PAUL HENRY... PLAYN UP LOL

[severe]

[Jigga]

this was one of the greats .... oh and IMO Ali is way hotter than Pippa.

WOW that was hot the way she said "please don't"

reminded me a little bit of jenna haze.

[Jigga]

This guy gets about 4 million views on all his videos and he reviewed the Paul Henry clip... Fark Paul makes us look dumb. I like juvinile humour as much as the next guy but Paul isn't funny and f*ck he has an annoying laugh. The DikShit thing may have been funny if he didn't laugh for 10mins over it. The only thing he said that I found mildly funny was his racist comment "DickInShit"

[Optimass]

Having read the article in the Herald I think the biggest concern is the reference to the Gov Gen not looking of sounding kiwi - and the fact that he asked it with a completely serious look on his face. The reference to the name and the other gaffs is basically elevating this particular incident.

I thought the herald put some good perspective on the "What does kiwi look and sound like" concern by interviewing migrants that had been here for many years.

Interesting that they didn't interview any that were currently unemployed, or on a benefit.

Paul Henry handed in his resignation today :cry:

[Ronin]

Yet another example of Political Corectness gone waaaaay the f*ck too far. How ridiculous that we as a nation should be reprimanded by, and then have to apologise to, another nation because someone on one of our TV shows made fun of someone elses's name. How many people worldwide took the piss out of George Dubya? Hands up who didn't make jokes about how ugly Helen Clark was? What the f*ck next?

You wana offend India Bomb making/terorrism/extremists...especially while our athltes are over there..wasnt great timing...

[weener lad]

A sad day for TV no more Paul Henry = no more TV1 for me.

Someone here summed it up wright: To much PC bullshit in this country if you didn't laugh at the Dikshit comments you have zero humor. Everybody in that room was laughing with him.

[Peachy]

Kinda weird that you guys are so sad about it :-s

He is funny sometimes but most of the time Im laughing at him not with him coz he is such a freak. Like Jigga said its embarrassing to our country coz he isn't very witty and he laughs at his own jokes??

I think he forgets the demographic the show is aimed at. I only watch the show if Im at the gym and nothing better is on.

If he wants to take the piss outa people he needs to watch Chelsea Lately and learn how to do it in an actual funny way. And he needs to get better looking before he makes comments on the way other people look...

I am with agree with Peachy,Jigga and Vampire chick. I also find it very strange as well that most you guys are sad about Paul Henry leaving TV1.I thought Paul Henry was was very emarrassing to this country.When I was was watching the news on one tonight they had footage of Paul Henry resging and thought that was a good move also I didnt laugh at Paul Henry 's jokes when he took the piss out of other people.In future if Paul Henry want to make fun of other people but first he needs to watch some tapes of Rove or any other famous comdain plus he needs some help.

Maybe the jokes were just a little over your head.

Much like you needing to watch a Bodybuilding DVD to learn how to lift property. :pfft:

[BarBrother]

And he needs to get better looking before he makes comments on the way other people look...

Oh yeah...only good looking people can express there opinion..that makes sense :doh:

This is just a big over reaction. He shouldnt have said what he said but still you gta take what he says with a pinch of salt...

Just because he is offending minority groups its sooooo bad but when other people in more senior positions do the same about europeans....its ohk..

yeah.....

right.

F..K the Jews, theyve had their moment in the spotlight.

Uh no thats not what I said :roll: But hes a hypocrite if he is laughing at the way people look. And he is abusing his position of power because the people he makes fun off dont have tv shows to defend themselves on. He can say whatever he wants but not when on tv and representing the country. Just because alot of people might agree with him doesn't mean he should keep his job. Im pretty sure most employment contracts, no matter what the job is, have zero tolerance for racism, sexual harrassment and all the rest of it. He is well in breach of that.

[Specter]

Personally I would like to see fitness/bodybuilding shows on in that time slot instead of that breakfast show crap! Might actually be a incentive to help inspire lazy arses to do some exercise in the morning instead of chugging down green eggs and ham... :wink:

[cantygirl]

Paul Henry is my hero, there are to many anal people in this society and I for one applaud him and il never watch channel 1 again in the morning. Life is bloody short and its about time all those pain in the arses got off their soap boxes and had a bellyaching laugh. So shove that up your bazzucka

Wrong again, India has TV shows. how do you think they seen what he said.... maybe on a tv or do you think somone wrote a letter put it in a bottle and threw i in the sea and it reached india in 24 hours... maybe one of them tuna fish delivered it personally.

It's not that ugly people can't express their opinion but if you are going to rip on someone about how they look then you shouldn't be ugly yourself. I don't have a problem with a bit of mild racism said in jest but it was fucken rough on that chick with the moustache he embarassed on nationwide television. Like Opti said he is a shock jock. It's a delicate art being controversial without going too far, unfortunately Paul wasn't clever enough to fill that role. He was just tedious to watch at times.

I think she meant in general bro. He has made comments of others too, who dont have access to TV shows.

[tomsammce]

jigga = next breakfast host. lol

NO! what is the moustache women thinking... maybe she supporting ball cancer... poor bitch got her months mixed up lol.

that sorta stuff puts me off my food and has me dry reaching, Paul identified her MO and he persecuted it! job well done.

[Peachy]

FFS Tom of course India have tv shows but the people that he made fun of dont have their own one they host do they?? And this aint exactly the first person he has taken the piss out of. And he knows they wont stoop to his level and mock him back even if they could because they actually have a social conscience. Hes just like you. Love to mock people but cant handle it when someone does it back

I'm definitely not anal and I like to watch someone controversial on TV say things that news presenters wouldn't normally say but he needed a lot more wit and a bit more tact. I'm sure there are better candidates to fill his role as the "insensitive c*nt" out there.
