Cronica Cârcotaşilor (IPA: [kro.'ni.ka kɨr.ko.'ta.ʃi.lor], approximate English translation: The Naggers' Show) is a weekly satire show on Prima TV hosted by Şerban Huidu and Mihai Găinuşă.

Loosely based on the Italian entertainment program Striscia la notizia, Cronica Cârcotaşilor ridicules various celebrities from the current Romanian political, media and showbiz scene by exposing their stupidity, hypocrisy or their poor grammar skills, as seen on TV.

The main features of the show are:

  • the latest bloopers of the news presenters, politicians or other celebrities
  • several sketches based usually on current events of interest
  • the last week's top 3 TV bloopers or ridiculous sequences from different TV shows (Top Ruşinică, approximate English translation: Shamy-Shame Top 3 or Hall of Shamy-Shame)
  • short dance breaks performed by the 2 young and attractive bebeluşe (Romanian for "baby girls"); similarly to the Striscia la notizia's veline, one is blonde and the other brunette
  • an ironic peek behind the curtains of the fashion and showbiz scene, featuring the snobbish and labile character Cătălin Dezbrăcatu' (Cătălin the Naked, played by the actor Codruţ Chegeş), an obvious satire on the Romanian fashion designer Cătălin Botezatu.

Cronica Cârcotaşilor won the Romanian Association of Television Professionals Award for Parody in 2002 and for Entertainment in 2003.
