Any "Most Extreme Elimination Challenge" (MXC) fans here?
Edited on Sat Mar-13-04 01:40 AM by neverforget
I love this show! I've only been watching it for about 3 weeks but I find I can't get enough of it.

For those of you who haven't seen it, it's a Japanese reality sports gameshow with english overdubs. It's like a MST3K/reality gameshow combination with commentary that is absolutely hilarious along with some of the wipeouts by the contestants. Whoever thought of this show idea is brilliant. "Right you are Ken" "Indeed!"

Thursday nights 9pm Spike TV

2. ME!!!! ME!!!!!
My wife and I both love it. It's the kind of show that you really have to pay attenytion to, because the jokes come one right after the other.

My favorite was the female contestant who said that she had seven brothers - "And they're all lousy kissers."

:-)

7.  You definitely have to pay attention to the commentary. The jokes
are flying at you faster than "brass balls" from the "assasins".

A cross between "Jackass" and "Iron Chef."

8. I was having a REALLY bad day when I first saw that.
I was quite depressed. In a real black hole of sadness.

I was flipping through the channels when I came across Top Ten Eliminations of the Day. I couldn't stop laughing for five minutes, I could hardly breath. Luckily it was the first of three back to back episodes.

God bless the Japanese.

14. "Oh, Ken, if you though that one was sour, try this..."
Edited on Sat Mar-13-04 10:51 PM by BiggJawn
"BRAAAAP!"
"Yes, Guy, I would have to agree that your farts have the most power...'

I actually catch myself cheering anyone who clears that surfboard-go-round thing...

"I am suprised. my boyfriend has trouble stay in bed most times!"

15. On the west coast, it runs opposite Saturday night live
THANK GOD. I used to tune in to SNL and then flip it when it went bad, but these days, it's all bad. MXC is where it's at.

That and http://www.peopleforchange.net.

18. And in every episode.....
there's someone named Babaganoosh with some wierd occupation like 'plasma donor for flat-screen TVs'. These shows are even funny after 2 or 3 viewings.

20. Indeed! Best..Dubbed...Realty...Show...Ever!
Screw Fear Factor! MXC is a laugh a minute fun fest. For some reason watching people get fu**ked up is funny when it happens to other people in another country...There is NO WAY this could be filmed in the U.S. without every ambulance chaser getting rich..
But I love Kenny and Guy LaDuche
