First, a New York Post article:
Copycat Wipeout[/quote]
When I saw your header, my first reaction was "Well, of COURSE it is, but that's really not news, is it?" To me, what moves this story from "shockingly predictable" to "OK, a little tacky" is the Wipeout producer's claim that they never-ever-ever considered Japanese game shows of any sort when developing their show.
And "Fear Factor with comedy"? Please.
