Anyone else see this show?
They do some funny creative stuff and are able to work a message into their pranks.
I believe the first U.S. episode airs tonight on G4

I'm surprised I haven't heard of them before, the clips where they break out into musicals in public are great too.

This is a great show!
It's probably a little bit dated now though, as many of the segments were very topical and about current Australian news stories and politics, but still entertaining nonetheless.
Edit :

Craig Reucassel's axe stunt
On 2 August 2006, Reucassel responded to a news story about a private school student who had hugged Prime Minister John Howard while holding a screwdriver during one of the PM's morning walks. To test the Prime Minister's security arrangements, he approached John Howard during a morning walk and asked for a hug while holding a large plastic battle axe. Reucassel did receive the hug, but a later approach while holding a running chainsaw was not so successful.[36][37] Cut out from this segment was an unsuccessful attempt that took place between the axe and the chainsaw, in which Reucassel was holding a four-point-star mace.[38]

Haha, Chasers are brilliant, they used to have another show called CNNNN(N?) which was predominately skits, Surprise spruiker and the musical segments are some of my faves.
If anyone has any idea how to rip dvds and put them onto the net for others, as I'm pretty much computer illiterate in that regard, I can upload all but one disc, Season 1 and half of season 2 (They had some legal issues releasing the second half due to the osama prank.) They're pretty kickass.

I've only seen the John Howard stuff on the streets in America before, but from what I can see it seems to be quite an entertaining show

They do some pretty good stuff- most of the time they just act like a bunch of university try hards. Half thier shit is staged.
