John Henson used to joke about the mammoth stack of waivers contestants on "Wipeout" had to sign.

Both this and Wipeout are filmed in the exact same location not far from here. I got to peek at the Holey Moley set and it sure is more impressive during the night time

Enjoyed it last night!

You never know, Social Distancing Bowling could be making a comeback.

This is so much better. Holes are way better. Some of the stuff Rob says

Rob bases his whole schtick on Fred Willard's judge from Best in Show.

I didn't watch the first season, but I recorded last night's episode and watched it today while I rode the exercise bike. It's a perfect show to watch while I work out. I couldn't believe that they set contestants on fire while they try to putt. I set up a season pass on my DVR for it.

I am so hooked on that now ...

I'm finding that I tend to be more of an O-Ranger guy just because I can pick their racer out quicker in the pack.

I'm contemplating a new hobby when I am away from my family the next year or two ...

I prefer even bigger balls! - I miss "Wipeout". (The local ABC station for a couple of years used to air repeats early Sat and Sun mornings - they stopped last fall. Now I have watch them on PlutoTv app which theres a whole channel devoted to Wipeout. They even show the ones from Australia - Europe and Canada.)
Update - re-read some of the earlier posts - glad to see it coming back later this summer.

I also like the dude last week who tried to push back some of the people in the outhouses so he could avoid ending up in the drink but ultimately failed.

So, this is me being shallow but the golf instagram influencer from Salt Lake who won the episode was really cute, I totally get why she has a fair amount of followers on insta and I say this as someone who has no presence on instagram. Also, the woman from Florida who wore the short skirt was hella cute and wow...she must get hit on all day to the point where it exhausts her. Again, me being shallow but I admit if I was on a course with her I might be driven to distraction looking at her.

Finally, a really cool behind the scenes article/interview on Holey Moley II on the reality blurred site from May 28th. It is a great peek behind the curtain and explains why Steph is animated, and some of the banter you hear on the air between Joe and Rob is not 100% scripted.

Worth a read.

ETA: Spoilerized a good chunk of my comments in case folks have not watched the latest ep. I mention who won but that is vague enough and how she won is now in spoiler tags.

So Holey Moley continues to bring it...enjoyable episode last night. Some impressive putts and even more impressive is that both players made it past the porta potty gauntlet without ending up in the drink. In fact, I almost told myself they increased the time that contestants can run across but the reality is that both players were smart and immediately sprinted across which is just as great to watch as seeing folks fall into the water. So many players over think and end up with a delayed start running at the beginning and it is usually that wasted second that gets them hurled into the water.

My family loves this show... we've been catching up on Hulu and love Riggle.

Riggle is an American treasure.

I'm loving it more because the holes are better, but Riggle seems to be in the IDGAF, I'm gonna say the craziest shit camp. He's said some stuff this year that I'm like how are they able to get away with this.

If you like him here check out Rob Riggle: Global Investigator on Discovery, it’s a hoot (and he actually makes some legitimate discoveries).

This show is so much more off the rails than it was last season.

Agree. Riggle and Joe could commentate paint drying and it would be entertaining. Letting them ad-lib and play off each other makes the show.

Yeah, this season has been pretty great. Riggle getting cold in the middle of the night shoot and needing to bundle up was great. I do wish they were a bit more consistent with airing the episodes, I think they only aired 2 in July.

Joe was straight up cracking up at times when Rob was doing his shtick during last weeks episode...I do love that the show runner(s) decided to leave those moments in. I also love how excited they get when they see a genuinely cool putt take place on the course. The show continues to deliver but my least favorite ep of the season was the The Bachelor/Bachelorette cross-promo episode. Even a weak episode of Holey Moley is still entertaining.

I'm still loving this. Rob Riggle is an American treasure. I didn't watch season one and I can't find it anywhere. It's not even on available to buy on Vudu or iTunes.

According to JustWatch DirecTV has both seasons- don't know how accurate that is.

I was watching a "danger Act" on this week's "America's Got Talent" which involved the performer having to free himself while the stand he was handcuffed to was ablaze. He was slathered in protective goo and a couple of the judges were freaking out and I thought "They actually set contestants on fire on 'Holey Moley'"!

Season 3 starts with a two hour season premiere on June 17th.

Nice thread bump, and you will now get to see more posts where I ogle the women contestants, lol! Half-kidding, I am usually not that guy but hey, sometimes eye-candy ends up on this show. Wonder if they just stick with the formula that to this point still works (having Rob and Joe in the announcers box and Jeannie Mai on the course to interview the contestants), or make some tweaks. Anyway, can't wait!

I just started watching old episodes of this on Hulu. Probably the best host line-up of any of these shows, just a thoroughly entertaining combo.
