That's probably overstating it. More like a quarter! emoticon

Re: Wipeout Is Officially Over


I was rewatching season 2 today, and that's the best Wipeout. Everything from that season was so memorable...Yams Man, Gipe Sisters, Wipeout Bowl...I could go on. And all the obstacles were so plain and simple but they worked. I truly miss when the show was that good.

I can't say I ever had any pain or suffering. Frustration and slight annoyance at them ruining it, but certainly no pain or suffering. emoticon

Re: Wipeout Is Officially Over


Will definately get back to watching season 2 & 3 over the summer - undoubtedly the shows peak, but we all knew that. Watched the first 7 eps of season 2 over a weekend a couple of weeks ago and didn't get bored by it at all.

It's not just the obviously better obstacles but the whole look of the course in simple blues, reds and greys just really works far better than the overdressed garishly coloured obstacles of later series. Indeed the more they tried to disguise repeated obstacles as new obstacles the more annoying they became.

ABC have now closed the website. Seems nobody has told the shows tweeter it's over yet though.

I hope they get paid well for the way they're always trying to hype up a dead show.

Six years on and I still remember him, where as I'm struggling to remember anyone from anyone from beyond season 3. That's how good the episodes were back then, they stick in your mind. That was before the became practically the same episode every single week and just blurred into one.
