The Floor

I get the lights and the fun every day people playing. Not sure why we need to know the inside scoop on every player, especially the ones that lose right away. How hard would it be to move this faster and have a couple more rounds of players actually playing the game? Is it really that hard to come up with questions for this 'game'?

The premise is solid, the execution is mush. Advertisements and deep dives into people we really have no want or need to know about completely ruin what could have been a fun time for all.

I had a conversation with my wife about this show before she had seen an episode and I asked her to watch episode one and tell me what her grade would be. Her first sentence was, "When they finally played the game, I was in the other room doing something else."

Been captivated by this since the first episode. Why? The unpredictable & unlimited variety of categories and the intriguing way they are shifted among the contestants. Keeps you on your toes. Also, the way the dynamics among the players develop over time can be fascinating. Some incredible bonds can be formed among them, so the rivalries can be intense and fun and almost always friendly.

Curious about something. S3E11, in the second battle, the clock didn't stop the first time the contestant said the answer "German". Has anyone heard any feedback about that? I would think some adjustment might be in order.

Either way, it is a great show, whether for trivia challenge or watching human successes and foibles.

As in every trivia game, it is always fun to test your own skills and knowledge at home with your family against the contestants.

The premise is interesting in an overall outlook. But when you actually see the show, you find that it is less about skill and more about luck, random chance, and uneven rules.

I summarize and suggest some changes which could really add to the show's potential:

1) Contestants who excel and win several games in a row should be «saved» for the final round. In this way, you make sure the final will be exciting and batlled among the very two, three or four best. To watch a poor contestant who is called for duty just in the last round and wins it all is very disappointing and anti-climactic.

2) A failed answer by a contestant should be transfered to the opponent, that is, a pass or fail would be 'inherited' by the other, just as you inherit categories. This makes chances more even every time a difficult item is shown in the screen.

3) The required level of specification is uneven and unfair across categories. In some matches, just the last name is enough, but in others, a detailed and full compound answer is needed for the answer to be validated. Arbitrary criteria should be rectified to make matches fairer.

4) Also the level of difficulty across categories is uneven. Some involve the easiest images of everyday items (a spoon, a notebook, traffic lights), and other categories have a different kind of prompt which makes them quite more difficult, such as showing Shakespeare's quotes to guess the name of the work. This might be interesting but it is not fair and suggests suspicion of rigged hands.

5) Finally, all the «scripted» short remarks by the contestants, shown between matches as fillers, sound fake, and they put viewers off instead of creating expectation or interest. Less is more, in this case.

Rob Lowe is okay. Not smashingly good or epoch-making, but fulfills the role well enough.

In short, the show is promising and basically good, but I expect more changes and adjustments in next seasons.

Wow! What a great new show which commences with having.a welcomed 81 contestants stand on a floor grid with each contestant owning their specific category which varies from bugs, to cereals, to technology categories and anything else that can be categorized which is basically unlimited.

The Floor which uses two contestants to battle against each other with one contestant winning their opponents share of the grid floor. Strategically the viewing audience can witness how one or more contestants may become vulnerable as grid spaces are won or lost and the contestant who wins the most grid spaces during the weekly game also wins a $20,000.00 prize with the last (wo)man standing winning the Grand prize of $250,000.00.

Mathematically speaking we can see that the weekly prize value of $20,000.00 and the Grand prize value of $250,000.00 which will take several weeks to eventually be awarded indicates that this game show is not about the producers giving away millions of dollars or neither cars or luxury vacations. No, this game show is more about a competitive game show where the audience can play along guessing as the two contestants battle each other to win the other contestants grid(s) that they currently own. The two battling contestants start off with a thirty (30) second clock which only descends with a wrong answer, and a three (3) second penalty if a contestant passes on a clue. The contestant whose clock goes from 30 to 0 seconds first loses their match and sent packing home.

If you win you continue, and if you lose you go home. The host is well known film and Tv personality. Rob Lowe who takes a backstage to the contestants whose backgrounds are as diverse as the catgories they are competing for. This game is like Jeopardy with its categories but on steroids since Jeopardy has three (3) contestants and The Floor commences each new game with eighty one (81) contestants.

I give this new and exciting game show a perfect 10 IMDb rating and it's been a long time since.a successful game show such as Jeopardy, Let's Make a Deal, and/or. The Price Is Right came along.

If you are looking for a new game show to watch, you might want to check out The Floor on Fox. The show, hosted by the charming Rob Lowe, is a clever and exciting competition that tests the contestants' knowledge and strategy on a variety of topics. The show's format is simple but effective: each contestant claims expertise in a certain topic, such as "Dogs," "80s TV," or "Nepo Babies." They then face off in duels, where they have to identify items from images or fill in the blanks. The catch is that they only have 45 seconds on their clock, and the only way to stop it is to answer correctly. The winner of the duel takes over the loser's space on the floor, a 9x9 grid where they stand. The goal is to expand their territory and eliminate their opponents. The last contestant standing wins $250,000, and the contestant with the most squares at the end of each episode wins $20,000.

The Floor is a game show that keeps you on the edge of your seat, as you watch the contestants try to outsmart and outguess each other. The duels are fast and fun, with clues ranging from easy to hard, and topics from obscure to popular. The show also adds some elements of reality TV, as the contestants interact with each other and reveal their personalities and strategies in side interviews. The host, Rob Lowe, adds some humor and charisma to the show, as he comments on the duels and chats with the contestants.

The Floor is a game show that is both entertaining and educational, as you learn new facts and trivia along the way. It is also a game show that is different from the typical ones, as it uses visual clues and a unique scoring system. The Floor is a game show that is worth watching, as it offers a fresh and fun twist to the genre.
