007 : En Route pour le million

I usually don't watch shows like this but the 007 got me.

I love the Bond franchise but I'm not an avid fan. I watched the show with the Xray on and I learnt a lot of things about the locations and all the Bond references that are scattered along.

The participants casting was really good. I loved the Bone brothers and the nurses as well. Average people like us with very general knowledge, a knack for solving mysteries and stay chilled in all circumstances !

I loved this show and I really hope the second season will as well curated as this one. The Barbara Brocolli producing credit is definitely a quality warranty !

Really enjoyed the document track and Brian Cox and the trivia and the action and the contests .

A epic reality spanning the globe . Following in Bonds footsteps location wise and technology wise . Some gadgets , alligators, snakes , spiders , cliff scaling , rope climbing .

Lots of trivia questions but to get the answer correct leads to more tests of courage and or strength agility .

I would recommend this show it can only get better . I feel the producers will see any mistake and or area to improve upon.

Epic show with epic payouts . People need to watch this if they like reality shows like the amazing race and or survivor.

This is a tv show which has nothing to do with the James Bond series. I don't know why they have spent so much money to get the 007 name and the theme. The production is big, encompassing many countries but the whole show lacks energy and excitement. They have Brian Cox to head the show but he does nothing nor adds nothing to the show. Any guy with a voicebox would do. I love well written reality shows like Taskmaster or Traitors and this isn't one of them. This show promises the adventures of James Bond but it doesn't deliver. Locations + cabriolets + soundtrack is not equal Bond adventures. What the contestants do is go around different locations, find briefcases which contain questions and answer them. This is the scope of Bond life promised. I hope they do better with new episodes.

A good reality TV show, but you really need to know your Bond to find the links with the movies. For example, Drax is mentioned in one episode, and the iconic cable cars are shown from Moonraker. Also referenced is Live and Let Die, Octopussy, Dr No, and On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

The contestants are interesting and in no way appear shallow or spolit. They're ordinary people trying to make money on a very difficult game show.

Brain Cox does a great job at playing the 'villian,' and he keeps the show going. However, the challenges often appear harsh for some, and a little easier for others.

I enjoyed this show, but you've got to know your Bond. The contestants don't really know there Bond so as viewers you're almost left to infer the links.

There is an abundance of tv shows taking uk contestants around the world and/or the world for their chance at winning a cash prize.

This one is different, you can tell it has a big budget and the cinematography is really next level because of this. It's definitely got class.

As you will see by some reviews, people quit after 10 minutes, making their review reflecting nothing but the genre of the show. It's fun, the contestants all brought something different. You really do hope they get past each challenge.

It's really well edited, apart from a 2 second shot from a helicopter, there is no evidence of a film crew being there, you start to feel like you are the third person there.

Of course there is a bit of cheese, any fan of James Bond can look back and see a bit of cheese here and there.

Brian Cox was of course brilliant also.

Yes someone moaned about the bone brothers. They are not asking you to be friend with them, they were a class act. Really authentic characters, and deserved to get as far as they did, if not even further.
