[BrooklynKnight]

Exactly!

Did anyone else watch that show and realize these people learned nothing from comics. I mean anyone whose read 1 Spider-man comic should know to wear there costume under there street clothes. Alos nobody a psuedo-costume a la Superboy that could double as street clothes.

I also thought it was funny that they had to change into costume out of view - to prevent their "secret identities" from being compromised - when none of them even wear masks! (The gladiator guy at least wears a helmet.) Obviously they're running on the "Superman puts on glasses and looks completely different as Clark Kent" school of thought.

I must admit, I love major victory. He is hillarious. Nothing like good le campy comic book fun. But I got to imagine, if the guys put on superman costumes in the 30s it would be a lot like this, heck batman, xmen. I think once stan and a team gets a hold of the winner they can spice it up a bit.

I was surprised at the final three though, I think that wierd braidy chick should have been up there, not monkey girl (she changed her clothes in a tree how sweet is that). The other girl seems as if she needs a date 99% of hte time. Plus she actually slowed down, looked at the little girl, ran up and cracked her whip. She's so much into her character she neglects the little girl after looking her dead in the eye. Man she annoys me.

On to little nuances in the show. The first guy was voted off for trying to make a profit off his name, but doesnt Booster Gold do the same thing. I didnt think it was as haneious as ..well that braid girl.

Agreed on both counts. My wife was all for having Creature (braidy chick) get booted out at the first, in place of "I want to make millions selling action figures of myself" man, and was severely disappointed that she wasn't at least one of the three stepping up to explain themselves on the roof. Right now, she's betting that either Creature or Iron Enforcer will be the next to "get the boot."

My bet is that had to be a "producer choice" as what happens in most reality shows. Whenever common sense is thrown out the window I blame the producers. She has to be serving some demographic.

Major Victory or Feedback are my favorites to win.

 

[Tuzenbach]

I almost fell out of my chair when Major Victory was running towards the archway. Seriously, what were those moves? It's almost as if the guy thinks he's straight of the 60's Batman TV show, LoL!

But wait, there's more:

"WHO IS THE MOTHER OF THIS CHILD?!"

LOL!

He actually BELIEVES he's already a Superhero. If that guy doesn't win it, I'm gunna be upset.

But hey, as long as they keep Monkey Woman & Cellphone Girl until the final episode, I think I'll keep watching.....

Best. Show. Evar!!!!

Sig worthy:

"Jump into my arms!" - Major Victory.


He seems to be the one who has put the most thought into his "shtick". He alone is worth the price of admission.

It is like watching a car crash...I can't help but tune in for another painfully hilarious episode.

That's because any well-grounded, self-respecting comic-book fans wouldn't be caught dead participating in this "reality" game show.

Oh, Stan! Could you have stooped any lower than Stripperella?
