Battle Camp

Loved it!!!

I basically just watched this in search of new reality competition shows since I've been waiting forever for new episodes of The Amazing Race and The Floor. And I totally loved it, rewatched it again and followed the cast as well.

It was interesting due to the show's premise and backdrop, but what sealed the deal was the cast. The cast chemistry was phenomenal and the music actually slaps - tbh, one of the few shows I watched that did the background music right...I actually ended up watching some of the shows the cast were in especially Georgia's!!

Totally recommended for people looking for something fun, interesting, and exciting to watch.

All I can say, please make season 2 now!

I love these kind of shows. However, is it really necessary to show close-ups of bodily fluids exiting the orifices of the human body. It's disgusting. We don't need to see that kind of thing.

Another thing that annoys me about these shows is that they selecting participants from previous shows who have already had their chance at fame and fortune. Is the USA so lacking in basic talent? Most of these contestants are only slightly interesting, at best. Time to give other people a chance. I'm sick of seeing the same boring faces on every reality show that I watch.

The show itself is a good program, for those of us who love reality game shows. But the contestants need to be new, not sad people with zero talent looking to be famous.

Battle Camp is a fun show! As far as competition shows go, it has it all... drama, alliances, action, and a new element... luck! The wheel determines who stays or goes so while game play and strategy are important, anyone can go when the wheel is spun. This makes for some really dramatic moments. The cast is fun and likeable (except when they're not!) and the element of teams really makes you root for the people you like most. There doesn't seem to be contrived conflict and you can tell that genuine friendships develop between cast members. This show is worth a watch and I can't wait for Season 2!

Ok so Battle Camp on Netflix is seriously my new fave show. Like no joke it's miles ahead of any other comp show on there, even The Circle which I used to be obsessed with. It gives Survivor meets The Challenge vibes but with way better energy and a more chill, fun atmosphere. The music slaps, the guys on the cast are hot af, and it actually feels real like the producers aren't constantly trying to stir stuff up. It's refreshing. The cast has chemistry, the challenges are fun to watch, and I legit can't stop binging it. I really hope they do a season 2 cause I'm hooked. Honestly I didn't expect to love it this much but now I'm telling all my friends to watch. It's that good.

I like the concept of the show: the games, the structure, and the overall idea are engaging. While some might find the use of the wheel unfair, I personally don't mind it; in fact, it adds an unpredictable twist that keeps things interesting.

However, as the series progresses, it becomes increasingly clear that much of the show is scripted. The contestants, while seemingly spontaneous, can come across as "good" actors playing assigned roles to stir up drama and specific dynamics. While this might be entertaining to some, certain moments feel overly produced and, frankly, quite fake, making it hard to suspend disbelief.

The blend of reality and performance doesn't always land well, and for viewers hoping for more authentic reactions and competition, it might be disappointing...
