Anyone else watch Total Black Out on Syfy channel?

It's a hilarious game show. Players have to go into a dark room (they're filmed with night vision cameras) and try to identify objects and there's lots of freaking out. One of the tests has been for the players to touch and guess the weight of objects and an actual clown was among the objects and he scares the dayllights out of any player who comes next him by honking a horn at the person. So fun! A new episode is on every Tuesday at 10PM EST.

I saw that episode, too!  It was *hilarious*  Especially the part where the one guy was spazzing because he was in a bath with artichokes!  I was trying so hard  not to laught out loud (the rest of the family was asleep) and thought I was going to burst something. I snorked, too, when the one guy had to 'guess what this is' and it was a woman in a body suit. The look on his face when he groped her a good one and said 'these are boobies'. And the announcer said 'yes, they are... and what are they usually attached to?'  He looked so embarrassed.

Sounds interesting. I've never seen it before.

Never heard of it before.  It sounds amusing

The donut tasting test is pretty cool but better them than me eating the donuts filled with grass or paper tissues or hair. I'll take the safe donuts from the test (vanilla filled, cherry jam filled, chocolate filled)

The mouse trap maze is kind of cruel. For that test, the players walk barefoot, except their toes are wrapped in a layer of gauze for a bit of protection, along a twisting trail through a field of mouse traps.

I may watch this but the channel is certainly not what it used to be.

I've never watched it, but I see the ads for it when I watch wrestling. Why do they use live animals? Isn't that abuse..?

There was a commercial of a woman who had to touch a guinea pig and she started screaming. All I could think about was how awful it must've been for the piggy I had the same problem with Fear Factor. I just don't understand why they always use live animals.

Wholeheartedly agreed.  I've never been able to reconcile or tolerate this.  It's torturous.
