Stupid Fun

This show is really stupid. It's Wipeout on Wheels and speed. It's demolition derby meets truth or dare. It's Top Gear meets Amateur Night. I loved it. It was fast paced and quirky. The challenges are potentially life threatening and there is a winner at the end of the show. Don't call it a reality show; it's a game show. The contestant pairs are siblings, roommates, couples, etc. The all immediately give you a reason to either like them or dislike them. The challenges start out simple, and become progressively longer and harder, as they should. Since a team gets eliminated after each challenge, the pace stays quick. The contestants are well protected with crash helmets and harnesses, but you get an over all feeling of mounting danger. It's just very cool, stupid fun. If you like motor sport that results in a lot of crashing about, this is for you.

Crashing Cars = Awesome Fun!

Who wouldn't want to be a stunt driver for a day and possible win money? I know I would do it even if it meant not winning money. Every since I saw the first cars stunt on Fear Factor I thought "Wouldn't it be incredible to have a show all about car stunts?". Now that my dream has come through I am considering moving to Detroit and trying to become a regular on this show.

The good with the bad. I can't honestly say this show is perfect because it's not. The chemistry between Orlando and Dan isn't that great. Orlando is funny some of the time the other times it seems like he's trying too hard. And Dan, poor Dan. He's just not that funny or entertaining and his catch phrase "Two reds and a green" needs to go away. I think the show would benefit from a Wipeout type approach with having them do the commentary after the fact that way they can come up with the best jokes for the show.

At any rate I loved it and hope they work on revising it to keep it on the air.
