''The Wedge'' was a typical Australian sketch comedy similar to ''Series/FastForward'' or ''TheComedyCompany''. The major difference was that nearly all the sketches took place in the same town, the fictitous suburb of Wedgedale, so the transition from sketch to sketch often involved a reference to the previous one.

The most popular series of sketches involved the scandal prone athlete Mark Warey, whose public apologies for his latest "[[{{Malaproper}} indecent]]" would invariably make the situation worse. The Mark Warey character was featured in his own SpinOff; the {{Mockumentary}} ''MarkLovesSharon''.
