Nice that they made the final board questions easy in the last episode, I suppose they had to go out with a win, otherwise an enjoyable quiz show although I think they could have changed contestants more often, hope there will be a second series.

Excellent layout of the with the various categories that remain the same through the show. Also, it is enticing that the contestants remain the same until one of the team leaders wins which is good in that it keeps you wanting to watch!

This show is just brilliant.

Really hope there's another series.

Love the layout, love how they keep the same contestants. Perfect quiz show.

I just got done watching Head Hunters and I have to say that I love this show and it was just such a blast to watch, easily one of the better gameshows I have seen in recent years. I absolutely adored the personalities of some of the contestants (especially Alex, Anna, Stuart, Mish, Andrew, Michael, Victoria and Dubem), it is entirely refreshing to see all the different categories being changed up with each episode as well as most of the same contestants being kept throughout the series and I just really do love the format here. Plus, I freaking love the theme tune here, easily one of the best gameshow theme tunes I have heard in quite some time.

I'm actually genuinely shocked that this has lasted for only just one series (thanks a lot, BBC!) and I really do wish it came back for longer than just the one series.

In fact, if this show were to come back, the only thing I'd personally change is the host not necessarily because I think Rob Beckett does a bad job as the host per se but rather especially coming from someone who is not at all a huge fan of his comedy and am of the opinion that he doesn't seem like the right choice here, plus his attempts at humour don't quite work.

In conclusion, despite my personal reservations on Rob Beckett as the host, with a great format, consistently engaging differing categories, likeable and fun-to-watch contestants and an especially kickass and awesome theme tune, I would most definitely highly recommend that you check out this show if you really want to entertain yourself during lunchtime hours.

My overall rating for Head Hunters: 9.5/10.

Love this show. It should be on BBC prime time. Presenter Rob Beckett is so natural and great with the contestants. This deserves to replace the likes of Pointless. The fact you get to know the contestants is great. The question format is good and bidding for your fellow guests is always entertaining. I was hooked on this show and really made my day as far as quizzes are concerned. A quiz show that keeps you involved throughout. Best quiz show for a long while. Hope there's more to come.
