What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Chevy Chase Show is a late night dud that even insomniacs will want to skip, hobbled by lame jokes, an unprepared lack of structure, and a nervous host who appears uncomfortable before a live audience.

Jay Boyar Orlando Sentinel May 30, 2019
The program -- a flop-sweat fest, if ever there was one -- was so pathetic that Chase was reduced to making lame jokes about his own demise. And no one was laughing. Go to Full Review Jason Bailey Uproxx May 29, 2019
It was terrible. Despite his hours of TV time and (usually) masterful comic timing, Chase never looked anything resembling comfortable. Go to Full Review Verne Gay Newsday May 29, 2019
Viewers may recall a vomit scene in the premiere: a pitch-perfect comment on the show itself. Go to Full Review Diane Holloway Austin American-Statesman Feb 1, 2021
By the end of the hour, it was starting to stink. We're talking dud here, a painful-to-watch disaster of epic proportions. Go to Full Review Marilynne S. Mason Christian Science Monitor May 29, 2019
As it turns out, running a successful late-night talk show does require skill. It may look easy for any good clown, but not everyone can do it: certainly not Chevy Chase. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Daniel D @RT44967087 Sep 15, 2022 This show was worse than bad. It was unwatchable. Chevy Chase had no business hosting a talk show. That wasn't his strength. He wasn't a comedian in the traditional sense. He wasn't an interviewer either. He was a comic actor, and he had serious problems with cocaine and prescription drugs...perhaps even during the time he was making this show. It would explain a lot. See more Read all reviews
