I'll never stop being an unfunny asshole, vows Chevy Chase

Chevy was a good-looking guy who helped make Vacation the classic it is.

Other than that, what an a-hole.

Do you think it bugs him that he's hit big before actors got the huge ridiculous salaries they now get?

Jim Carrey is worth $180mm, 3X what he's reported to be worth ($50mm). Even Bill Murray, another reputed asshole, is worth $180mm. Dan Aykroyd is worth $250mm.

He's nothing more than a relic.

His last enjoyable rolw was in Funny Farm. He's an asshole in it but the ensemble is terrific. An underrated film but not because of him.

Chevy chase is from a very wealthy family so I’m not sure he cares about money.

He’s a horrible pig of a human being, but I love Fletch and the Vacation movies. He was good in Community as well, he’s just an extremely bad person.

I know that his mother was an abusive cunt, but wow, he’s so obnoxious.

Is he just a horrible human being or is this some sort of mental illness, as well? Because wow. Can he never just STFU?

Community was the best thing he ever did.

What an unrelenting jackass.

He was exceedingly handsome in his youth, however.

He had a moment. That’s it. A moment. I look a career like Bill Murray’s An actual career.

Why the need to look back and denigrate? Just be kind. It’s gets you so much further in life.

He came out years back and said he was hurting for money.

I have to wonder if the physical and psychological abuse he suffered at the hands of his parents growing up somehow warped his personality. He seems to clearly not care if anyone likes him or not. That type of attitude usually comes from being raised by assholes.

I guess deep down somewhere there is a decent guy in there. He beat Bill Murray's ass in John Belushi's dressing room over some snide remarks Murray (another well known asshole) made about his relationship with his wife. But later made up with him before they starred together in Caddyshack.

Sadly people like him usually go through life not caring what people think of them until they reach advanced age and end up alone, having run all their friends and family off. By then it's usually too late to rectify the situation.

I heard Dan Aykroyd is a GAY

He was hot but I assume not a sizemeat carrier. Too insecure

He's a 14th generation New Yorker.

What kind of abuse did Chevy Chase suffer from his adoptive parents? Not arguing, just curious.

I’m team Chevy. Always.

It can be both, R6. Likely both in his case.

It pains me to see a talented guy turn out this way. What happened? I know he went to rehab in 2016 but I thought part of the process is admitting your own part in what went wrong.

Sorry that others of his era are more successful even if they are also jerks... they however, have had at least the good sense to try to keep that hidden or at least not be so blatant about it.

Sparky, we love you, get up! Stop the madness!

R20, that was dreadful.

Light banter is not in CC’s wheelhouse. At all.
