Re: Wipeout Australia

And I doubt they'll have updated the international courses until that decision is made anyway.

It's still not confirmed officially it's been axed, just looks highly unlikely. I think the biggest problem with the first one was they'd shown the US version first, which did relatively well, so if they did a second, but showed it before they showed the second US series, I think it would do better.

Re: Wipeout Australia

The Australian comments i've seen haven't even mentioned the fact that the obstacles have been repeated. They all say how bad some of the jokes are, and the overall presentation is pretty bad compared to the US version.

Hole in the Wall doesn't help, as they hated that too. (So did I)

Re: Wipeout Australia

But remember these are just a handful of people on the internet saying how bad the jokes/presentation are. Remind you of somewhere similar saying the same stuff about their own country's version?

Except we have a point emoticon

Anyway, still hopefully there will be a second series - to fill the time when the American series isn't on.

Re: Wipeout Australia

There was also a review saying that the jokes/presentation was bad. emoticon

Why else would they hate it?

Re: Wipeout Australia

The jokes/presentation weren't that bad at all (seriously, have you seen some of the so called "comedy" Australia produces).

And even if they were, isn't that the point. Henson may be genius, but really without bad jokes he'd have nothing to work with.

Good emoticon

Two weeks on Sunday is the launch of the channel then. I suspect they'll start form the beginning of the series though emoticon

Re: Wipeout Australia

It does make sense to start from the begining. Unless they mess up again and show it from the middle.

What's so bad about the start? emoticon

Re: Wipeout Australia

You have to wait until the end for the new episode.

With Nine's history regarding this show though, I won't believe they're actually showing it until after it's broadcast.

Re: Wipeout Australia

Looks like I spoke too soon - it's been pulled. They're going to show the new US series instead.
