[Closed] I love All New Total Wipeout! Am I wrong in the head?

Do you enjoy eastenders and deal or no deal as well?

It's the Saturday evening entertainment program of choice in the Smarty household 😆

It would be better without that stupid **** hammond.

It cracks me up - especially the added sound effects.

We love it too! Straight after You've Been Framed!
It's great to get stupid!

No mate, never [i]that[/i] stupid.

No, in fact I can't stand most 'lowest-commion denominator' TV, such as soaps, gameshows etc. If I watch something like those two programmes, it feels like what little intelligence I might possibly have is being sucked from my mind by a vacuum cleaner.

Which is why it surprises me that this silliness is so appealing to me. Can't work it out.

It is such fun though. I'd love to have a go. 😀

[watch it with the kids but Hammond is absolutely awful are they his own [s]jokes[/s] drivel
Entetaining in the same rubbish way that Gladiators was with funnier falls

+1 Elfin, id love also to have a go, but it would appear you have to be somewhat "zany" to get on !!

My favourite is on at half past 8...

likey!

It's great to get stupid!

Glad it's not just me!

It's Saturday tea-time telly. It's not meant to be the intellectual stimulation or challenge of an arts documentary or Mastermind. It's the lightest of light entertainment.

Like, a Dale Winton quiz show thing has just come on, and that's bin turned off, because I can't stand watching people get the simplest of questions wrong. How dense do you need to be to qualify for such programmes?

I'm quite surprised at myself tbh. I thought I was a sophisticated, urbane, erudite young mayn with quite discerning taste.

Tonight I have bin reduced to a dribbling hysterical moron for an hour, and I've loved every minute! 😀

Elbow's a bit hurty though...

You know what, I can't be bothered.

Fantastic show. Only miserable ****ers who take themselves too seriously can't see that

It's one of the best things on telly. I love the slow mo replays of them smacking their faces into some bouncy foam thingy. I have literally spit food out laughing so hard. Love it.

Hope your elbow gets better.

I'm not even embarrassed to say I love it.

I have a mate who actually records it. He is big on Schadenfreude.

My wife was away with work a few weeks back and I knew I was set for a great evening - wine, pizza and total wipeout on iplayer... superb! I like Hammond, I like Amanda, basically I'm up for all of it, fantastic!

I love the slow mo replays of them smacking their faces into some bouncy foam thingy

Those are the best bits! The more painful it looks, the better!

You know what, I can't be bothered.

It would be foolish to argue with the Truth. 🙂

Best thing on TV

although its a Takeshi`s Castle wannabe
its still a right laugh eh 🙂
get in there ......

it could be ace, but's ruined by hammond (i'm told the yank version is better). compare it with craig charles' commentary on Takeshi's Castle - his well-meaning enthusiasm made it engaging, whereas hammond's too busy making sure we know that he knows the whole thing's naff. seems to slow the tempo too much with the sporadic, sneering voice-over. if they dug up Kriss Akabusi (grimacing as i type, it's only an example) to do the job he'd improve it. similar principle to canned laughter (well, exactly the same really, eh?) the host finding it all widdle-yourself funny transmits to the audience.
I'd really like to like it, but it's re-runs of Takeshi ruling the roost on my telly box..

#edit# hi-5 to the fellow takeshi-ite

I love All New Total Wipeout! Am I wrong in the head?

yeh, it's great

yeh, quite probably 😉

i said this last weekend while i was away at a biking weekend with the lads

they mocked me!

Well they are naught but fools, Kimbers.

kids love it in our house, I'll admit it makes me chuckle/wince (delete as appropriate)

Do they really go to Argentina to film it?

[s]I love All New Total Wipeout![/s] Am I wrong in the head?

Yes.

I spose that could be seen as a seperate statement, then a question. 🙂

Not going to dispute it.

kids love it here too. Only thing that I don't like is that as soon as I leave the room the youngest is throwing herself off the arm of the settee onto a pile of cushions.

Don't worry, it's not a professional opinion. More of an educated guess. 😉

It'd be even betterer if stuart hall replaced the hampster.

its takeshi's castle with health and safety involved, therefore rubbish.

I love it - as do the kids

Could not stop laughing tonight when that blonde girl got sort of swept up by the big spinny thing

great show, i've never been tempted to go on any show in my life, but i'm bursting for a shot of the courses! 😀

It would be fun, woon't it? I'd love to give it a go.

Only thing that I don't like is that as soon as I leave the room the youngest is throwing herself off the arm of the settee onto a pile of cushions.

Excellent! 🙂

How old is your little one? I'm almost 39, and I still feel the same way!

4

Secretly I wish we had more cushions so i could have a go too. I'm nearly 42.

Jeez, it's 3am am and we're discussing soft furnishings......

Have you ever seen the Japanese version which is commentated on by two Americans? Absolutely the funniest thing on TV.

Ah - a quick Google reveals that one's called "Most Extreme Elimination Challenge", but is basically TW.
