Let Loose Live was an hour-long Australian live sketch comedy television programme that was loosely based on Saturday Night Live. It was broadcast on the Seven Network on Sunday nights at 8:30 PM. It was axed after just two episodes due to disappointing ratings. It was not replaced; instead, Channel 7's regular Sunday Night movies returned to the 8.30 slot.
Let Loose Live made its premiere on the Seven Network on Sunday 29 May 2005. Its termination was announced the day after the second episode aired. Tim Worner, Seven's programming boss, conceded that it did not live up to expectations despite being strongly promoted. According to OzTAM, 955,000 viewers tuned in to its pilot episode, but then plummeted almost by a third to 650,000 the following week. Not long after the cancellation, Channel 7 hoped to reinstste the series to air during the summer months, but nothing ever came of it.
