Grass Roots is an Australian television series produced by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation between 2000 and 2003.
The series is set around the fictional Arcadia Waters Council in a suburb of Sydney, and was primarily a satirical look at the machinations of local government. It was written by Geoffrey Atherden. The show and the characters are based on the Banyule City Council, which caused a legal stir at the time.[citation needed]
