I normally tend to not like reality tv shows but when I started watching this show it was unlike anything I had seen before. i fell in love with all the players and loved how the game worked. if there was a possibility I could participate i would. I was always waiting for the next episode to air. overall it's a great show to watch and i would recommend it to everyone even if your not a reality buff. #Sammie&Shooby
So I saw the trailer for this and I thought "look at the garbage Netflix is picking up nowadays, these fools are desperate for content" but for reasons I'll never understand I put it on anyway. I never thought I'd get so invested in a show like this. I'm not too big into reality TV but now I'm texting all my friends like "watch The Circle so I can have someone to talk about this with! Trust me it's amazing!" Don't ask questions, just get past the first 15 minutes (lotta cringe) and bask in the glory of The Circle
Great show however it's main struggle is with the contestants eight times out of 10 they have the personality of a rock. Which makes it at the end of the season a bit cringe worthy and unwatchable. They need contestant with fun personality. And please take note being gay is not a personality.
The Circle is an unique and interesting original series from Netflix that gives the Big Brother vibe but instead of it being a game with ordinary people, we are treated with contestants who are or who have an social media following (and yes, I did my research on the contestant Instagram profiles) which I mean, it gives the show a little bit of that unique factor to it that makes it fun and exciting to watch. I do like the idea that the cast itself is diverse and have many different personalities where they can choose who they want to be which makes it so fun and overall, if you want a reality show that is different and a show where the contestants never come face to face with each other, then The Circle is one to watch.
Omg! I thought this show would be vapid and lame and annoying etc.
BUT the cast of Season One have totally won my heart. This ended up being a sweet, somewhat intelligent and completely hilarious and awesome show.
I am NOT in to reality TV whatsoever but this show hooked me.
I am curious to see if the tone changes in following seasons but it def came out swinging.
Hopefully the recipe isn't dependent on Chris, Joey, Sammie, 'Rebecca', or Shooby to bring the specialness.
