what tv would you like to be in?

Post by luke »

i was watching takeshi's castle ( one of the greatest shows ever made! ) the other night and was thinking i'd love to have a go at that! i used to love the assault course on krypton factor when i was a kid, but takeshi's castle is a whole different level of madness! i can't thinking of anything else on tv that gets me laughing like that show :lol:

apart from takeshi's castle, there used to be a show, i can't remember the name, but it was two teams of two and they got dropped of in random places around the world - all over the place, they weren't told where they were or even the local language - nothing, and had to make it back to trafalgar square in london before the other team by blagging it back by any means necessary - it was quite surprising the blags they managed to pull off, free flights, hotels etc

so, what tv shows would you like to be part of?

ps - i would beat all of you on both shows! :nyer: :lol:

Takeshi's Castle is brilliant - it's always guaranteed to get me laughing too. Just watching how determined the players are to do some of the stunts, while risking a broken neck or worse is top-class tv! Have you checked out the american version? The voiceover is done by two comedians and they're a good bit funnier than Craig Charles on the UK version.

I reckon I'd have taken part in that when I was younger/stupider but I can't think of anything I'd like to be in just now though, I'll think about it a bit.

I loved Takeshi's Castle as well. Very entertaining. Sort of like the Ninja Warrior that is currently running in the US, except Takeshi was hilarious...good comedy. I don't think I'm fit to do any physical type shows, but would have loved to when I was in better shape and stronger. I wouldn't mind doing some sort of game show like Wheel of Fortune or Price is Right. As long as I don't have to jump up and down like a kid high on sugar and kiss the Price is Right host Bob Barker. I'd have to refuse profusely..LOL!

I can't really say that there is any show I would want to be on. I don't want to find aout that I am not smarter than a 5th grader, I don't want cameras in my bathroom, I don't dance or sing and the only way I want to travel the world is with plane tickets and money. The only one I can think of is getting a tattoo from Ami James on Miami Ink....that might work!
