  • I laughed so hard when i saw this sketch.

  • ye theyre not making fun of the children being sick but the foundation itself!

  • "Viewers were not amused..." Then we hear all the laughter :P

  • I want to put my dick in any cunt who tries to antagonise the chasers. They're the fucking shit. Brilliant comic. harden the fuck up australia.

  • If you don't like it, don't watch it.. simple as that.

  • winge fuckin winge

  • Laughter is the best medicine.

  • they should be shot.....STFU BITCH get a sense of humor

  • Ok, its funny, but those kids are actually dying... in very bad taste.

  • WTF omg they said they're making fun of sick kids? they were making fun of the make a wish foundation crap. I saw the add ( except of the last quote in the sketch)

  • And also, Kevin Rudd is an idiot

  • I found it funny, :D

  • @AusVietnamesePride ahaha yep

  • Actually watching this clip...it's actually taking a shot at the make a wiush foundation not sick kids. And ffs, if you watch the show you already know half the shit they do is gonna cause an uproar, if you can't handle it stop fucking watching it.

  • I love the chasers!!! But that was sorta bad =(

  • that sketch wasn't making fun OF sick children, it was merely using them in a funny situation. I can understand that anyone whose child died would find the sketch upsetting, but you should be able to poke fun at serious things.

  • it is pretty sick...

  • millions of kids are dying from malnutrition and curable diseases and kids get to make any wish they want? that's total bs.

  • To all those that got offended by the sketch I ask; You obviously watch the show, don't you feel it a little hypocritical or, at least, selfish, to laugh at all the other scenarios but, when it hits a bit too close to home, you condemn it for being outrageous and offensive?

    Cake and eat it too?

  • "The Chasers War on Everything Except Sick Kids"

  • On a serious note why do these kids get to make wishes when there are kids in other parts of the world, younger than them,suffering way worse everyday?

  • He is amazed at what offends people! Maybe if you have ever had a child that has died or been really sick you would see it was more than offense, it was low, cheap, dirty 'humour' and everyone of them should have lost their job

  • TEN can shove it up their collective arses and all those other parents who had a big winge

  • Fuck you Rudd, you got yours in the end

  • Kids die from hunger and disease all the time in other countries, and our kids get to make wishes? make-a-wish need to prioritize. Thumbs up if you agree.

  • Thats what makes this show SO good.They do what they want and don't give a fuck. Sure this joke did go over the line but it has truth behind it.

  • A lady said they should be shot?! Hypocritical much?

  • I admitt it wasn't their best sketch but these kind of jokes already exsist so it's nothing new. But alot these kids do make alot unrealistic wishes so you cna see why these kind of jokes come about. 

  • 56 crew from Today Tonight & A Current Affair liked this.

  • yeah its bad, but people should just seriously settle down, it wasnt there funniest thing, but it wasnt as bad as they were saying.. jeez

  • Nive finger wiggling Krudd.

  • that skit did go too far but the fact they got cancelled for it is outrageous!

  • The chaser does a skit about dying kids and everybody is outraged. They do a skit about a suicide bomber and nobody cares.

  • "why bother when they're only gonna die anyway?" hahahahaha! ... classic.

  • lol channel ten why show like half of the skit if it was so offensive

  • thankyou every comment i've seen your summing it up, these reports infuriate and sadden me that the chaser name has been besmirched in this way (epic sigh)

  • Comment removed

  • "I was horified, greatly offended..."

    Who cares?!

  • ONE WISH and the kid wanted to see the pope??? whats wrong with that kid

  • Eh, I wouldn't make a huge fuss over it like these guys. But I just didn't find it funny. Say what you want... satire or not...whatever their intentions were or not... watching or depicting sick children and making fun of them is not funny. Maybe it's just me. Or maybe I don't have a sick sense of humor like some people.

  • The only offending comment was the theyre only gonna die anyway. Chris made it worse by saying in front of the kid.

