ok, he did hit at least a couple of more branches on the way down in the ugly tree, but the resemblance is still very striking, hehe. Oh and Jacques, I still love you, hehe…. and I probably was as drunk as I am now.

Ah, cheers Jacques! I found some torrents for the American version of the show! I’m not too keen on the US commentary though… in the English version it’s every competitor for him/herself, whereas MXC touts it as a team vs other team thing. Also, I don’t know if perhaps it was just the episode I saw, but in the English version if a competitor makes it to the final round (the storming of the castle) they have a bit where they have to drive around in those bumpercar spaceship things and squirt waterpistols at the Rainbow Guards (who also have their own high-powered waterpistols on their own cars), trying to burst a circle of tissue that’s on the front of each car… I have yet to see anyone win and actually storm the castle though. Anyway, regardless of the format, the painful humiliation of everyone involved in the show is always great.

According to this quiz, i’m General Lee!

Ferdinand, are you drunk? I resent all of this nonsense. He looks nothing like me; he should be so lucky.

Oh wow. I don’t think we can be freinds anymore. What is that filthy thing on his upper lip? Plus, I’d sooner die than be caught wearing a Southampton jumper.

Maybe we can be friends again, because I also love Takeshi’s Castle. In the US, they dub the guy in the safari hat with a French accent and his name is Guy LaDouche. Here, however, the show is called MXC (Most eXtreme Challenge). I am a big fan of “Floaters and Sinkers”, the mud football ctaching game, and the ones where you run across rolling pins. The episode where eveyeone is dressed in halloween costumes (costumes to look for: statue of liberty, totem pole, pea) is also priceless.
