Spy Games

Behind the scenes of spies in the making. Yet another cheap reality program.

This show is inconsistent, boring and its title very misleading, there is almost no "Spy" Action, almost all of the show is just boring house melodrama the kind of which we've seen in a hundred more interesting reality shows, I stop watching 3/4 down and I really don't care who won, I'm not going to loose my sleep over it, Disappointing

"Spy Games" is a reality game show with 10 contestants vying for a $100,000 top prize. During the show, they live in the same house. There are three intelligence experts (ex-CIA, -FBI, -Secret Service) who assess their performance and eliminate one contestant per episode.

In the first two episodes, there are lessons about covert information gathering and lock picking. The contestants learn that this is not about being like James Bond; a premium is placed on being the unobtrusive "gray man".

The contestants come from a wide variety of backgrounds---everything from a prison psychologist to a video game exec. Their different personalities make some of them more suitable than others for espionage. Gaining information is a key skill. Some use trickery and deceit to gain it; others use alliances and cooperative play.

This show will be as entertaining as the missions the producers have devised for the competitions. The first two missions were diverse and interesting.

I don't think Bravo advertised this series much, so it may have a small audience.

I try not to watch any reality television, but once in a while something catches my eye where I tell myself "Hm, this might actually be good".

For a show that boasts being inspired by the once-secret World War II government program known as "Station S" I was dead wrong and ultimately duped by a catchy show description, it definitely falls into the category of shows I wish I never saw.

Beyond the judges who I feel should star in their own movies/shows, the rest was pure garbage. Horrible contestants, which is the usual scummy type of people that these shows tend to cast, "missions" that are at best substandard escape rooms, and a final winner that really didn't deserve it.

I liked this show! I could have loved it but found it a little bland and it had a lot of missed opportunities and there a certainly better shows out there. I loved the core cast I.E. the judges but they were way to soft on the contestants. As for the contestants for the most part they were a joke. Far to clueless or to large an ego and i DO NOT give a crap about their own sob stories. The SPY game is not like in the movies it is far to serious a business and nobody seamed to really be taking it all seriously. At least this show did NOT!. Every contestant SHOULD HAVE BEEN waterboarded. Felt the bite of a rubber hose across their backs, thrown naked in a cold cell without food or water for three days. Been questioned non-stop for 36 hours straight then asked to perform some task. They should have made it real. At least more real. One of the BIGGEST missed opportunities was this is "SPY" GAMES one of the contestants should have been a "SPY" a ringer part of the game the one to beat. The "SPY" is only revealed in the final. At the end there should have been only two contestants left, with one of them the SPY who can NOT WIN the game because they are the game. Make it so the contestant knows they have lost, only for it to be revealed at the last moment that they have been duped by the SPY and have in fact won. IT IS AFTER ALL "SPY GAMES".
