Basically Black is a 1973 Australian television comedy program, notable as the first television program written and created by Indigenous Australians. It was produced as one of a series of pilot programs called The Comedy Game.

A single half-hour of sketch comedy, the program was based on a satirical political revue of the same name by the National Black Theatre that had been performed at the Nimrod Theatre in Sydney the previous year.[1][2]

It premiered on 7 July 1973 as part of a series of ABC Television comedy pilots, The Comedy Game.[3] Some elements of the original script had been censored by Australian Broadcasting Corporation,[4] and it was described by Gary Foley as a "politically watered-down" version of the stage show.[1]

The pilot was deemed a success, but the ABC did not proceed with creating a series from it.[1]
