Reality tv = entertainment???

I hate to admit this, but I am completely hooked on the TV show "Wipeout". Talk about coming up with the most amazing and humiliating ways to HURT yourself!!! Plus throw in the two "hosts", who go out of their way to ensure you feel (by comparison) like the most intelligent and quick witted gun on earth, this show has everything to make you feel good after a crappy day.

Tonight's episode was awesome - one guy went on the wall that has punching gloves (otherwise known as thunderpunch) on it and copped 4 shots in a row right in the man vegetables. Then we got to watch in super slow mo (after all, the olympics are still fresh in everyone's mind) over and over again. Who would have thought goolie pulverising TV could be so entertaining??? And at the end, there is the most amazing obstacle course. Personally I think this would be an awesome thing to do if you had a few glasses of wine on board and good health insurance.
