Fear Factor Malaysia
Just like always, I’m very interested when it comes to reality tv. But after watching Fear Factor Malaysia last Friday, I’m not sure when is my 2nd time to see another episode…
Ada banyak sebab kenapa aku x brapa suka FFM. Aku senaraikan sebab2 tersebut
1) Shamsir Sidhu
Ntah knapa aku x nampak dia ada style tersendiri. Maybe he’s good in modelling and in commercial but he doesn’t have appeal in hosting. Disebabkan Fear Factor ni francais, so FFM supposely setaraf atau lebih baik termasuk dari segi pengacaraannya. Memanglah kalo rujuk Malaysian Idol dengan Pop Idol, kita dapati kes yang sama (Malaysian Idol is worse), tetapi sepatutnya FFM try to beat that kind of record.
As time goes by, mungkin FFM host akan menjadi lebih baik. Tapi, like 1 mentioned, doesn’t have much appeal as a host. Skejap dia menyokong peserta, skejap dia menakut-nakutkan.
2) Language
Apsal guna fully English? Kalo dah BI jugak, baiklah import terus je dari US. Dah sure lagi best. Stakat rupa je Malaysia, tapi cakap bahasa Inggeris, apa yang specialnya dengan Fear Factor MALAYSIA??
Sepatutnya buat dwi-bahasa cam Malaysian Idol. Host bercakap Bahasa Inggeris dan Bahasa Malaysia, macam Sheryll Samad slalu buat. Ataupun, kalo nak jugak cakap BI, jgn la force contestants untuk cakap fully English. Bagi diorang kebebasan untuk cakap BM. Barulah kita boleh dengar diorang jerit ‘Gelinya’ instead of ‘Eu’
Namun masih diharap penggunaan Bahasa Rojak tidak digunakan (sepertimana blog ini ditulis) untuk memelihara martabat Bahasa Malaysia.
3) The Game
Aku tgh duk figure out waktu Game 1, kat mananya yang fear? kalo memang dah tahu nak jatuh? Bagi yang x tengok. 1st game, diorang kena gayut pegang satu tempat pemegang dan bertahan paling lama. Dan bila dah terlepas, akan jatuh.
Lagi satu, aku x baper suka la part makan2 benda2 tu. Watching the original Fear Factor and watch that scene showed how much idiot the contestants are and how everything for them revolve in money. And still people keep asking, is it fear of eating those gross things? Jijik x semestinya takut kan?

It’s easy to say that when I watched FFM, I couldn’t see Malaysian culture there. With the clothes and all. Maybe yes, that Malaysian is getting to that level. But come on, when you see FFM and it’s just duplicating all the things, I wonder why I should watch FFM, instead of much better version of the original FF?
Take this as analogy. If someone write another version of Harry Porter, the same story but just altering the words, r u gonna read it?
diorang ni kata nak buat versi mesia tp yg aku tengok tak jauh beza mana pun dgn yg sana…ntah,lps tgk last week punye episode…rasanya takyah follow la..ntahape2 jer….
