Lego Masters

The first episode was very promising but the second episode is mainly drama with a sprinkling of LEGO. How about a LEGO competition show where we get to see all the models in detail.

I like Will Arnett, Legos, Badass Builders and Weekly Fox competition shows. So combining all these 'bricks' together should be an easy masterbuild, right? But it's quirky hosting is obnoxiously scripted and I can no longer tell if it's supposed to be ironic or authentic. It's family friendly fun but sometimes I'm confused on who their focused audience is. Adults? Or easily humored children? The second season specifically has added more cringe factor and it's become too cheesy to enjoy.

I do not understand why Americans insist on tleeling the entire plot in the trailer. Envry single episodes. And what's up with the extreme facial expressions? It's ridiculous!

Absolutely love the idea for this show and the challenges are great. But there is just way tot much fabricated drama and time spent talking and focusing on drama. Show the freaking builds and techniques and creativity. They spend like 5 minutes per episode showing off and explaining the final builds, and there are like 10 builds.

"Lego Masters" is a competition show in which ten teams of two builders each compete for $100,000. In the pilot, host Will Arnett introduces the two judges and explains the concept of the "golden brick"---awarded to the winner of the day's competition, it gives that team immunity from elimination when redeemed.

The teams are extremely diverse, from all demographics. And there is a variety of relationships: newlyweds, father-son teams, fellow cosplayers, etc.

The first episode had the teams building theme parks over the course of 15 hours. That sounds like plenty of time, but they needed all of it to design, build and motorize their themed amusement parks.

The tone of the show is light and humorous, thanks in large part to host Arnett. But the teams are very serious about winning and displaying their talents. Lego-philes should love it. For anyone who likes creative play, this is great fun.
