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.

Two of the Jonas brothers host this near-celebrity game show that is a competition. Each of the contestants is related to a famous person. The goal is to guess the familial connections of the other contestants while keeping your connection a secret. If your connection is officially guessed, you are eliminated from the show.

Like "Big Brother" or other shows where the contestants live together, bonds are formed and alliances are made. Contestants use various strategies to remain in the house.

Along the way, lots of clues are dropped and---if you win one of the regular games---you can earn extra clues.

The tone of the show is light and the games are often playful. Viewers will probably enjoy guessing along with the players. Physical resemblances and personality traits can be clues or red herrings. If you enjoy game shows like "The Mole", where clues are used to decipher facts, this show might be for you.

It is so refreshing to watch a reality show with a brand new concept. I thoroughly enjoy the show and I'm looking forward to all the seasons to come. It would be great if they did not reveal the relatives to the viewers at home so we could guess along, but other than that it's so fun and interactive! Lovely that the challenges are not lame, but they actually require teamwork and critical thinking, as well as testing your pop culture knowledge which is always fun. Kevin and Frankie are great hosts and I enjoy how they are not cheesy and quirky as most reality show hosts are.

Don't listen to the haters! The show has great potential. See you at the next watch party!!!

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 decided to try to watch it because the concept sounded interesting, but with how "reality tv" normally goes I wasn't hopeful. I was genuinely surprised with how this one was really good.
