My 7 yr old son LOVES Wipeout!!!! Please bring it back!!!!! “Its my most favorite show ever, mommy, why did they take it away??? “
Please keep this show going. I look forward to watching. I also like
Jill. One suggestion. Please change the Wipeout final contest back to its original format. Season seven’s format wasn’t as exciting. Thanks.
I absolutely loved Wipeout! I would laugh so frickin hard at the people getting whacked by the sucker punch or falling off the big balls. I like Jim Henson and Jim anderson and Jill Wagner was my TV girlfriend. But like everything else that’s good, ABC takes it off and puts crap on in its place. Anything that’s family oriented has got to go. But if it’s according to the gay agenda or some sexually explicit program, they’re all about that.
Please keep Wipeout on the air. It is one of the most entertaining shows on TV. We’ve looked forward to watching every episode since it first aired. Please renew this great show!
Wipeout is one of the funniest and entertaining shows on TV. We’ve looked forward to each season since the first episode. Please renew this show.
You have got to bring back Wipe out, this is one of the only shows on TV that I can sit and watch with my entire family old and young. Please, Please, don’t cancel this show. We always look forward to watching it on Sundays. Thanks for hearing me out.
Wipe out our favorite TV program.
Milly Reynolds and family
You’ve gotta put it back on for an 8th season. Going on the show is one of my biggest dreams right now. People have gotta see a dancing video gamer (me) conquer through the qualifier and Tango with the big balls.
