These non guest episodes really showcase the great chemistry they have together. The convo flows so easily and they’re always really enjoyable.

[@LarissaShepherd]

Yes I prefer it honestly, I never know who the guests are anyway

[@CrushedParadise]

I think you forgot to change the title

[@kaptainzdragon5478]

Imagine if Brandi's Cinderella was filmed today with all the social internet media outrage.

[@poisonkiss201]

Lol true, and that's my fav version of Cinderella.

[@RoraUndercover]

totally agree with comments about little mermaid. i remember when raya the last dragon and even as an adult, i was shocked at how nice it felt to see a southeast asian girl on screen. can’t imagine how happy little black girls were!

[@sexysimon1114]

True. Let's make black panther white ❤🥰

[@DaFlavourFace]

OHH SHITTTT this that Final V! Thanks NoChaser 187 💯💯💯

[@shishio3284]

I have a feeling this wasn't supposed to go up yet😂

[@Jasonyerface]

14:12 It's definitely a double-edged sword. I used to be able to go out for Japanese, Taiwanese, Filipino, Thai roles, etc. But now I would never get considered or sent out for those since casting breakdowns are very specific. I've potentially lost several opportunities because of it. I think we've increased access to a larger pool of talent (good) while simultaneously thinned the quantity of roles available at the individual level (not so good).

[@_Maxten]

i love the idea of using "do you swang" as the equivalent to "do you hoop" but golf version lmao

Realest talk ever about the mermaid convo. Everyone should have the same mindset about it. But it’s life

[@BryanFury85]

Rick is actually wearing colors this episode...👏👏👏

[@nycxed521]

word

[@Euphoria7705]

What makes productions like The Woman King and Black Panther nice is that they specifically hire people of colour for costuming, writing production, animation etc. It would be nice if people want to honor a culture either by portraying a character that is not the same [insert label] as the actor or creating a movie centering around a certain country and it's people, its nice when at least those people are hired for jobs related to that production. As an artist hearing stories of black getting their dream job working on lets say Soul or Princess and the Frog is just as important as the film as well.

[@NewLifeMoves]

The funniest thing is that "boto" is the EXACT translation for vagina in my part of the world. so hearing y'all call each other boto this episode was extra fun

[@kshinokevin]

Boto : ah Yes, it's the Hawaiian Pidgin English for a Guy/Dude's "D#&$."

[@user-vx7xe5hr1v]

[@flavanthensome]

Cinderella has been black, latinx, blonde, brunette, and has been re-done like 15 times. Nobody lost their mind about that.

[@Valerie_H]

that's so true. im lost why people draw the line at a mermaid

[@TheIgnorantNoodle]

I was going to say Tim had American Dragon Jake Long as representation for Asian American on television then I remembered that he was also played by Dante Basco.

[@erickadame3153]

Well he still has Prince Zuko. Oh wait...

[@WYDD82]

Ricky Shucks dropped some real gems in this one. The funniest part was when he spoke about the girl who did the cool move on ice skates and said "that's Nikki" 🤣 the real MVP in this episode goes to Rick!

[@miaarchibald3365]

Are we gonna talk about Tim's hoochie daddy shorts and crocs??😂😂😂

[@drubbie54]

James franco is playing fidel castro! I think thats more baffling then a black girl playing ariel.

[@MiiSTAFAB]

Why “ fix “ that isn’t broke?! My thing is there’s nothing wrong with the original character…. Now they casted a “ black “ actor to please the black community! Let’s keep it real! Why did they have to do that

[@mikecolts21]

Nikki and David’s basketball game needs to be filmed!!

[@JstnOn]

Coming from a Filipino, “boto” is prolly where it came from. Cuz that’s the exact definition when used back in the Philippines 😂😅

[@BryanFury85]

Love when Nicky spazzes out on the "fake golfers" lol

[@damnthisall]

What i don't get is why, if they are choosing to diversify these disney movies, why didnt they change the race for the other princess films?? Like from all the other live-action films that they sorta followed the storyline they kept the races the same as the story, well then whats the point of making Princess Tiana then??

