Thread: Chaser's War on Everything

these blokes have been working on it for oooh, a decade?

a bunch of over educated underachievers I think

I love this show

Accidently watched it as I was hoping that "The Gruen Effect" might be on after "Spicks 'n Specks".

Think they're losing it a bit. Wasn't too much on there tonight that I thought was very funny, except for:

• the Shore Boathouse Appeal in Somalia, and
• Jesus was off prospecting for metal at the very end (the shark attack was un-funny).

I enjoy their studio commentary and puns, but when they cut to "real situations" where they put themselves in legal and physical danger I start to cringe.

The bit about flying a small dirrigble in St Peter's Square was just inappropriate and a somewhat dangerous (protected airspace) prank - didn't these blokes learn from APEC in 2007?

The stuff in the USA testing legal cases was awkward and made me feel queasy for the "victims" of their pranks.

Sorry, give me Good News Week (and Claire Hooper ) over this ****.

Paul - you have to be kidding. The whole show was hilarious - and in the same vein as what they have been doing from the start - including getting themselves arrested (they were arrested at the vatican).

Clare Hooper is the least funny thing/shebeast on telvision. She should be given the boot asap. I am sure she is only on GNW because she is Paul's bit on the side.

I love the show - but thought it was a slightly slow start to a new series.

But the Billy Connelly in Iraq - now that was bloody funny - dare I say, "Brilliant"!

Agree, its a funny arse show... but wasnt there best.

BUT much funnier than Top Gear OZ

Dorko

I normally love the chaser but my partner and I thought last nights was a big old bore. Oh well I'm sure they will get better.

I guess I'm just getting old then. I've found myself watching that "Grumpy Old Men" show and nodding in agreement with them

Don't I wish (oops, wrong Paul)... she does have a couple of good points

Hopefully Chaser's will improve or I'll regain my sense of humour. Maybe they could add Clare Hooper to the cast... I'd watch it for sure then.
