    The corn ball sound effects in the previews ruin a really enjoyable show

    I am not one who watches those reality shows. I saw my first episode of Big Brother this last season. This show had me gasping for air laughing.

    Those cheesy corn ball sound effects in the previews of the commercials had me grimacing at the thought of watching this show. I could not have been more wrong. The BIG BALLS will have you on the floor. And to watch people spin around really fast and then have to do something that requires major coordination that would be difficult stone cold sober will put more than a smile on your face.

    If you want to watch something silly, fast moving and enjoyable give this show a shot. I was calling people I know to get them to watch.

    When all is said and done it isn't just a joke it requires some true physical fitness, endurance, coordination and being able to think on your feet... and think after being dumped into a salad spinner.

    One Of The Only Things I Like On Tru TV

    Boy! Is this a good show! I like to watch it when I'm sick, have had a tough day, or just when it's on. I don't know where to start, uhhhh... How about John Henson, huh? He's an interesting character. Really makes me wonder, is he really like that? I hope not. He's been on Austin and Ally on Disney Channel as Austin's dad and I think his performance on this show smashes the one on Disney. But that's just me. John Anderson, however, he seems like Henson's opposite, but they work like a specially crafted team on Wipeout. You guys probably know this, but why did Jill Wagner take a break on the show? I haven't heard about that. Personally, I like Jill more than Vanessa Lachey, even though she only had a short time as host. Anyway... They have come up with interesting nicknames for the contestants, and they made me crack up sometimes. The show starts with 24 contestants, and you don't see all of them attempt the course, but you are able to see the best performances. Just as funny and ridiculous as some of the contestants are some of the obstacles along the way. People get hurt, but not really, and it seems the body shouldn't bend that way in some instances. This was a short review compared to my recent reviews, but thanks for reading!

    The contestants make the show

    This is a game show where contestants compete in a ridiculous obstacle course. John Henson and John Anderson give comedic relief playing commentators of this game. Jill Wagner is the fun on-the-field 'reporter'. She has a fine time. Vanessa Lachey replaced her for a season, and just wasn't as funny as Jill.

    While it's funny to see people get smacked in the head, it does get old. The good thing is the contestants are always new. The crazier they are the better the show. And that's the only reason to watch this after a couple of years. It's not that original to see yet another guy take it in the nuts. But make that guy an idiot with a dancing addiction and it becomes hilarious.

    Was Great, then.....

    Used to be SUCH a great show. Then they went on an extended hiatus, then they changed times, days, channels. This is when America loses interest. Hollywood: Take note, this is why all those great shows in the 90s fail. Friends was a top hit for 10 years. Why? It remained in the same channel, same days, same time. Going to flop again, hard. Replacing a great cast with boring, unfunny "names" is not going to help. Too bad Hollywood can't put their own egos aside to listen to the American people for what they want.

    Wholesome laughs for one and all

    The contestants are having fun, the three hosts are having fun, the entire film crew is surely having fun -- so one can't help but laugh along with them.

    Take a break from the daily grinds of life and watch some good sports being 'wiped out' by an ever-changing series of obstacles and challenges.

    I was recently at a family gathering -- ages 8 to 72 -- and all were enjoying an episode of this show. I quickly laughed along.

    'Wipeout' is often in re-runs. Watch it if you can. What the heck!
