Jason and Karen is scripted nonsense, they were out only a few months ago they were seen at Browns in London laughing and joking over a dinner table!

Seriously how anyone can belief in this show any more after Todd Carty got through is anyone's guess!

The hair transplant went wrong. He appeared on This Morning saying he was coming out of the "bald closet", then started westing a hair piece again on the next series of Dancing on Ice.
He apparently had a severe allergic reaction to the glue they use in the process and had it removed after six months due to the pain.

He can never take a joke. When a contestant makes a non serious remark, he pokes his nose up in the air, purses his lips, rolls his eyes then comes back with a catty remark. Whereas when someone does that to Craig on Strictly, he rolls his eyes in a way to play along with the joke and then laughs about it. Craig is a good sport, Jason is a bad one. He takes everything personally and can't take a joke and then gets personal in response but in a more serious way.

And all that is before he's even commented on the performance. Again, Craig is the more "scary" judge but he gives relevant critique and keeps it about the performance without the need for getting personal which is so much more professional. Jason doesn't give helpful critique, just nasty remarks and then gets personal about the actual celeb in question which to me is totally unprofessional and unnecessary.
And also, a lot of the celebs that take part in Strictly have said that backstage, both before and after the shows, Craig is a really nice, friendly guy. But Jason seems to be the same when the cameras aren't rolling. From listening to what several of the celebs and professionals over the years have said, I get the impression he isn't very popular.

Jason is nasty for the sake of being nasty. His comments are not constructive or helpful, he's just rude and deeply unpleasant. Often he is quite personal in the things that he says and this is uncalled for, but he absolutely cannot take it back either. If you dish it out you need to learn to take it back.
He's like Katie Hopkins, in that he says different things just so he can get attention.

I much preferred Louis Spence on the panel, he was never unpleasant and his comments were constructive and helpful. Bringing back Jason was a huge mistake.
I agree. I didn't even like Louis Spence beforehand, but he toned down his OTT persona for the show and was constructive and never nasty with his comments. He came across much better than I thought he would.

I for one totally agree with Jason's comments. He speaks from so much experience....oh wait...I forgot...he has NO experience of skating whatsoever..does he! So what is he doing insulting those who find skating a little trickier than others? Maybe someone should point that out to Jason since the surgeon who transplanted all that hair clearly pierced his brain whilst he was at it.

Someone should also point out his childhood. It seems he was bullied for being gay according to his Wikipedia entry growing up in Victoria. So he has no right to insult people when he has been on the receiving end of hate.

In fact given we have four people on the panel it is surprising how little experience is amassed. It is only Robin who does have more than a credible degree of experience and skill. Karen Barber who is also quite corrosive with Todd doesn't exactly cover herself with glory. I am looking at her career in various competitions and frankly the better the competition the less well she does. Ashley Roberts has no experience of skating. Only pop music. And we all know how much skating Jason has done.

He's so nasty and offensive towards people. It's not being critical either. Itv bosses should stop it. Hopefully they don't use him after this?

I would just ask Jason to come and show me how it should be done. You would hear a pin drop.

Completely agree. I find myself asking myself why Jason hasn't been challenged long before now to see how he does with a pair of skates on.

He. Is. Told. To. Say. These. Things.

How many times does that have to be said before it sinks in?
