Biography
Chris Taylor co-founded The Chaser, an Australian comedy collective that defined early-2000s satirical television. Born 15 July 1973 in Sydney, he co-wrote and performed on CNNNN (2002–2003), the show that established the group's signature style—absurdist takes on news and politics. Taylor's role extended across broadcast media: he co-hosted the Triple J drive show Today Today (2004–05) with Chaser member Craig Reucassel, and in 2007 wrote the musical comedy Dead Caesar. The Chaser's War on Everything (2006–July 2009), which Taylor helped shape, became the group's flagship, running for multiple seasons on ABC Television. In 2010, Taylor and Andrew Hansen created The Blow Parade for Triple J—a musical comedy podcast that reached number one in the country and won the 2010 ARIA Award for Best Comedy Release. More recently, Taylor shifted toward drama: in 2019 he created and co-wrote Upright, a comedy-drama series starring Tim Minchin. As a screenwriter and performer, Taylor blends comedy writing with character work across television, radio, and audio. Born under Cancer, his career reflects the sign's capacity for emotional depth beneath sharp wit [birth]. Taylor also hosted the mini documentary series Australia's Heritage: National Treasures.
