You know that stupid Wipeout show that ABC has been advertising for close to 2 months? It was on last night, we recorded it, and it ROCKS! American Gladiators can’t hold a candle to this show. There are 24 contestants competing through the first obstacle course. The 12 fastest move on to the next round where they have to jump over a rotating bar. The first 6 to get knocked off are out, and the final 6 move on. Two more get kicked out in another event, until the final four proceed to the ultimate obstacle course where the winning time gets $50k.

When I started to watch the show I had super low expectations. They had two announcers, which I thought was odd, but as it turns out, they make fun of the contestants the entire show, and it’s hilarious. Unlike American Gladiators they are showing someone running an obstacle course almost the entire show with very little downtime. The funniest part is that most of the obstacles are downright impossible, but it’s awesome watching people try and fail.

It’s on Tuesday at 8pm on ABC, so check it out. We also started to watch the Japanese gameshow one, and it was terrible. Do not waste your time.
