- That's the premise, but the fun for me is the wit of the commentary. -- nm - Qale Jan 6, 18:57 7
  - Having watched both the US and Australian versions, I confirm that the commentary adds a *lot*. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 6, 19:00 6
    - I tend to get bored by the third round. -- nm - Reagen Jan 6, 19:05 1

  - yeah, that's the wierd part about wipeout - y kant pixie read Jan 6, 18:58 1
    - oh, you're watching too,. -- nm - loosilu Jan 6, 19:02

Someone was talking about this here recently - One of myfriends was talking about how she was losing her hair because of her medication - Simavistatin - the liioulu with spiciness Jan 6, 18:20 10

    - Found this link...notes that cholesterol is one of the building blocks of hair growth... -- (link) - MojaveMeg Jan 6, 18:47
