ok,I managed to see the trailer for the upcoming series of Total Washout,and here is what we'll be expecting: we now have the Dreadmill...hoorah,and not only that but there were two dreadmills,from what I saw from it,it looks like 2 players will be racing each other. we finally have some variations of the Sweeper,the ball crusher...hopefully they will use others too. the Ball Swing in the Qualifier that's all the best bits really.Richard Hammond really looked and sounded more bored than usaul Let's hope Total Wipeout Series 2 is the UK's USA Series 1,which is what UK Series 1 should of been

it seems like we have a new obstacle at the beginning of the Qualifier: a stack of blocks,a beam and people throwing red balls(yawn).Richard Hammond still sounds bored,unfunny and still doing pathetic fake laughter And if you didn't catch Hammond on GMTV this morning: oh and Rich,it's not the Spinner...it's the Sweeper!!!

I wouldn't have been surprised if the show didn't return for a second series, there wasn't much talk about the first series, this usually means that it wasn't very popular, Hole in the Wall was mentioned all over the place (e.g. Harry Hill), but this wasn't. You're right, The Hamster does sound bored, it's like he doesn't want to do it. Even I know that it's The Sweeper not The Spinner and I've only seen one show.

Yes,I agree with you about Hole In The Wall(which is now being shown on Watch by the way ) In a way I don't blame you for watching just one show...they're nearly all the same each week apart from some small changes to the Qualifier and Dizzy Dummy I'll be watching tonight anyway,as I have nothing better to do If it was me,I'd give Hammond's job to Craig Charles(obviousley ;D)and the person that does Come Dine With Me

I know it's still on but can't be bothered to watch anymore :-/Here are the good points and bad points of tonight's show: Good Points: The Saloon doors and Crazy Cut Outs were a nice edition to the Dizzy Dummy The Sweeper finally has a variation...The Crusher Bad Points: Hammond needs a haircut Dodgeball in the Qualifier was basically the blocks and a slippery log from the Dizzy Dummy and the dodgeballs from Dodgeball Sweeper [you]all thrown[/you](see what I did there ;D)together into a cheap and naff obstacle More stupid nicknames for the contestants Hammond's Do's and Dont's on the Big Balls were a waste of time...he flew all the way to Argentina just for that?!(well,I know we have more to come in the series) Far too many recaps on the scoreboard during the Qualifier...save all that stuff untill the end Too many replays in the Sweeper,with stupid contestant interviews during that Too many recaps on who got to the Dizzy Dummy...after the Sweeper and actually at the start of Dizzy Dummy The pathetic "I really want to win this...this will be a dream come true" bit before the Wipeout Zone Two "new" obstacles in the Wipeout Zone...that's good you say?,no,it's basically the Water Wall with a ladder stuck on it and renamed into "Monkey Bars" and the Rolling Log(which is actually rolling this time )with giant sticks stuck to it and renamed into...well,I actually forgot now...but I'll just name it Rolling Log when I put this in the Wipeout episode guide.

I was on holiday last week and since there was nothing on andf I was bored, I decided to watch the first episode, it was ok, I prefered it to the first episode of the first series, but I won't watch it again, Hammond's attempt at being funny with the nicknames was annoying, the dodgeball bit seemed pointless. I wasn't disappointed, because I never expected to like it in the first place.

I mainly watch it now just to update my Wipeout episode guide in last night's episode...I really cringed at the bit before the Wipeout Zone more than before..."I really want to take my kids on holiday"..."it would mean so much to be the first female winner,it would change my life"...urgh!!! ah well,the Hurtles are returning to Wipeout USA next week so that will cheer me up ;D
