Most Extreme Elimination Challenge Returns!

The new season of MXC (which is somehow an abbreviation of Most Extreme Elimination Challenge) begins tonight at 10pm on SpikeTV.

Most Extreme Elimination Challenge is a very difficult show to describe but is guaranteed to have you laughing harder than you've laughed all week. The video is of ridiculous events from a Japanese competition show and all the audio is dubbed by a couple of comedians. It's not a show for kids as the humor is sometimes low-brow, but it's one of the strangest shows on TV.

In some events you'll see Japanese men and women run down a mountain trying to escape a "boulder" or swinging on a rope over a pit of mud while wearing a velcro suit and trying to stick themselves to a target. Or maybe you'll see then one where they walk across a tightrope while someone shoots balls at them. It's absurd.

Update: Actually, I just found out that tonight's episode will not use the original Japanese footage. Instead it will be US college students trying to complete the same events. I suppose next week they'll be back to Japanese competition. Posted by Chris on 4/22/2004 11:41:00 AM :: Permalink
