The 1% Club Australia

Jim Jefferies is disgusting. He waffles and is NOT funny and quite crude at times. I love the concept of the show but WILL NOT watch the Australian version because of the presenter Jim Jefferies. I've seen numerous reviews about how disgusting he is. WHY HAS CH7 KEPT HIM AS PRESENTER OF THIS SHOW? The UK version of this show is FAR more entertaining..

Great show with in interesting questions. But the host is dreadful. He sounds drunk. He is insulting to the contestants. He never shuts up while the contestants are trying to answer the questions. He is obnoxious and way too loud. He shouts all the time. Contrast his style with that of Lee Mack on the UK version. They are like chalk and cheese. Lee is professional, Jim just tries too too hard and it is awful. Perhaps he will settle down but he has a long way to go to be good. But if you can get past him if is a really good show as it doesn't rely n general knowledge but the ability to see patterns and use logic. Some of the questions are quite challenging.

The Aussie host, Jim Jefferies, really needs to either be changed or totally and radically change his presentation skills (using the term loosely) He definitely should watch the UK host, Lee Mack, to see how he should present the show and indeed, himself. Jefferies tries too hard to be funny, he's crude and worst of all, the audience seems to believe they have to laugh at his not funny patter. Oh, and why does he have to shout all the time? Judging by all the very negative comments/reviews, it seems his hosting of this show (which in itself is a good format and fun to try to work out the questions) is going to be somewhat short lived.

I was looking forward to this show. It's not a straight out knowledge based show like The Chase, it's also about using common sense as well. When I watch the Australian version, I just want Jim Jeffiers to shut up with his stupid jokes. It's so hard to concentrate and think of the answers when with him yapping away nonstop. His voice is irrating. The only way you can enjoy this is to the TV on MUTE and turn on the subtitle.

The British version is so much better. The host is Lee Mack is a way better comedian and a more suitable host for the show.

I hope channel seven will change the host. If not this season, the next season.

Came to watch this Australian version after loving the UK one but the host is so bad and why does the show need to be so crass? It's a cheap, tired humour that isn't for the intelligent audience. I could understand if the demographics were young, silly simpletons but yes, change the host please. Also I wonder where they get the results from, ie who are they assessing to get the % samples?

Overall if you mute the show and just do the quizzes it's a great show. There is a pattern to the questions but it's still very entertaining. Hope to see more of the UK version soon also if they are running it.
