The GOAT

One big reason I am really enjoying this show is because Tosh is the host, I'm a big fan. Also, really don't like any reality TV shows I have seen, and I've seen quite a few...well, because I have dated a number of women, so it comes with the territory.

One thing I really have about reality TV is that these shows take themselves far to seriously, and the contenders as well. I'm sure in most reality TV shows have applied psychologists pick the reality actors, to be psychologically toxic, sociopathic, and create an environment for terrible behavior. Or, really most reality TV is just boring, and pointless.

The GOAT, is definitely a light hearted show, which really make fun of reality TV, via satire. I also, like the contestants, because they do have fun personalities, some are just charming. And in the GOAT things do "get real" so that aspect is fun to watch in moderate doses.

If you are like me, I think you will really enjoy the GOAT. For those who are big fans of reality TV, I can see how this show might not have enough entertainment value for you. Still, for the reality TV lovers, this show does have everything, so give it a go. You might enjoy a more light hearted funny satire.

I actually thought the show was quite an intriguing idea which left plenty on the table for additional seasons and refined gameplay. The cast was a great start and you could find a character among them to latch onto and root for. I think the star of it happened to be Daniel Tosh and his innate ability to bring wit to each scene. He brought his i dont care if this is inappropriate attitude to the set and they let him fly with it, which I think was a fantastic move by the shows creators - use your talent, and he was bringing it. I hope he comes back to host a 2nd season, we would certainly watch it. Definitely recommend!

This show, like House of Villians, is MADE by its host. Joel McHale is hilarious, but Tosh easily tops him in quantity of actual laugh out loud moments.

I knew his old show, and had watched occasionally, but his improv spur of the moment stuff he constantly spits off the top of his head is killer! Sure, some is scripted/edited in, but this stuff is so rapid fire there's no way it's all scripted.

He's also completely comfortable looking ridiculous, and uses that somewhat physical humor, as well as self-deprecation masterfully!

The actual competion and reality part is uninteresting enough to me to just be a one time watch, but I'm actually going to re-watch this just to process all the laughs Tosh packs in each episode! Probably.

Yes it's the bottom of the barrel when it comes to "reality tv" Competitions? The competitions are haphazard at best. But Tosh points that out. Randomly walks around the house. If you are a Tosh fan... then you can power through the moments when he's not on screen. Mediocre show enhanced by one of the best comedians around.

They definitely have something here. They do need to get actual reality stars that more people will recognize. It's an entertaining concept... just put together half ass, last minute. Put some more effort into the actual competitions. Make them actually hard. A show I hope they continue and re took a bit.

Daniel Tosh does an excellent job of taking the seriousness out of reality tv. His approach of introducing ridiculous challenges to contestants - for example The contestants had to build a raft of pool noodles to cross a pool to unlock a chest. At one point, a contestant asked why there is plywood when there's nothing to tie it together. The subtle bit of satire is what makes the show so funny and great and different from the seriousness of the high budget TV shows that America is obsessed with.

I think anybody going into the show looking for serious competition and drama are going to be disappointed. The point of the show is to poke fun at mainstream tv.
