House of Villains

The show keeps getting funnier and funnier. I first started watching because I am a Challenge fan, and I wanted to see how Johnny Bananas would be portrayed. I usually hate him on The Challenge, but I find myself rooting for him on this show.

I'm also familiar with the other characters and their respective shows. I hated Shake on his show, Omarosa, on her show, and Johnny Fairplay on his shows. On this show however, they're all super funny and play right into the villain characters. Bobby and all the other characters are hilarious also.

Joel McHale and the production crew really know how to work the show and make it entertaining.

I almost quit watching after the first episode because it seems so boring and contrived. But I gave it a couple more episodes and by the third episodes I was hooked. I only gave it nine stars because I don't think there should be a second season. I just don't think it would be as good as the first.

Usually I avoid reality shows as I find them fake, over edited and predictable. I'm so happy I gave this a chance. It felt like a refreshing take on the genre. The concept is to put "villains" from different reality shows into the same house and make them compete for a prize of $200,000.

From the beginning I expected that most of these people were probably willing to stirr up drama and manipulate their way to the top, they are villains after all. Strangely, I felt like this made the contestants seem more real. They don't get the chance to pretend they have nothing to hide and a lot of them seem to like the role of villain.

Most of the drama is light-hearted and the commentary from the host, the contestants and the production crew is pretty funny, at times hilarious.

Hoping there will be more seasons.

I was confused when I saw the low IMDb rating on account of how fantastic this show is. Being a huge big brother/survivor/general reality tv fan, it gives competitive gameplay and chaotic behavior from a group of large personalities. Omarosa delivers just like she did in the Big Brother house and Bananas and Fairplay are fun to see their minds work on the competition angle. I really have nothing bad to say about this show so far after 7 episodes in and I love how it never takes itself too seriously. I hope there's a season 2, and give it a shot and take it for what's it's worth. Entertaining, competitive gameplay.

If you like reality tv you will like this show. It has me laughing the entire time, it's not anything to take too seriously. It has a playfulness to it that I miss with reality tv. The confessionals are hilarious and editing brings out the "villain" personas of each person, yes it's exaggerated but that's what I love the most. This cast is really bringing the theatrics. Im surprised and so impressed at how well constructed this show is considering it's the first season. Also love Joel as the host. You can literally feel them having fun through the screen which makes me enjoy it that much more.

This is "The Sopranos" of reality tv, even if we only get a season of this show it will be referenced and quoted for years to come.

I watched with a grin from ear to ear a show that is not afraid to let its flaws show, giving us an inside and sometimes raw look into what goes on behind the scenes of making reality television.

Most of the cast played to win and if not they were there to play the "villain" role they have been assigned.

The competitions were equitable, where anyone could win at any point which also contributed to the fluidity of power, and by definition created the drama that is sought in such a show like this.

Any reality show out there should be looking at this show and learn from it.

If you dismiss reality tv as dumb or vapid or exploitative this show isn't gonna change your mind, stay on your high horse because I will be praying for a season 2 of House of Villains and I will be seated.
