Lego Masters

I like Will Arnett and the basis for the show. Problem is it follows the same script too many shows like it do (Hell's Kitchen is a perfect example). Gimmicky over the top contestants, sitting around talking throughout the show. Too much flash and flair instead of just getting down to the competition. It just starts to feel scripted. Hope it improves.

The show is way over produced with loud dramatic music, animation, perfectly manicured and coached contestants playing characters, the newlyweds, the underprivileged, the grannies, the nerds, and so on; every one with a story. The focus is on Will Arnett and guest judge. Between Arnett doing uncle jokes there are brief flashes of Lego construction with lots of concern and hand wringing over whether the contestants will finish, which they always do somehow, and friendly jibes between contestants. The Lego constructions are sometimes shown in animation that looks almost real which makes one wonder how much is real. In episode 2, Arnett smashes Lego constructions, maybe, something looks off, the unsmashed remainder doesn't match between shots vs the "slow motion replay" which is certainly animation. The end product is a show that looks fake top to bottom, I definitely don't buy it and so feel no investment.

I do not understand why Americans insist on tleeling the entire plot in the trailer. Envry single episodes. And what's up with the extreme facial expressions? It's ridiculous!

The first episode was very promising but the second episode is mainly drama with a sprinkling of LEGO. How about a LEGO competition show where we get to see all the models in detail.

Please less reality show drama and more killer builds. I don't care how long it takes them. I would much prefer see experts make insane 3 day builds that are worthy of legoland than see a rushed attempt at something. At the very least give them more time than you did. No one wants to see half assed builds because of some arbitrary time crunch.
