I don't think this is in good taste at all. Some people fail to remember they're still young people who don't deserve to be talked about it in this way. They way they talk about Emma verges on perverse, IMO. They don't deserve to be talked about in such a crass manner, not at their age.
Some of it was funny, but that guy and his awful British accent (very few people actually speak like that) deserves to have tomatoes thrown at him.  Or at least that's what they might have done in the Middle Ages.

:/ sorry but that was just very odd and not in the slightest bit funny. As if a scary lookin man like that would even think to bring crude points along about actors as young as dan, rupert n emma.
It comes across as sick and well....sick. That wasn't even worth posting on this web-site
on a lighter note...HI EVRY1!

guys...gals...just choose a new topic to complain about. This is very very dumb thing to get angry at. It doesn't directly affect you at all, and i doubt the actors even care. So just relax and take a breather.

Heh. That video is hilarious. It definatly isn't for kids. but it's still too funny. If I was one of the actors, I'd think it was funny too. But that's just me.

That was just mean. He doesn't look to old.He is growing up with the charachter of Harry Potter.That was vile! They are only 14-15 how rude is that? Picking on kids! They can't even defend themselves. That was a disgrace.I am ashamed that went out onto the air! I can see picking on adults,but that was just horrible! And yes,it was deffinetly just for adult audiences. Or immature adults and teens. I can't believe that people can be that cruel. Bashing kids, Harry Potter has inspired so many good things. Teaching kids in school while relateing to Harry Potter. Teaching and getting kids to read, haveing them spend time useing their imagination, and haveing them watch movies that are fun to watch. Parents don't have to worry about "passionate" love seens or extreme language.Yes Ron does say "Bloody Hell" a bit,but other than that,it's really not that bad. Those adults are just to thick to understand that Harry Potter is a fun,good thing. They probably don't understand Harry Potter in the first place. If thats what comedians to get paid for a liveing,bashing on kids,than that is sick, and wrong. How can they go to sleep at night knowing that they made fun of kids? They were probably the picked on kids in highschool and are now getting retaliation on something that they know nothing about....That was a very poor atempt to be funny,if they want to pick on something go pick on Gigli or whatever it was,not kids in a good movie.

That video was just so perversed. I mean the way they talk about the actors is terrible. I feel especially sorry for Dan and Emma who got the worst of it. I mean if were them i would be quite angry about what they had to say. Im sur that all of the people featured on it had to go through puberty once in their lives also and they should know how horrible it feels. They should maybe all go and get some lives. :/

I prefer intelligent humor - this is just crass. Just goes to show comedy has gone downhill. I don't think people should have to accept that this is good taste if they don't think it is - there's nothing wrong with good clean jokes. This is the sort that pretends to be mature when it really couldn't be further from that.

................. I really don't know what to think of it....... it was funny until some point they went too far with the "abracadabra-bra" thing if I was Emma I would feel extremly embarrassed if I'd watch something like that :/ but anyway it was funny, I don't know what do the media expect, they seem to think that as they're playing the hp characters which are kids, they should remain kids 4ever?? it is not Pter Pan who never grew! it's Harry Potter in every book JK talks about how harry even though is older is skinny and that ron gets lankier every year, whatdo they want? they want jk to say "Harry was very skinny, he had grown a few inches, Ron was a lot more taller but still as lanky as ever and Hermion¨¦'s breast had grown during summer" PLEASE!!!!! She can't write something like that! most of the lil kids (such as my sis) would be like  when they read that!
The video was funny but not for kids to watch it and they DID crossed the line with the Hermione thing
