How did I miss this show? On ABC right now is a new stunt show called Wipeout. I hate to say it, but I wholeheartedly recommend it more than NBC’s Celebrity Family Feud. Both are good, but Wipeout is just more funny and entertaining. If you get bored of Feud, switch to ABC as soon as you can. Am I the only one watching it? Hopefully not.
Judging by the ratings, I’m not. It’s been stomping most things in its path since it started, and it deserves to. Obviously it’s not high class brainy entertaining. I love it because I can just sit back and laugh my ass off at people getting slammed in the face. Game play takes a step back for entertainment here, and so what? It’s very clear this is solely for entertainment, and if you’re watching for great game play, you might want to turn on Millionaire on GSN while Wipeout is showing.
All three hosts help make the show incredibly amusing as well. Really, the only thing I’d ask for is a bit more variety in stunts. An original complain was the opening course seems impossible to get through, but multiple people have made it through all the stunts so it’s apparently not. It’s not for everyone, it’s clear. However, it far trumps Celebrity Family Feud, it’s direct competition. It’s perfect summer fun, and truthfully it needs to stay like that.
