Die, Fluffy Wuffy, Die!
NOT MEANT TO BE TAKEN LITERALLY! If this blog is anything it's sit-down comedy. I don't break news stories. I rant, growl, quack on and joke about them. If you can't see where this blog is coming from you're an utter peckerhead.

Chasing politically correct approval

Monday, 20 July 2009 1:00 P GMT+10
More dreary PC "satire" from the Chaser boys: In a skit making reference to Kevin Rudd's populist comments about the ban on climbing Uluru, they tried to scale the spire of the church he worships at.  There's that old law in ac

The dumping of Amanda Duthie

Thursday, 11 June 2009 10:34 P GMT+10
The way the ABC is dealing with this Chaser sketch scandal is absurd. I mean, sacking the Head of TV Comedy because she didn't flag the sketch and refer it upwards for consideration? It's the kind of bureaucratic buck passing you might see in

The Chastened

Monday, 8 June 2009 10:45 P GMT+10
Re this cancer kids comedy kerfuffle: One of the Chaser team said "it was meant to be so over the top that people wouldn't take it seriously".  Well if you're going to do that, you have to make it crystal clear. You have to con

Provoking the primate

Monday, 1 June 2009 12:39 P GMT+10
Despite the large numbers watching, many viewers said the latest episode of The Chaser was a real stinker. The feeling seems to be that their glory days are behind them; that they've well and truly "flown the Vatican". I reckon they'

Selective sensitivities

Wednesday, 13 May 2009 2:40 P GMT+10
Still on the subject of humor and political correctness:ABC management courageously stands by their purported satirists from The Chaser when they mock Catholics. But it goes all squeamish when other groups are offended. I reckon it's fine if you&

Bennelong time since we've seen you, Maxine!

Monday, 11 August 2008 1:21 A GMT+10
In other cynical former hack news: Maxine McKew, Labor heroine and slayer of the "Master of Evil", has already forgotten about the very people who voted her in.  The disdain she and her snobby mates have for the electorate is just naus

Finally, some good news about climate change!

Monday, 12 May 2008 2:12 P GMT+10
Ferndamentalist doomsayers are desperate to characterize climate change as entirely bad.  But a more logical approach would imply that even if it is occurring, climate change, like so many things, will be good for some and bad for

Revamps for tramps

Wednesday, 30 January 2008 12:43 P GMT+10
Looks like they're revamping everything over at their ABC.  The iconic squiggle is being upgraded somehow.  I'm sure some will be up in arms about that ...  Also, I've seen the new ABC promo for 2008.  Has all the usua

The loneliest Mighell

Wednesday, 28 November 2007 12:57 P GMT+10
Denials about Labor being controlled by unions are already being proved false.  Dean Mighell, chief boofhead for the ETU, is already being invited back into the Labor fold.    Interestingly, he's refused.  Seems he&#

Out-chasing the Chaser

Thursday, 22 November 2007 11:24 A GMT+10
Upon hearing about this fake Muslim flyer scandal last night on Lateline, I almost couldn't believe how stupid the perpetrators were.  Jacquie Kelly, the wife of one of those who allegedly created the flyers, is saying that it was merel

The Chaser versus Today Tonight

Thursday, 15 November 2007 9:12 P GMT+10
It's farce-orama in OZ TV Land folks!The Chaser team tempted fate at APEC, putting their empty heads in the cross-hairs of trigger happy Seppos snipers, yet the closest they've come to suffering actual physical damage occurred

Chaser latest

Wednesday, 14 November 2007 12:59 A GMT+10
A while ago there was talk of the Chaser boys going on to a commercial station.  (Don't know why, the "joke" died long ago when their faces became known.)If that is still the plan, I doubt every much that Channel 7 will b

The Chaser's war on itself?

Friday, 26 October 2007 2:58 P GMT+10
Looks like recent controversies have stressed out the Chaser boys a tad.  The "satirical" team is riven with tension, and there are reports of "creative differences" .  "Creative differences."  Hmm. 

Accidental satire: Tim Freedman versus The Chaser

Wednesday, 10 October 2007 3:17 P GMT+10
The question any non-moron asks when watching The Chaser show is: if they're waging a satirical war on everything, why do they never take the piss out of the sacred cows of the left? Well, surprisingly it looks like they actually have -- though

Chaser boys satirize themselves

Saturday, 29 September 2007 2:37 P GMT+10
Watched a bit of The Chaser's War on Everything last night.Gawd what a nasty and moronic show that is.  And talk about flogging a dead horse.  Practically everyone in the country knows who these smug dickheads are anyway, so the &q

Sorry song's composer not sorry!

Wednesday, 11 July 2007 1:24 P GMT+10
Here's another case of hand-wringing chalkies trying to ram their sanctimonious agenda down the necks of children at taxpayers' expense.  This time it's a "sorry song" .Just heard the composer, Kerry Fle

Mike Bailey, Labor's latest

Tuesday, 22 May 2007 9:11 P GMT+10
The Labor Party has snared yet another ABC celebrity.  Not a hack, but.  They've already recruited all those available.  This time it's a weatherman.It'll be a bloody make-up artist next.
