Why don't you use -q?

From man wget:

-q --quiet Turn off Wget's output.

$ wget --2015-05-08 14:07:42-- Resolving ()... (...) HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK Length: unspecified [text/html] Saving to: ‘index.html’ [ <=> ] 17,913 --.-K/s in 0.01s 2015-05-08 14:07:42 (1.37 MB/s) - ‘index.html’ saved [17913] 

And:

$ wget -q $
