The Late Show was responsible for many great comedy moments, but Bargearse has to stand tall as their greatest feat before Frontline. While epitomising low brow humour, the fart jokes and toilet humour present here left me in stitches for the entire duration of the film, and the only criticism that can be levelled at it is it is just too short, although it must be said that these types of jokes are only funny for so long, and it would be better to leave the audience wishing for more rather than wishing it was over.
The movie itself is cut and paste footage from the 70's cop show Bluey, overdubbed by the Late Show crew and turned into a cop drama and the obese and eternally hungry Sergeant Bargearse and his sidekicks Glenn Twenty and Anne Bourke. The jokes come thick and fast, and always at a base level, from the famous Dutch oven to the sagas of the missing fries, chinese takeaway and missing supplies of exotic chocolate. From start to finish this is hilarious, not one joke falls flat on its face, and you'll need to watch it several times over just to get all the jokes in there, as the rapid pace ensures you'll miss a few jokes here and there while still laughing at the previous scene. A great comedy, don't take it too seriously and you'll definitely love it.
