'Wii Fit'? No. You fat!

It’s a gorgeous, sunny day, so why wouldn’t you spend it indoors, letting a machine tell you exactly how disgustingly out of shape you are? Earlier this week, in an Idol/DWTS-induced stupor, Michael Slezak and I field-tested the Wii Fit’s ski jump, hula hooping, soccer field bully avoidance, and jogging (?!) events. Wolf and Crush, who kicked our fat asses in January’s esteemed Office Gladiators series, would be horrified.

Question of the day: Would you rather
a) Be great at Wii Fit, or
b) Have access to Girl Scout Cookies?

My answer, at least, is c) ‘Duh.’

    OMG…LOVE you guys! A friend just brought over the Wii to our house, and we’ve become addicted.

  • Heather

    I want a Wii so bad (granted, I got addicted to the bowling). And it scares me that the Wii Fit looks fun. Exercise is bad! Just look at the evidence that is my rusted back and coat hanger of a treadmill!

  • Patty

    You need to do it barefoot – esp for the balance games. Very fun! Love it.

  • Laura R.

    1) Best Threadless shirt ever.
    2) Were those Thin Mints?
    3) While watching this, I LOL-ed far too much for my own good.

  • EP Sato

    Woo Hoo! The return of the Pdub Dynamic Duo Annie B and Mike Sle!
    Great video, and I’m totally fiending some girlscout cookies right now.
    My neighbor’s got a wii. Time to convince him to get a new game…

  • paige

    played wii fit for the first time yesterday and its as much fun as they make it seem even though you cant play when you’re extremely tired. i was confused why you guys had your sneakers on- and do know that you are not supposed to run or bounce on the balance board. damn, i wanna work for nintendo lol

  • Lyn

    Another hilarious production from Annie B and Micheal S!

  • Raven_Moon

    That was great! Maybe I should get a Wii…On second thought I’m going to go get my Thin Mints I’ve been saving.

  • Chris G

    ok now you guys have to play DDR, i’d pay to see that!

  • t3hdow

    LMAO:
    “He just threw a shoe at me!”
    *Slezak’s Mii get bonked in the head with a sneaker.
    *Later watch Annie’s Mii get stiff armed by the androgynous computer player.
    *Waching both Slezak and Annie enthusiastically scarfing down girl scout cookies in between bouts of ‘Wii Fit’
    Priceless. It must be fun to work at EW’s office.

  • Carli

    The Wii is doing a good job at keeping me indoors!

  • oscar

    Michael Sleazak, i love you. With this and everything Idol this year, coming to EW.com has been a joy.

  • spectator

    cookie loves milk!

  • ben

    Omigosh Slezak!!! I have the same shirt! I gasped so loud here in the office when I saw you wearing that. You are definitely my favorite writer in EW!

  • Cristina

    I love you guys. The best wii fit review I’ve seen. As usual you crack me up. Love the cookies between games. And thanks for your ever truthful, straight forward, and witty Idol commentaries. I’m glad I found you guys. You made my Idol season much more fun!

  • always excuses

    Heather, I have one of those coat-hanger treadmills, too. And I might add that my stationary bike is also a quite effective hanger-holder.

  • emily

    you’re supposed to use it in socks or bare feet.

  • Tim Lade

    Slezak you and I have the same shirt and is Annie really tall?

  • Lauren

    Hilarious. Nothing is more fun than watching other people’s Miis get hit in the face by soccer balls. No. Really. Cause I get slammed.
