Eat Carpet is an Australian television series aired on SBS 1989–2005. Each hour-long episode consists of up to a dozen short films shot by amateur directors or film students from around the world. An estimated 3,000 films have been broadcast since the series premiered in 1989 alongside MC Tee Vee and The Noise.

Shorts of all styles and genres are shown, including documentaries, music videos, stage performances, dramas, comedies, interviews and even mildly pornographic films. Shorts presented ranged from 2 minutes to 24 minutes.

However, Eat Carpet ended in 2005 after 16 years. It has since been replaced with "Shorts on Screen" among other collections of short film shows.
