The first episode alone is obnoxiously boring. Introduction scenes alone takes like half an hour. Then there are constant clips of them; TikTok clips after TikTok clips, I feel like I'm watching a TikTok compilation. Not literally every single one of these needs their clips played to introduce them to prove how "big of a deal" they are.

It's like the producers saw people complaining about influencers in reality TV shows instead of normal people and thought, "You know what we need? Seventy of them in the same room." Let's see dozens of people walking around , talking, using their phones, how entertaining could it be ? It might get better as time goes on and few people are left, but the first episode is such a drag I don't even care to watch any more of this.

I watch survivor shows for light entertainment and that is what it is to me. Proved to be entertaining in it's own way. The top 77 influencers in Korea battle it out to win the title of top influencer and a bundle of cash to go along with it. The first episode was a bit hard to get through as each person is introduced and one person seems freakier than the next. Once the show gets started you can see how it is going to be fair as the competitions are designed in unique ways to level the playing field despite one's fame, experience or expected performance of each challenge. A few things were creepy for example wearing the collars, being put in cages and being auctioned off (best influencer bid). Just strange and creepy. Overall entertaining show and with only 7 episodes fun to watch.

I recently had the opportunity to view 'The Influencer', a new series on Netflix. The initial episodes, while somewhat slow-paced, serve an important purpose: they introduce the cast of Korean influencers to a global audience that may not be familiar with them.

The design of the games is a standout feature of the show. It is clear that the writers have invested significant thought into ensuring the games are fair, engaging, and a true measure of the influencers' abilities.

One of the most intriguing aspects of the series is the opportunity to see the influencers outside of their usual context. This shift provides not only a fresh perspective for the viewers, but also a chance for the influencers themselves to engage in self-reflection.

The production quality of the show is commendable, reflecting a high level of attention to detail.

Moreover, the series has drawn comparisons to 'Black Mirror', and I find myself in agreement with this sentiment. 'The Influencer' raises thought-provoking questions that linger long after the end of each episode. The polarized reactions and active discussions across various platforms attest to the show's ability to engage viewers on a deeper level.

In conclusion, 'The Influencer' is a well-crafted series that offers a unique and insightful look into the world of influencers. I eagerly anticipate the release of future episodes.
