Nicked Mum'.