  • "Comedic genius, or just bad taste?"

    First one, hands down :P

  • @jettison27 What's the difference, anyways? :D

  • soft cocks.

  • If they were making fun of sick children this would he outrageous, but they were making fun of people who don't donate to these charities because they think those things. It's a literary technique called IRONY people, look it up! Because I know no one will look it up, here it is for you: "The expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect." They were looking for empathy for these children and it worked very well!

  • It's a patent exposition of the selfishness of people when it comes to charity. Satires are meant to make us to reconsider our own positions on social issues and I think that this kind of should be applauded for making people uncomfortable.

    People look at current affair programs on these issues and might shed a useless tear, but the Chasers use shock as a stimulus for action and change. A really pathetic reaction.

  • oh stfu Krudd

  • "They're disgusting, they need to be shot."

    Wow.

  • okay so people apparently didnt find it funny, yet you can hear the audience laughing... IMPOSSIBRU!

  • @MrZenneth12 I know right

  • crying little bitches

  • heartless

  • People get so butthurt over nothing.

  • Why are people saying this is satire and therefore it's ok? The point of satire is to exaggerate or ridicule, through the use of humour, so as to expose people's stupidity or vices. I fail to see how these kids, or the foundation, have any vices which need to be exposed. Maybe it's humour for the sake of humour, but then why make it so brutal? The Mansion did a very similar sketch on the foundation, but they kept it tasteful. The Mansion did it properly, the Chaser just went too far...

  • @patmycatalan the chaser's said themselves that it was supposed to be so over the top that no one would take it seriously. I didnt take it seriously and personally found it funny.

  • I found it funny. It's not like they were literally killing children. 

  • lol, funny, cruel funny ^^

    oh and i dont see whats so bad its a JOKE, i have cancer and i'm getting my wish soon this made me laugh and smile

  • i was bloody pissing myself laughing when i saw it!!

  • "It seems Chaser's viewers didn't see the funny side of this skit, when it aired last night."

    What are they talking about? I laughed my ass off when I saw this for the first time.

  • When keeping it real goes wrong!!!!, i love the chaser's but dam that was fucked i can't look at sick australian kids an laugh..

  • WTF this is satire. These people are almost as oblivious as the people thinking TheOnion news is real.

  • This is why the educational level in Australia and other countries needs to drastically improve - when politicians (who are supposed to be running the place) don't even understand what satire is, and what the point of it is, we're in serious trouble.

    And anyone who WAS upset and outraged by the sketch should take a look at what THEY do to help charity-run organizations. If you don't do your bit and donate money to those in need, then aren't you also shrugging them off like the sketch did?

  • It's called black comedy, not bad taste, fucking morons.

  • fucking dumbcunts. i watched this when it aired and i laughed my ass off. not cause they are teasing the kids. but cause they tease the foundation/s. i hate ACA fucking maggots

  • @Kinetic0900 10 news my bad

  • who gives a fuck its still funny

  • Pathetic sensationalist media. Perfect example right here.

  • some people are so clueless! Obviously there aren't having a go at kids.

    Plus its the Chaser's job to push the boundaries. Its the job of the bosses at the ABC to pull something off air if it goes too far.

  • damn it i laughed my ass off :)

  • Fuck I hate the word inundated, most over used retarded word of the Australian media.

  • Man, people are too touchy these days.

  • this is just to far its not fuuny paying out the foundation

  • Does it make me an evil/bad/*insert negative connotation* if I actually find this skit hilarious? To all the people crying about this, I'm afraid you will truly never understand satire. Please never watch The Chaser again and go back to your Rob Schnieder movies.

  • I don't have to calm down about this it's ridiculous my best friend Abby has had cancer since she was 4 and ever since I haven't seen her she has 2 more months to live until cancer takes her over and then I'll NEVER see her again

  • @AutumnMarieDee There are many people in your life you will never see again. There will also be an equal amount of people who will never see you again. Death is a part of life. I really don't understand how making jokes about the most common occurrence in the universe can offend so many people..

