Checkpoint (Dutch TV Show)
''Checkpoint'' is a Dutch children's TV show broadcast by the Evangelische Omroep on Zapp. It can be described as a jumble between ''Brainiac'', ''Jackass'' and ''Fear Factor'' for youth. The show is presented by Klaas van Kruistum. In this show tests are carried out which can be sent in by the viewers. However, most tests are not based upon scientific methods. It is rather a show in which stunts are performed. The ninth season of ''Checkpoint'' aired in September 2014. Structure and development Since 2009, when the show aired for the first time, its structure has chanced a couple of times. During the first two seasons of ''Checkpoint'', every episode consisted of three tests. The second one always was ''Boys vs Girls''. In these tests the differences between boys and girls are scrutinized and it focussed on whether men or women are better in performing a certain task or function. The other two tests changed every episode and these focused on products being pinpointed. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
