ChuckleVision

ChuckleVision is a comedy programme featuring the exploits of the hapless Paul and Barry Chuckle. If you were to ask me, I would consider ChuckleVision to be the best CBBC show made for the channel. Why? You may ask me. Well, let me explain.

Throughout this long running series, ChuckleVision features the aforementioned Chuckle Brothers trying to perform a basic task whilst causing trouble on the way. The two brothers are identified by their personalities, with Paul being the bossy but smart one, and Barry being the kind but dimwitted one. It seems the two brothers viewed Laurel and Hardy as a major inspiration for these two characters, and they are very memorable, likeable and funny.

Each episode often focuses on a basic outline, such as the brothers running a pizza delivery service or painting a rather large ship. The jokes would often be full of well written puns, as well as slapstick that commonly occurs in a few scenes. They would be related to the overall plot of the episode, and you're bound to have a chuckle at them. I should mention that the running times vary for each series of the show (with some episodes lasting for 15 to 20 minutes), but I wouldn't call it an issue. I feel Paul and Barry managed to give this show a broad appeal, because the comedy is appropriate for all generations; children may enjoy the slapstick, while the adults will laugh at the well written jokes.

Because the show is a long runner, you may be thinking that the quality of this programme declined in the later episodes. ChuckleVision manages to avert this, as the last few episodes manage to be just as good as the older ones. However, I did prefer the later episodes over the older ones, as I thought they were funnier and more exciting. Then again, viewers may prefer the older episodes.

I'd definitely recommend ChuckleVision if you're a fan of comedy, and as the episodes are easily available on YouTube you can choose whatever episode you want to start with.

Great show still now. Entertainment for adults as well as kids.

Chuckle Vision is just too funny.It is my fourth best cartoon out of twenty.I love when Mr no Slakking says his saying "and remember, no slacking. These are some facts about Chuckle vision:

1.Did you know that Barry Chuckle is older than Paul Chuckle in real life. 2.Did you also know that Mr no Slakking is actually Paul and Barry Chuckles older brother. I was shocked when I found out this myself. I like when the chuckle brothers say "to me, to you". Barry is actually more knowledgeable than Paul even though Paul showoffs that he knows more.Barry is more funnier than Paul but I think both of them are hilarious.

Paul and Barry chuckle never fail to make me laugh. they have done ever since I was a small child. their comedy does stretch across all age gaps, and now my children are receiving the same pleasure I had from watching these classic comedic gods.

aside from their slapstick comedy which can at times feel a little tired, you can rest assured that these guys come across as decent and kind people. they shine a light on good morals and give a wonderful demonstration on how to deal with the stress of life with a big smile and a can do attitude.

to say I love these guys would be an understatement. these are national treasures, Slightly overlooked by the mainstream. but easily on the podium with our other greats. although possibly in their own category

Chucklevision has got to be easily the best children's programme showing on CBBC, with comedy suitable for both adults and children alike, often me and my kids laugh out loud at their various antics. Unfortunately recently they have only been producing 6 15 minute-ish episodes as compared to their 15 of previous seasons. Although their newer episodes are still funny, and better than allot of other children's programmes, i think the older episodes (only seen as far back as season 7) are their best work - i know what you were thinking, how could they be any funnier! To conclude, if you've never seen them before, watch an episode or two, you'll be surprised by how funny they actually are, i know i was
