ChuckleVision

CBBC has shown some rubbish e.g. Tracy Beaker, my kids seem to find entertainment in that depressed program. But then they showed chucklevision, it actually made me laugh! It reminds me so much of the 1920's Laurel and Hardy, the way they play off of each other is just funny. You say this program only suits the younger kids, nonsense this is CBBC at its best. Paul and Barry are TV legends that have kept going through out the years.

Laurel and Hardy maybe gone but least we have the chuckle brothers to keep us entertained in the same classic fashion. In conclusion I hope chucklevison will continue for many years to come. Paul and Barry i solute you!

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.

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

I absolutely love this show. Paul and Barry are just fantastic, and their show makes me laugh and fills me with nostalgia. This show has been going on for a long time (and should return and continue), each episode is simple yet fantastic. I would highly recommend showing this series to any child or a teenage and adult ha ha. The contents in the series have nothing rude, it's just good old brilliant humour. A lot of memorable phrases can also be heard, such as "To me......To you" - and they will always be embedded in your mind. Also - come on it's Paul and Barry, who wouldn't love these guys!!! Chucklevision in one word: Fantastic!

I'm amazed that there aren't more reviews/ higher ratings for this fantastic show that has entertained generations of children for now over 20 years. The shows humour is timeless and The Chuckle Brothers deserve much more recognition for continuing to entertain after all these years and keeping the standard of this show so high.

Although the plots are always quite similar at the centre of the show is the relationship of the two brothers who I think are like a modern day Laurel and Hardy. They get into various scrapes but the heart between the two is always the key element. There's no bad language or violence, just good funny lines and some slapstick which children and parents can enjoy together.

This is a timeless show that hopefully will continue for many years to come.
