100 Humans

Just watched Netflix's "100 Humans." It's interesting, but I don't think it's interesting in how the producers of the show intended it to be. Some of the experiments used such poorly thought out techniques that it was cringe-worthy. For example, as is common with such shows, the experiments in their "battle of the sexes" episode were so biased and pandering that I'd actually be insulted if I were a woman. Other experiments throughout the entire show had gigantic holes in them.

So, the show was interesting not because of any scientific information it provided, but because it illustrated that "scientific information" can be pulled and pushed into whatever form the presenter wishes the audience to see.

I don't know what I was expecting, but it was definitely better than what I saw. I'm not sure who the target audience is, but I'm certainly not part of it.

The hosts are annoying and the gimmicks are...it's just all around bad.

Would have been better with, you know, real science. But mildly entertaining anyway. So long as you're aware that actual science doesn't look anything like this.

Some bits are fun, some intriguing, and some flat out nonsense or just boring. Even the male host looks bored 99% of the time. Hit or miss, really.

After the first 2 or 3 episodes I was liking this show. But what transpired next was a barrage of inaccurate, agenda-pushing deceit. I have no respect for the hosts at all.

Then as each episode and experiment went by, the bias and fake science that was held up as real science just pushed me over the edge. I hope to God that people who watch this show think for themselves and can see how bad it is. It's almost dangerous. Seriously.
