Spider-Man is a spider. BatMan is a bat. FunkMan has disco balls and strobe attacks. ect. Solid Snake can hide like a Snake, and wait for it's prey... Im not obsessed with Metal Gear Solid... Yeah... wait batman isn't a superhero... he's a hero. He has no super powers... he's real-er-er. |

Cell Phone Girl is stoo-pid. I don't even know how she got on the show in the first place. Go Feedback! This is a nerdy show, so only a true nerd deserves to win. I mean, come on, he has video game powers! Though, it's rather obvious that Major Victory is going to win. I'll be seriously bummed if he does. F'real. |

Major victory is one of the best though. He saw the girl, he walked the plank, hes really good, but I also like Feedback, because of how he did with the dogs. |

That's because she's a superhero. Normal bats don't have batarangs. |

And, er, normal spiders don't actually have a spider sense that tingles. |

What I mean is, all good superheros have powers directly related to their symbol/character. Banana gadgets would be more for BananaMan. Powers directly related to monkey would be stupidity and climbing. |

But monkeys eat bananas. I think Major Victory IS going to win. The Dark Horse banner on the website features him and I doubt they would make a banner for a guy that won't win. |

My picks for elimination next episode: Quote: Fat Momma and Creature.
They seem like the most likely candidates to me... Only two more episodes, if they keep eliminating two per episode. I hope they make a bunch more seasons of this. It's the only reality TV show I like. |

If they do make a second season, they should spend an entire episode on the recruiting process. Some of those superhero concepts were hilarious. And maybe they should try a team vs. team for the first few shows, a la "Survivor," or more appropriately Avengers vs. X-Men. |

I am in the middle of watching this show, and I've got to say: Stan has a weird sense of humor. I read the interview with Monkey Woman on IGN where she says at the point she was eliminated, everyone on the show started to figure that the eliminations were getting completely arbitary (which explains why she behaved the way she did in the cafe). After the "dark secret" segment, I totally agree. This inmate challenge is hilarious, by the way. The secret task is to brush the inmate's hair out of her face? BWA HA HA HA!! |

Final episode aired tonight, and congrats to the winner! (I won't say who just yet so as not to ruin it...) It was down to Fat Momma and Feedback (who looks a LOT like Jim Carrey, IMO). My rooting was going more towards Fat Momma out of the two. |

That was a pretty fun final episode. My suggestion, though: they should have moved the stunt challenge earlier, like when they had five contestants. I think it would have been fun seeing Major Victory, Lemuria, and Creature try out some of the special effects to make their own mini-movies with their super powers. OK, sure the movies were cheesy as heck and could probably be done at one of the Universal Studios family-fun green screen rooms, but, really, nothing would have brightened my day more than seeing Creature locked in a mortal battle against the evil Dark Enforcer. And they could've done a special team shot! (Hey, that spot that had both Feedback and Fat Momma flying in space was silly yet fun.) The end where Stan comes out to meet the contestants was kinda nice too. By the way, was it just me, or were Nitro G and Levity not invited to the party? I didn't see them on the balcony, methinks. |