[@JoshuaPark505]

The black little Mermaid reminds me of the backlash Scarlett Johansson got for Ghost in the Shell. People be dumb

[@ThisIsntNaomi]

When I say I clicked on this video so fast!! Don't scare me like this it's too early in the AM lol. This one of the only things that help keeps me up at work, don't take away my nice things 😅🤣

[@breannawatson3596]

Ricks fit this episode looking fly😮‍💨

[@alyssaaguirre8233]

It’s the fact that grown ass adults are pressed about a movie that isn’t even supposed to be for them, we have our original movie the one we watched as kids and it was great, this new one isn’t for US it’s for the new generation of kids growing up, being able to see something that’s more inclusive, I haven’t seen one kid react to the trailer and hate that she was black, they love it, and that’s all that matters to me at least

No Chaser Episode 187 Final Version

[@berserk____1878]

It's understandable that throughout hollywood white main characters are prevalent and people are unnecessarily mad about black Ariel, Halle Bailey is gonna kill it for sure. Diversity/inclusivity matters. However, people always talk about respecting cultures and the little mermaid is European culture/dutch fairy tale and Ariel is white. Context matters. If an Indian man turns up in Winterfell, I'm gonna question that shxt. If you start changing things that people are used to like white redhead Ariel, of course, people are gonna be mad. There's a reason stories like Black Panther, Encanto and Turning Red are popular with no controversy...

[@jessicanarciso3467]

Jonnytsunami808 is the guy who does the “this is how we say it in hawaii” vids. Love him.

[@seyaresmati7320]

This the final version yall

[@VieraXXII]

For those people saying kids don't see race. Please 1st be open to the possibility that not everyone grew up like you did. 2nd read/and look up different studies/ experiments showing kids as young as four y.o. can identify different races/ethnicities, AND the prejudices associated with them.

[@bellaangel4422]

Race is a learned American taxonomy. A young child knows about race, as you stated, due to their parents shoving it down their throat. The taxonomy still exists because people continue to feed the fire. Prejudices are also learned in your home environment. Your thoughts and beliefs are not everyone else’s. Side Note: Mermaids are Scandinavian Folklore and the person playing the live action should be of Scandinavian Descent. 💗 This was culturally insensitive for Disney to cast the wrong Actors for this particular folklore.

[@kuunami]

They're mad because there are black people in Lord of the Rings and game of Thrones too. Fragile people have Fragile egos.

[@bellaangel4422]

Hahaha Umm Whoopi would disagree with you.

[@janidang90]

I appreciated this episode! Thanks NCG, thanks for the giggles, and smiles #fromAKwithlove

[@JordanReedYT]

No Chaser crew, what most people fail to understand is Little Mermaid is based on a European fairytale, so if you want diversity why don’t you use more diverse stories. Disney doesn’t care about diversity of actual stories or telling the history of other cultures because they don’t see it as profitable. Instead they chose to reboot a tried and true IP and milk it. This is the same level of virtue signaling as gender swapped movies, with terribly renovated plots.

[@ryanodagawa]

You said it better than I could have. I just feel like it’s piggybacking off an established character instead of creating a new character and getting praise for its own merits. It just seems so forced.

[@kshinokevin]

Tim could replace Dante Basco if "Fakin' The Funk" (1997) had a sequel; Nicole Scherzinger (Pussycat Dolls group & the "Masked Singer" tv game show) is: Hawaiian + mixed plate. Like a Tia Carrere and/or Bruno Mars. (Idris Alba, I could imagine him as a new James Bond. I didn't knew that he was British ! More Power to that Chap, then.)

[@CH3Rx]

Funny you mention Scarlett Johansson. She in fact did play as a white lady in an Asian movie. Ghost in Shell.

[@kuyaadobo3794]

I think “boto” comes the ilocano dialect. A lot of Filipinos live in Hawaii and most of them are ilocanos. Could’ve been picked up from them. That’s my guess

[@user-vx7xe5hr1v]

I am tired of race changing characters. As a black man, i would like them to come out with NEW characters. Give us a new disney princess that wasnt a frog for 60% of the movie

For me, I don’t care if Ariel is black but I would had preferred if she had redder hair and red lips because these are the characteristics of Disney’s Little mermaid’s Ariel.

[@g5888anthony]

Food for thought: They made The Avatar and Goku white in those movies, and we were “allowed” to be upset for those…

[@flavanthensome]

Nikki, in the upcoming Peter Pan and Wendy, Tinkerbell is being played by Yara Shahidi.

