War On Everything

The Chaser’s War On Everything is the team’s best-known series, having screened around the world. It stars Andrew Hansen, Chas Licciardello, Julian Morrow, Craig Reucassel and Julian Morrow, with occasional appearances from Charles Firth and writer Dominic Knight. Filmed in front of a live studio audience, the show consists of a range of sketches, segments and songs, as well as the stunts for which the team is best known. In 2007, the team infiltrated the APEC conference in Sydney, which made headlines around the world.

The show was first broadcast in 2006 (26 episodes and 2 best-of compilations), and again in 2007 (24 episodes). After a break from television in 2008, the team returns in 2009 with ten episodes beginning on 27 May. For the most recent series, the team has filmed new stunts in various locations around the world.

There are also international editions of the show which have been screened around the world and on several airlines’ inflight entertainment – these are shorter series with the Australia-specific content removed.

The show won the 2006 AFI Award for Best Comedy, and Andrew Hansen took home Best Comedy Performer. The show is a coproduction between Chaser Broadcasting and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

The show’s official online home, with an extensive video archive, is at the ABC website. Its new video archive is so extensive that we haven’t included any YouTube clips here. Wikipedia also contains arguably too much information about the series.
