House of Villains

The show keeps getting funnier and funnier. I first started watching because I am a Challenge fan, and I wanted to see how Johnny Bananas would be portrayed. I usually hate him on The Challenge, but I find myself rooting for him on this show.

I'm also familiar with the other characters and their respective shows. I hated Shake on his show, Omarosa, on her show, and Johnny Fairplay on his shows. On this show however, they're all super funny and play right into the villain characters. Bobby and all the other characters are hilarious also.

Joel McHale and the production crew really know how to work the show and make it entertaining.

I almost quit watching after the first episode because it seems so boring and contrived. But I gave it a couple more episodes and by the third episodes I was hooked. I only gave it nine stars because I don't think there should be a second season. I just don't think it would be as good as the first.

This is "The Sopranos" of reality tv, even if we only get a season of this show it will be referenced and quoted for years to come.

I watched with a grin from ear to ear a show that is not afraid to let its flaws show, giving us an inside and sometimes raw look into what goes on behind the scenes of making reality television.

Most of the cast played to win and if not they were there to play the "villain" role they have been assigned.

The competitions were equitable, where anyone could win at any point which also contributed to the fluidity of power, and by definition created the drama that is sought in such a show like this.

Any reality show out there should be looking at this show and learn from it.

If you dismiss reality tv as dumb or vapid or exploitative this show isn't gonna change your mind, stay on your high horse because I will be praying for a season 2 of House of Villains and I will be seated.

If you like reality tv you will like this show. It has me laughing the entire time, it's not anything to take too seriously. It has a playfulness to it that I miss with reality tv. The confessionals are hilarious and editing brings out the "villain" personas of each person, yes it's exaggerated but that's what I love the most. This cast is really bringing the theatrics. Im surprised and so impressed at how well constructed this show is considering it's the first season. Also love Joel as the host. You can literally feel them having fun through the screen which makes me enjoy it that much more.

I was confused when I saw the low IMDb rating on account of how fantastic this show is. Being a huge big brother/survivor/general reality tv fan, it gives competitive gameplay and chaotic behavior from a group of large personalities. Omarosa delivers just like she did in the Big Brother house and Bananas and Fairplay are fun to see their minds work on the competition angle. I really have nothing bad to say about this show so far after 7 episodes in and I love how it never takes itself too seriously. I hope there's a season 2, and give it a shot and take it for what's it's worth. Entertaining, competitive gameplay.

Anyone reviewing this show as less than five is not the target audience. If you love reality shows, if you love competition and if you love drama, this show is for you. The humor is 10 out of 10, the fights are petty and the gameplay is advanced. I'm laughing out loud every single episode, and half of the house guests are as well. My only complaint would be that there is a deficit between people coming in who has played strategy games before and people who have not but that makes the dynamic that much funnier. This show is a gift for the seasoned reality show viewer. If you're not watching house of villains, you're missing out on the most fun hour of TV happening right now.
