Lego Masters : États-Unis

I'll make this short and to the point. The LEGO building is amazing! The writing and jokes are not. Their is terrible, unnecessary drama and people crying ALL THE TIME for dumb reasons. This would've been better as a straight up reality competion instead of a scripted, melodramatic-"try hard to make the audience chuckle"-type show. I do reccomend though because the creations are stunning!

"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.

Either I'm getting old or the people behind this program are clueless. Forced emotional drama, flashy effects while someone is talking, loud music and an intro made up of "dramatic" moments don't necessarily make for a good program. If I wanted that there are plenty of programs like that to pick from. I tuned into this for the Lego builds and build process, not forced dramatic tripe. Deeply disappointing waste of time. 1/10.

Please less reality show drama and more killer builds. I don't care how long it takes them. I would much prefer see experts make insane 3 day builds that are worthy of legoland than see a rushed attempt at something. At the very least give them more time than you did. No one wants to see half assed builds because of some arbitrary time crunch.

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!
