The thing that bugs me....I turned it off after the comments about our police.....is that people see this and arent aware its a joke. There are people who see us this way. A nice jab at en "Eh?" or an igloo is fine....but when you start talking s*** about the people who protect us (policemen/women and our army) a HUGE line has been crossed. Just completely classless
What bother's me is that the same people you are describing are allowed to vote/drive/raise kids.
I for one love this show. Obviously this segment will turn alot of Canadians off because the blatant ignorance of our country in that clip, and the hatred out there for Fox News, but I think the show is pretty funny. Some of the dirtiest things I have ever heard on TV was from this show.
When the host introduces his guests is probably what makes the show for me:

I dont get the appeal. Some random dude makes some obnoxious introductions.
Woo-hoo? WTF is this show about?

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
Unfortunately, Canada has a poor recent history of being America's mooching next door neighbor (at least militarily). Despite all the good work being done now, there's a huge gap where we were more useless than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest.
It wasn't overly funny, but its nothing to be offended by, its no worse than some of the many botched Anti-American sketches on 22 Minutes.

Well its obviously not for everyone. What they do is make fun of the news, but rather than the onion, they comment on real news stories of the day and it's not scripted and they don't even try to hold back their obnoxious comments. Also they answer hate mail every now and then and make fun the people writing to them.
Yes, it can be quite immature, but it's right up my alley. Also since it's on at 1 AM, I usually only watch it after I come home from the bar. My inebriation might also have something to do with why I find this show so funny.
Tongue in cheek or not, it's insulting to Canadian's. We shouldn't have to stand for that BS. Make a few stabs at us.. fine, but that was just pushing things too far for me.

You guys are a bunch of tools taking this seriously. Its a panel of comedians
Tools.. excellent contribution.
It doesn't matter if they're comedians. They're making insinuations that are completely false, and effectively derogatory.
Portrayals of Canada as some weak sister who does nothing for the United States but hide behind them when some bad stuff happens is complete garbage. We are the biggest trading partner with the United States, we've never asked them to fight a battle for us, rather the other way around, and for crying out loud our winters are no worse than anything you'd get in Northern US states.. there are some things you can kind of shrug off, but I get really tired of this crap.

The thing is, if you fall into the trap of being rattled and riled up by it, then they are effectively completing their objective.
If some uninformed moron believes anything those idiots say, then what loss is it to us?
But if a bunch of Canadians or Canada-defenders (white knights if you will) get all up in arms about it, then that only encourages them.
Like in elementary school, ignoring the bully is the best solution.

Well there you have it people, after an extensive search we have discovered the least funny try-hard show on Television.
Seriously did anyone laugh at anything he said during those intros? I mean it wasn't even good enough for a facepalm of stupidity. All it got from me was a blank look and thinking to myself. "Seriously??"

only funny thing in those clips was the look of disbelief on the ex-british intelligence officer face wondering what the hell was wrong with the host and why was he on that ridiculous show. loved the flat out look of disgust and head shake he gave on the re-introduction.
That was very offensive to me actually. They attack our military and our police force and our culture, all of it baseless and ignorant. **** you FOX.
First of all, Canada has been holding down the fort in Afghanistan while the US was off fighting its illegitimate war in Iraq and we get these a$$hole$ saying that they didn't even know Canada was in the war?
Secondly, I'm 99.95% sure that the Canadian military "taking a break" is more that they won't be engaged in any overseas actions. I am fully confident that they would respond accordingly if there were any threats to Canadian soil or any overseas events that absolutely demanded action.
Thirdly, while the RCMP do dress up in red during parades and wear the hats and ride horses and the like, the fact that these a$$hole$ can't even comprehend that it is tradition and ceremony and that the RCMP and every other police force in the country is a modern police force is just mind-boggling and offensive.
I feel like hitting someone... mainly the host of that ridiculous show.
