Any MXC fans here?
When I first saw this show, which is on SpikeTV, a channel I typically do not watch, I thought it was going to be totally immature and stupid.

And it sure as hell is. But, I tell ya, it's frickin' HILARIOUS. I HIGHLY recommend it if you want to see people doing funky acrobatics and hurting themselves with a background of witty bantar overdubs.

1. All I can say
is, any show where people get smacked with balls out of a cannon while balancing on a narrow bridge gets a hardy thumbs up. I won't even go into the high entertainment factor at seeing people run into walls.

2. I love the little stories they make up for each person
and the sound effects...the things they say as they're getting up after they crack their ribs LOL "Dammit, I told you not to..."

4. ROFL!
That's the one that prompted me to write this! They JUST showed that one...I saw a replay of it like 90 seconds ago...

I couldn't BELIEVE that guy! What the HELL was he thinking???

Yeah, and that shot of the announcers immediately afterward, I swear, I hurt myself laughing....

12. Yeah, I'm Central. The one that I got at 8AM,
which would be 9 Eastern (and would transfer to 9 Pacific, I guess) was the one with the backflip guy.

5. Marathon today
something like 10 hours straight, followed by a new episode featuring Tony Hawk.

I got the DVR warmed up and cleared out, making lots of space for it.

7. Really hate the Americanized dubbing
But the show can be freaking hilarious. I am trying to find originals at a local Japanese import store.

Funniest episode ever (so far) Movie Monsters vs Company Mascots. The olive falling into the drink nearly killed us. Jaws eating himself did kill us.

16. Az!
the dubbing is half the fun, you know.

Although sometimes I wonder what's really going on. Truly bizarre show, Lord Takeshi's Castle.

18. Man....just brutal...
Some guy just pushed his wife off of a platform but she missed the spinner, then flipped upside down and hit her head on the platform before going headfirst into the water...Then he almost jumped down on top of her LOL
