Granted the Australians haven't had the best luck in creating successful television programmes, but the Chaser boys changed all that. The first time I saw this show I became addicted.
Why is The Chaser's War on Everything the greatest TV programme to be created by the Australians? Just watch one episode and you will find out why. The boys have skilfully created a bunch of hilarious segments that give them the opportunity to make jackasses out of themselves (on that note this show is a bit like Jackass...except Chaser is actually good).
Believe it or not, the Chaser team are a group of Aussie blokes who met in law school. They would need a damn good bunch of lawyers on their side because of how funny that are capable of being. That Apec stunt is a good example of the authorities strongly disagreeing with their actions. "You're not funny" says a policeman during an interview. All I can say is...the bloke is only saying that because he's the one who got in deep shit for being incompetent. Heh, maybe it will teach you to actually have a good team of security guards next time. Sheesh!
Of course the Chaser team have their fair share of scandals. The "dead person song" in particular caused a negative ruckus. For me, I didn't find it insensitive. The boys just had a little bit of fun. They're not hurting anyone, are they? People should just grow up and appreciate a bit of entertainment.
The Chaser boys originally had their own newspaper column (they still do) but they were eventually given the oppportunity to give TV a shot. Australian television has become better with the Chaser filling up a suitable time slot. As a result the show is so popular that tickets are sold astronomically quickly for being a member of the audience.
In a nutshell: The Chaser's War on Everything is the greatest Australian television programme of all time. It's funny, witty and entertaining! When you get the chance you must watch an episode. You will not regret it!
