Very enjoyable.
Sleepin_Dragon2 May 2020
It seems to have been a show that people either instantly like, or loathe. I thoroughly enjoyed it, my family didn't.

It's been great to see The Chasers all together, their banter with Bradley is great as always. There is a good energy, a bit of excitement, I feel like they've taken inspiration from Millionaire.

You had to laugh at the contestant who made the Dr Who jibe, poor Bradley.

A decent effort to make The Chase fast paced, 7/10.

The clock seems random as does questions
allanmichael304 January 2021
There are some hard questions and then easy ones and its random, so chasers look stupid and a contestant lost (90,000) as he messed up 3 questions in a row and chasers had 1 second left. The amount of chasers make no difference as time to answer really is not that great, no time to think. Its like speed up of regular chase.

Much better than the other tiresome format

More entertaining and we get to see all the chasers on one table. This should take over from The boring Chase

Shouty, dumbed-down version for prime time
mformoviesandmore4 May 2020
Compared to The Chase, there are far fewer questions asked and lot more shouting and flashing lights.

This is the dumbed-down version for prime time. There is even the forced 'comments' from a chaser or two as a contestant walks on.

The tension comes from the clock counting down as questions switch between the contestant and the chasers, of whom only one answer can be accepted.

Anything over 40 seconds seems to be the danger zone.

Do I like it enough to watch again? No.

Not as good as The Chase
mark_julia4 January 2021
Bradley is excellent as usual and I love quiz shows but the format doesn't seem to work as well as The Chase and please, no more of the The Chasers' cheesy comments to each other when the contestant makes their entrance!

Carry on Chasers
safenoe22 January 2021
I like The Chaser (the American one was even worth watching) but Beat the Chasers plays to the live audience in a Carry On way that would make Kenneth Williams and Sid James blush. The double entendres come at you with no realy hint of subtlety, along with the audience guffaws.

Less of the double entendres and more questions please.

Could you beat the chasers?
studioAT30 April 2020
An entertaining new spin-off from the much loved daytime ITV quiz, that sees people for the first time take on all 5 chasers.

It's all good fun, and proves to be an enthralling watch.

Mispronunciation
bwmcg7 January 2021
Brad just told the Chasers that they lost a point because of MISPRONOUNCIATION. See what he did there?

Better than the original?
jpbrandwood1 April 2021
Well I enjoy it more but in some ways it isn't. Although I love it a bunch and you can get through a lot of contestants instead of having the same team or contestants competing, which is quite unique. You get through a contestant in about 10 to 15 minutes, which can help if you need something to do and watch a bit of a game show beforehand and want it to feel complete.

Great show with great people!
hack_it_52 April 2022
I think people forget how a show like this has to operate in order for it to function properly. They do a great job making contestants have a fair shot at winning some money and it's pretty entertaining. As opposed to the original show, this has multiple high-stakes chases in it, so it's more exciting. I hope they keep filming these!
