Cheat

Well, it's very easy. When you watch TV Game and u ask yourself for what kind of audience it was created...? It's already failure. I've watched first episode, it was so basic that I've gotten headache. The next day I've decided to watch another episode but I've managed to see only half of it. TV games are already outdated thing and no one watch it but when you create basic TV game it's even worse. Nothing is funny in this TV game show, nothing is interesting, participants are just terrible. God, help our society to go further and NETFLIX, please, stop creating and pushing this basic bs, I want my time back.

Four contestants take turns answering trivia questions and they have an option to cheat if they don't know the answer. Meaning, there is a hidden button they can press which will reveal the answer to them on their screen and the pot is communal. But if another player correctly accuses them of cheating, it gives them a better chance to advance to the next round and they can choose who gets eliminated. In the final round, giving a wrong answer means a sudden game over, so does incorrectly calling someone out on a cheat. I found the questions a bit too easy, but that was funny because they reveal to the viewers when people cheated and it was more frequent than I thought. People even made up lies to explain how they "knew" the answers to make themselves seem more believable when called out. It was a kind of frustrating to watch the smartest people lose to stupid people who could just hide their body language better, but that's part of the fun.

Well here is another flawed game show. It's not going to last as soon the more smart people will realise the statistical way to win the game and then what's the point. At the moment though it's nice and inclusive giving dumb people a chance to compete in a quiz show which traditionally had to have smart people competing. Now they can roll the dice and see if by luck they can win a competition.

It's marginally amusing until you spot the flaw. I doubt it will be back for a second season unless they deliberately pick dumb people to make sure that they work out how to win every time.

It's a 4/10 in the old school rating system.

I stumbled across this show on Netflix last week, and my first impression was "What in the hell is this?" but I stuck with it, and it started to grow on me. I think the two hosts are terrific and complement each other very well. Ellie is sharp, good looking, and has a great sense of humor too. And Danny, well Danny is a piece of work, and in a class by himself. I love his energy, his accent, his physical presence and gyrations, and his ability to keep the show moving along. The show is obviously skewed towards the younger viewer, and the contestants, and the non-brain straining questions are proof of that. I hope that the show gets renewed for a long run. Give it a shot. It's a LOT of fun.

Well, this starts off pretty well. Decent concept. First couple of episodes are interesting and engaing.

Unfortunately, that's about it for this show - it ends up being too draggy and monotonous very soon. Lots of repeated cliches and jokes, unnecessarily lengthy and pondering explanations - the questions (At least 70-80%) are pretty damn easy and don't offer much informative value either.

I watched the first few episodes but it got very boring, very soon. If you do decide to watch and stick with this until the end, I would suggest to watch the first couple of episodes normally, and just watch the rest of the episodes at 1.5X, if you must.