[@shiaxiong1485]

But if Tiana was white though. Lol, conversation starter.

[@KimmyKon]

So Nikki is going to play Nicole in her biopic right....

[@supimsatan]

I disagree with the Black little mermaid. You would not let Aladdin play by a white person. It's just not how the cartoons were. Pretty sure a black cartoon played by fictional black main character and they change him/her to a white person, im pretty sure people would be mad about it.

[@Not_The_Momma]

Love the crocs Tim

[@ColderThanU]

Tinkerbell is black now had to comeback to this😂

[@Dubiously907]

Boto sounds like Buto. Buto is penis in Kapampangan, a Filipino language 😂

[@Aznchonny1]

Can you guys just do a whole section of No-Chaser just all of you saying lines in a country accent?? lolllll🤣😂

[@brianvillamor8839]

Ayy Tim you hung out with my Mom, love ya man

[@anubiisdoesthiis]

So instead of making new stories with new characters we're supposed to be happy/accepting leftovers? My understanding of equal representation means instead of simply throwing in a black pilot in say, a Star Wars movie, we get a brand new space adventure with black crew members. It's not enough to put a black person in the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon or The Enterprise. Give us a brand new ship. This isn't equality/justice. This is exploiting an underpresented market purely for profit.

[@sepulfan02]

I do understand a little bit with people being put off by the change the character has had a consistent look for over 30 years but also it dumb to be angry. Truthfully if you're a millennial guy you were likely called a girl or a slur if you liked the movie

[@Custom_Cosmic]

Ricky looks so fly in that fit

[@KD0083]

nicole scherzinger really is the only person that kind of looks like Nikki Blades

[@asiangirllovespink]

I mean, Tim did sound like Theo Von.

[@Coolmist_]

Its not color for me. Its just a change of a character that has been the same ever since it was created and just randomly changed out of nowhere. Triss from The Witcher for an example. Also Celebrimbor from Rings of Power(comparing it to the shadow of war game). I will of course watch and support my favorite characters. Ik Halle Bailey will crush it and wish her the best.

[@JordanReedYT]

I heard China Anne McClain was in the mix but didn’t get it. Also, Disney has much better actresses who can sing just as well or better, but they skipped them as well.

NC 187 ftw

[@SupJenni]

Bad Bunny is some of the biggest Latino representation we’ve seen in a long time and I respect him for the greatly but I still feel a bit salty he consistently takes Mexican roles. Idk if I’m being too picky but I wish the first Mexican Marvel character was being played by a Mexican.

[@jenniferlle]

Actress Emily blunt (a quite place) is British but I’ve always assumed she was American. She has a good American accent.

[@nathanielramos1916]

Boto/Buto is Ilocano 😂 It’s one of the Filipino language

[@user-vx7xe5hr1v]

T᷈h᷈a᷈n᷈k᷈s᷈~~

[@it_me_jms2002]

I just remember that most of my life buto meant penis and I’m ilicano (specific dialect in the Philippines). Just talked with my family and they said that most of the farmers in Hawaii are either ilicano or Japanese. Thus a mixture of a lot of different languages that become the local Hawaiian language.

[@sosmcs]

Kids don’t see race so chill people. This focus from the parents like the mom u talked about is what’s gonna make them notice it

[@VieraXXII]

What makes you think that? Kids as young as four can identify not only race, but prejudices attached to those races...

[@bellaangel4422]

Truth

[@Dylamos]

Yeah it's stupid, I think most people who are mad about this are just upset that they changed her character as a means to be woke. But they're missing the point that they intentionally wanted to diversify roles. Unironically this is definitely a change for nonsense woke culture but this is what the company wants so why are they mad?

[@bellaangel4422]

Incorrect, it was culturally insensitive and prejudice for Disney to cast the wrong actress for the role. Disney needed to create an African Folklore Movie for African Decent Actors for this to be right.

[@daveagard1884]

They just racist bro, that’s it

[@Euphoria7705]

Anything progressive is being submissive and being "woke" I dont understand those people's mentality. Like people become so vile when they realize equality means changing how we treat other people.

[@flypenguin007]

That dancer (I think) recently passed. R.I.P. Much love

[@justinmallari6137]

Boto is filipino, but fosho a staple in pidgin

I’d prefer there be more diverse characters than changing an original one to please today’s agenda.
