The 1% Club Australia

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.

The concept of this show isn't bad but this version of it is terrible (as opposed to the UK one with Lee Mack). Jim Jeffries is painfully unfunny and uncouth and most of the show is just inane chit-chat between him and the contestants. The only interesting part is the questions themselves but after watching a few shows even they are becoming a little too formulaic. Add to all that the slow drawn-out 'suspense' of finding out how many people got the latest question right. I record this hour long show now so I can fast forward through all the tedious & boring bits to get to the questions - it takes less than 10 minutes to watch that way.

The show is a great concept and can be very enjoyable if watching the UK version, but, the host Jim Jefferies on the Australian version he is too over the top, offensive, rude and, most of the time, not so funny at all. It's quite obvious that some contestants are offended by some of his insulting comments during the show and I don't blame them.

I for one have stopped watching the Australian show and started watching the UK version with Lee Mac, he is so much better and not offensive. He dosent need to refer or imply sexual suggestions or take aim and be offensive toward behavioural conditions or other stereo type professional, ethnic or racial backgrounds. I am not alone in my opinion and found through discussion that many of my close friends and family are of the same opinion and stopped watching the show because of Jim Jefferies.

Channel 7, please, please, PLEASE, find another host, this show could be so much better without Jefferies as the host. There are so many other great Australian show hosts to choose from that could easily fill the spot without the confronting nature that Jeffries applies to his supposedly funny lines.

To name a few, Tom Gleeson, Peter Hellier, Jackie O, Charlie Pickering, Andy Lee, Kitty Flanagan Ed Kavalee, Grant Denyer and many more could do a better job.

Change the host and lift the ratings to an 8 star of above with the right host. It has the potention to rate a lot higher than it does.

Love the UK version with Lee Mack. Very talented and quick witted. Easy to listen to. Was looking forward to our Australian version.

How disappointing to see and hear Jim Jeffries ruin the show.

We tried 2 episodes (forced ourselves). We now watch it with the sound off. It's a tad easier to watch.

His rude, crass insults are cringe worthy and not funny. I love a good joke and laugh but seriously this guy is 2nd rate for television. Whilst the contestants are trying to process the answers he doesn't shut up. You can see their faces and aren't impressed.

Keep the show and change the host. We have better talent here.
