4. It's just fucking annoying.
And the family seems to think the volume has to be on high, even though they had Obama turned down (which I let happen)

6. I take it you've never seen the hugely popular Japanese version?
it's the exact same thing, including snarky american dubbing of the Japanese commentators

10. yeah, but you can at least respect that everyone knows its crap
The japanese take it a step further by having the contestants wear stupid costumes while making fun of them.

The Japanese do have a legitimate obstacle course show too. Athletes from around the world come to try and beat it and so far only one person EVER has beat all the courses.

15. That's the funniest shit I have seen in a long time!
Come on, why can't people time their jumps when the swings are coming towards them not going away from them.