  • ... to all the ppl that made such a big fuss out of it.

    go hang your head in dumbness. why the hell are you watching adult comedy when you know its all for laughs or to make a point

  • @drpatrice

    dude it was a joke. it was aimed at make a wish. it wasnt the chasers poking fun at the kids. in fact i found it quite funny that it is true that only a few wishes, ussually the worse ones acctually get done and thats wat they were saying here.

    as for ur friend, dude i wouldnt b yelling at them id b loving them those men colectivly did some of the most amazing comedy sketchs ever. and notice how no1 complaind about the racist 1s but 1 joke about sick kids and instant tabo? crazy

  • Then DONT watch TV, BITCH!!

  • Fuck meeting the pope before you die

  • thats funny, but at the same time terribly wrong.

  • I think we need to shoot people who make bad-taste jokes about sick children.... because we don't want our value system compromised. Perhaps some other network can do a story on this woman wishing grievous bodily harm against comedians.

  • Lets be real, you were laughing every time they cut to the Chaser's clip

  • "Yeah i'm a fat skank and this kid was an accident, shoot them please!"

  • People do realise the kids weren't really terminal. Right? I'm more disgusted by the "responsible mothers".

  • get a sence of humer

  • "audience didn't find it funny"

    5 seconds later *audience laughs*

  • channel ten just wants to make a big deal out of everything the chaser does because never have they had a show on their station that was half as good.

  • that women took a child to see the pope, DOES SHE WANT HER CHILD RAPED

  • @Bayzz2 they won''t rape her child, she's a girl

  • @flootisboy65 true

  • was the sick kid in the skit an actor actually a sick kid.

  • @gTunes64 an actor.

  • WHO THE F*** WANTS TO MEET THE POPE?

  • I laughed, I'm going to hell

  • Dave Chappelle did something just like this! And no one complained! Will never make sense to me!

  • Taylor, Morrow, Hansen, Reucassel, and Licciardello f-ed up here.

    But all will be forgotten when they take their final breath

    Yes, even The Chaser will turn into top blokes after death.

  • Ffs - It was a funny joke! Australia seems like a disqustingly conservative country!

  • Who would want to meet the pope!?!? He does nothing

  • I had a family friend who was a sick kid back when this was on and she could see that it was only comedy how come no one else can...

  • And I thought it was toast.. Totally distasteful.

    Toast, taste, someone's hungry.

  • i found that scetch and was horrified but they were not making fun of the children their type of comedy show s the views of some peiople. just some people nare horrible.

  • Yea, I'm outraged. Horrorifed. Let's call for an inquiry.

  • Most stupid dispute ever. People know that the Chaser's put this kind of thing on their show yet they choose to watch it. If you're choosing to watch the show you cannot then go and say that you are offended by it. Obviously the audience found it funny as they were laughing. If you don't find it funny, don't watch it and get over it. Simple as that.

  • @whalegivingbirth It's not like people are watching it EXPECTING this skit to happen. You can't just choose not to watch what you're not expecting.

  • @AMpufnstuf I totally agree there. The pope is way too overrated.

    As for the skit itself, this was funny. Sometimes, we need to laugh, even at things which are depressing, otherwise, we'd all live in never ending misery because fact of the matter is, nowadays there's so much to be sad about, and so little to be happy about. The chasers simply took what was sad and made it funny.

  • 'They're disgusting, they need to be shot'

    Stupid bitch, shes just as bad

  • 'They didn't see the funny side...' * Audience Laughs*

    Stupid Reporter.

  • I love the chaser. But this sketch was fucked.

  • AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA

  • 'it seems the chasers viewers didn't see the funny side of this skit either...' Yet we can hear them all laughing in the background....

  • Some people can't take a joke, I laughed.

