The episode just ended where I am. I understand that it was just the first of 10 (how the hell did it get that much money?), but I sincerely doubt it's gonna get many more views from me.
I have fond memories of watching Wipeout when that was still a thing. They murdered that show and then advertised this monstrosity as a "replacement", or as a "love letter to fans". I'm gonna put it nicely. I would rather watch the most boring, bland, unfunny, obviously rigged episode of that show 100 times more than this boring, bland, unfunny, obviously rigged show.
I know this is way shorter than my normal reviews but honestly there's nothing to say about this show. It was just a boring waste of my time and life with nothing redeeming about it. Just rewatch Wipeout. Hopefully they cancel this garbage and bring that show back.

- It was so unfunny. The casters have absolutely no charisma, no gusto, just lame golf jokes.
- I want to see people play mini golf. Instead I saw a 5 second montage. In fact I saw not one, not two, not even three! I counted four 5 second montages. You had plenty of time to actually show the golfing. You instead sold the time to advertisers. I counted at least 10 (10!!!!!) commercial breaks.
- They hired these people off the streets and put them in costumes. Those definitely aren't their real names. Those definitely aren't their real personalities. It was so rigged I guessed who one solely off the fact that her "backstory" was the most realistic out of all these buffoons.
- Rigged! I call rigged so hard! There is no way these talented mini golfers missed a nearly point blank shot, not once, not even twice, but THREE TIMES in the final round to give grandpa girl the tie! AND THEN PROCEED TO MISS AGAIN! It was so obvious and unbelievable and it sucked!
