As you all know, from the boring way the new "Hole in the Wall" game has been done in the UK and USA (i.e. uninteresting costumes that avoid showing wetlook, whereas the chinese version did the same gameshow wearing nice clothings)....we have the same thing going on with the U.S. show "Wipeout"...

...i.e. Wipeout is based on the Japanese gameshow "Ninja Warrior" (which itself is a newer version of the old Takeshi's Castle gameshow).

The U.S. version of the show is totally devoid of any decent wetlook (it is all kneepads, helmets, t shirts and shorts in the water games)....whereas the chinese version is so much better. The chinese version has numerous girls in jeans and dresses in the water obstacle course. I have taped about 50 wet jeans and dresses scenes from this new version on the Fujian China satellite network in the last 2 months. I have uploaded a couple of sample clips to Youtube...to show you what I mean...i.e. that shows done in Asia are more interesting....whereas the same shows done in the USA or Europe are so politically correct (i.e. gender-neutral) they seem to go out of their way to make sure there are no wetlook scenes worth seeing....anyway...hope you like these 2 sample clips I made from the chinese version...
