    Laugh Out Loud - Side-Splitting TV hide show

    I was skeptical when my children started watching this show and encouraged me to watch it with them. I'm so glad I did! This show always makes me laugh. I know it's not good manners or politically correct to laugh at people hurting themselves – but while watching this show you just can't help it! John Anderson and John Henson are great commentators. They have good chemistry and play off of each other very well. Jill Wagner is cute and enthusiastic without coming across as obnoxious. Her facial expressions when interviewing some of the more eccentric contestants are priceless. She can't help but laugh out loud. I highly recommend watching this show - it's a great stress reliever! Good night and big balls…

    Rip off... hide show

    I cant really understand how anyone can find this show funny at all. It is really REALLY slow paced and the three hosts are incredibly dull to have to listen to. Everyone of the contestants are annoying and the "jokes" that are made through out the show are horrible It is a challenge to have to go through this show, mostly since you can very well tell that it is a cheap American rip off of the Japanese show MXC. Which by the way is MUCH better and funnier then this pile. i must say the show is extremely unoriginal and is laking anything enjoyable.

    24 contestants go through a grueling Wipeout course to win a cool $50,000. hide show

    I was one of the many viewers that watched this show when it premiered. Let's just say this show had me at "Hello." Hosts Johns Anderson(from ESPN's Sportscenter) and Henson makes this show a fun spectacle, with the contestants taking spills at anything anD everything, from the Big Balls to the Banana Hammocks, to the many variations of the Sweeper, whether it's the Classic sweeper or the one with Cows, this course and the contestants that participate in it make the show all to fun not to watch. I don't know if I'd ever participate in it myself, one thing's for sure: Wipeout is on the best shows on Network television. Pretty good for a weekly reality show.