  • chaser's need to grow up they are dick heads

  • @ChloeRosie14 Grow up to what? 50 years of maturity, 15 years of immaturity, why the FUCK would you ever want to 'grow up?' that's some sick logic right there.. their delivering lost comedy, and good comedy always insult, this one insults the foundation and not the kids.

  • its just a joke mannnn the kids werent even real.. were they? get over it

  • @ElephantsTongue they actualy were

  • Comment removed

  • I just laughed at this when the skit first came out, people get offended to easily

  • "They're disgusting, they need to be shot."

    So Channel Ten have no problem airing a woman with a young child in her arms wishing death upon five people, and yet people complain about a SATIRE skit from The Chaser?

  • @ShadesAtKnight shut up cunt

  • @666pat666 Yawn. Go away bogan.

  • They are fucking awesome, it is funny but I think they get the point it wasnt funny to people that actually have those kind of situations, They are still funny as cunt but

  • Okay, I LOVE the chasers! they are fucking awesomee!! But I really thought this was over the line. Really :(. But i still think they are fucking awesome!!!

  • It wasn't supposed to make fun of sick kids! It was how foundations don't live up to the wishes that the kids ask for. However, it was artistically a failure and it's intention did not reach most of the audience. Also the idea of it isn't necessarily a good one either.

  • Everyone cried so much over this, little bitches.

  • they're all a bunch of fucking idiots and like that lady said, need a bullet.

  • It was a funny sketch and not a parody of sick children themselves.

    I'll tell you what is a parody of both sick children and all humanity- lying to them and claiming that there is any sort of god or real blessing that old pedophile pope is capable of.

    The mother complaining about the supposedly wrongful skit is herself an immoral bitch for encouraging her dying daughter to think the pope could bless her all better.

  • its simple people.... we know that it was a joke and it actually helped the publicity of the charity...we know lots of people obviously take themselves too seriously and have no sense of humour. but the main drama is the other networks are so jealous over the popularity of the chaser they are looking to get them taken off the air at any point... dirty media tactics.... simple

  • If they just left that last line out... everything would be ok

  • I had a friend that died from cancer and the outrage I am feeling now is un explainable. They need to realise the cut off point from a joke and not a joke

  • @Bow0Chick0A0wow0wOW your friend would be saying shut the fuck up and let people joke about anything, its nothing personal you knobs you are not that important so go back in your hole and stop complaining about stupid fucking political correctness

  • @nflizsoft6 haha this made my day

  • @Bow0Chick0A0wow0wOW your welcome

  • @nflizsoft6 No really I am in tears hahah.. Your funny

  • @Bow0Chick0A0wow0wOW your welcome

  • To see a politician come off as morally superior is just ridiculous. Fuck off K-rudd

  • Obviously the mother is diehard Christian btw..

  • Who cares who they where making fun off. It's funny and nobody is going to die because they made a joke..

  • Long live the chaser... screw everyone else.

  • lol rudd was smileing when he was talking about it

  • chaser should never feel sorry bout anything they bring me lolz

  • people did see hte funny side .. cant you hear the laughing in the backround ? LOL

  • Just for the record, they were making fun of the Foundations.

    NOT the kids.

  • @Charity22296 so make fun of chariety organisations that volunteer their time , money and effort ...

    Raising funds and other things ... for sick kids?

    discusting

  • @ProfessorTiNfOiL I thought it had a valuable point. That sometimes these charities are... lets just say "off"

    I thought it was funny. Now sue me

  • @Charity22296 I thought it was quite a low blow , and it seems the majority of people and the tv station execs agree with me.

    I enjoy watching the chasers , and they have had many many many funny skits.

    This One was not one of them and missed the mark ... they appoligiesd and the chaser show went on making actual funny skits.

    Problem solved.

  • @Charity22296 Actually the sketch was satirical and the purpose was to invoke sympathy for the kids. This is kind of like "A Modest Proposal".

