It would be better if they would not reveal to us at home who they are. I would rather guess myself. It would at least then be a bit of fun for the home viewers as well.

I'd say it's more of a 9.5 rating, because it could use a couple of tweaks. But first.....

Some of these bad reviews are just being silly. It may not be your cup of tea but some of those descriptions are so juvenile. 🙄

My favorite things: I loved all the puzzles and clues. All of the challenges were unique and interesting and I loved the one hour format, because they used that time wisely. I personally enjoyed learning more about these individuals and the 'confession chair' was informative, and a lot of fun. Many people like a 30 minute run time because TV trains attention spans to be very, very short. Aren't there enough crazy, over the top, dramatic shows out there? Ones that allow, neigh, encourage extreme negative behavior? They're just a chance to show the very worst of yourselves to the whole world. The more outlandish and over the top, the better the ratings.

This show is a little more meaty than that. And, while each character was a bit of an jerk on occasion, it was more the nature of advancing in the game than getting to behave consequence free. This game was meant for the contestants as well as the viewers.

This show wanted to showcase the contestant's personality, knowledge, puzzle and problem solving capabilities and strategy efforts. And I love that the time format allowed for that.

My biggest complaint is similar to some other reviews here. I wish that none of the contestants revealed to us who they were, right up front. Not sure why they left that up to the contestant because I'd guess most viewers wanted to play along too. The ones that didn't reveal, created fun audience participation. I really enjoyed working those out as the show went on.

I loved the dynamic of the contestants. Yes, there was some drama. But nothing cut throat.

Logan was my favorite person. Only one person really made a fool out of themselves, and that was on their departure. Just really a very unfortunate, ugly display of nastiness.

I really do hope the ratings are there for them to do a second season. What a breath of fresh air!

I'm on episode three and this is the first reality show I've seen that actually revolves around strategy and alliances to win. Instead of pointless carnival games and calling each other fake while ugly crying before getting voted out by group mentality, the contestants actually have to think about what they are doing, and use their information to play the game. Even the mini challenges are interesting, because what matters more than winning is the clues they get from said challenges, and losing on pupose can also be a strategy. On top of that the contestants are fun and likeable, and there's the intrigue of finding out who they really are. There's some classic big brother drama here and there but it's mostly light. Also, having the 'Jonas Brothers' Brother and his Brother as hosts is top meme.

While the show is not perfect, it is a good way to pass half an hour. The mystery dynamic of attempting to figure out relationships is what keeps the show engaging and entertaining. That said, the show does attempt to rely too heavily on drama when the real intrigue is attempting to decode the relationships. I feel this show has potential, but some changes need to be made for this to be viable for a second season.

I don't understand a single negative review. This show is amazing! For anyone who loves shows like Big Brother and games with a lot of strategy, this show has it all! I highly recommend... which I understand is meaningless because you don't know me... but either way, it's a better show than it sounds like it would be. Much better!

Logan and LC are the new greatest reality show duo's in history. Anyone disagree? Fight me. I hope it gets a season two! If it doesn't I will cry a lot and nobody needs that. Especially not my partner. He would be so furious with all of you if you allowed that to happen.
