Wipeout

[Qrazy]

No, it's the new reality show where they send 10 culturally ignorant middle America morons to Japan to compete in one of Toho's gameshows. It's not just a gameshow, they actually Real World these pogo-stick brainfarts sitting around in a Japanese hostel surrounded by a Japanese staff who cook for them, etc. as they make "funny" ignorant comments about Japanese culture. As if it wasn't bad enough that they're now outsourcing gameshows.

Ouch.

I have to say I kind of like the concept of Wipeout I just hate the announcers and the general execution.

So why would you post in a thread about it?

So why would you post in a thread about it?

Um, to register my opinion on shows like Wipeout? I don't see the point of your question.

And I don't see the point of your post. It's the same as if you posted in the Wall-E discussion thread saying "I don't watch animation, so no I haven't seen it.".

It's not like the thread is asking "Who's watching Wipeout?" and you responded.

This isn't a reality show anyway, it's a game show. Contestants compete to win $50,000. And it's new contestants every episode.