  • @Charity22296 "why go into any trouble, if they're gonna die anyway" It really sounds like they're making fun of the foundation. shame on the chaser

  • @nicoleb

    And I'm sure you will see it as giving up, but it's not. Not everyone is prepared to spend their life on YouTube.

    Find yourself a boyfriend not made up of pixels. It may relax you a bit. You are obviously one very frustrated bint.

    Am closing my YouTube account. So don't try and get in touch, weirdo. Don't need an account to watch videos which is all I did till I saw your sicko comment and is all I intend doing in the future.

  • Craig: "We're amazed at what offends people"

    So Am I.

    Seriously, grow up people and take a joke.

    fuck sake...

  • Why did people moan and find it so horrible?

    It is the truth after all since many make a wish places do not grant the kids wishes and do actually think that way.

    Some people out there are heartless enough to think that they should not bother trying to grant the kids wish because they will die soon anyway and that is how heartless/money hungry some people can be.

    It seems that people just do not want to hear how horrible the world really can be.

    :|

  • Hey Chaser, go suck a fat dick, you arrogant prick.

  • i thought it was hilarious

  • great joke people need to grow up and find real things to complain about

  • ITS FUNNY THOUGH!

    black comedy.

  • They should be named... and shamed

  • umm... they didn't make fun of the dying children they made fun of what they wished for. what they were trying to say out of that skit, was they weren't going to get there wish because of what they are asking for. Yes it was a bit out of line but it wasn't as fuked up as making fun of the children's suffering.

  • i find it funny because most make a wish foundations are shithouse

  • I assume those people have TV and on those TVs there is something called an off switch. If you don't like it turn it off.

  • It's just comedy learn the meaning dickheads.

  • "made them the butt of a sick skit."

    ....you do know this was satire meant to make people donate more, not give the dying children less, right?

    humanity is getting dumber every day. prepare for Idiocracy, people!

  • lollolol she has a go at the chaser's, yet she fills her child with false hope telling her the pope wil come bless her

  • it made me laugh that kevin rudd actually said something about it

    after all, the chaser team is made to satire political shit

  • One of their funniest skits ever, if you dont like it dont watch it

  • weren't those kids actors??

  • I like the fact they didn't meantion that Krudd commened on the sketch WITHOUT HAVING SEEN IT.

    /facepalm

  • Rudd commenting on Chaser skits, thats the kind of thing that finished him, the douchebag should have been running the country not his mouth

  • im not so full of myself to deny that i laughed when i saw this but it is alittle offenceive

  • fuck censorship

  • she say's their audience didn't find it funny but if u listen u can hear the audience laughing 

  • loool, her wish was to meet the pope? thats bad man

  • Kevin Rudd says: "Hang your heads in shame."

    I say: "Kevin Rudd,, You got rapped by a cuntfaced ranga!!!! ZOOM ZOOM ZOOM!!!!"

  • I only really thought the last line in the sketch was going too far.

  • By giving them so much attention... You are just going to offend thoasands more people rather then the 3 people who actually saw it and actually WERE offended!

  • Who gives a shit if you were offened fuck off.

  • The title of this vid has a double meaning "sick kid joke" can mean a joke about sick kids, or a sick joke about kids.

  • @Kairishotdude fuckin prick how is that funny someone should hit u in the nuts really hard with a basball bat

  • i think they should be beaten up and put in intensive care and on thier death bed someone should publicaly make fun of them fuckin cruel cunts

  • @MrHeyfuckoff First of all, nice name, doesn't give the impression of a giant wanker right of the bat at all. Second of all, it's satire, and damn good satire at that. The only realise the sketch got as big an uproar as it did was because the Chaser's audience had branched out into people that were never meant to be watching the show. If this had been one of their earliest sketches, nobody would have cared, but the media had nothing better to do at the time than rag on the Chaser.

  • over here in aus that was all over the news even the primeminister was not happy
