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.

This is the show I look most forward to viewing each week. The Houseguests are magic, Joel McHale as Host is perfectly snarky and even the production crew who pop in and out complete the narrative and nurture the tone of the show.

It's a fresh take on all of these redundant reality shows with manufactured drama. Somehow, despite their villain titles and behavior, there is something equally charming about each contestant. The show also is an interesting examination, whether intended or not, of the burden and, maybe in some cases, desperation of having and keeping the image up. I can't believe more people aren't watching.

I don't know who created the show but I want to personally thank them for this incredibly fresh spin on reality tv competition shows. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. I only wish there was a way they all could remain in the house together while competing. The house dynamics are so good that it is almost more painful to see a contestant go than a deserving player on The Amazing Race or Survivor. I didn't even know half of the contestants before watching but now I genuinely am fascinated by them all.

So there you have it. This is the show to watch. Here's to hoping for a reunion episode of House of Villains!

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.

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.

Each person brings their own spark to the show. None of those stars shine as bright as Tiffany (New York) Pollard. She is in her delulu era and I'm hear for it. Challenge fans will recognize some of Johnny Bananas old tricks. Omarosa is as cunning and blunt just like she was on Celebrity Big Brother. The way each player is eliminates is hilarious. Joel McHale is the perfect host. The editing is pretty good. Only bad thing is the cliffhangers but I can get over that. Watching these people who have been on my television for twenty years separately interact with each other is a pleasure. The villains know their roles and came to play.
