I applaud Dynamo for using his platform for a greater purpose.

The production value of the show is top-notch, with stunning visuals and captivating performances. The episode is carefully crafted to keep the audience engaged and on the edge of their seats. I was constantly left in awe and wondering how he pulled off each trick.

But what truly sets "Dynamo is Dead" apart is its powerful message. The show not only entertains, but also educates and raises awareness about a topic that is often overlooked. It is a refreshing change from the typical magic shows and I applaud Dynamo for using his platform for a greater purpose.

A must-watch for anyone who enjoys magic, mentalism, or simply a thought-provoking and entertaining TV show. It is a perfect blend of magic and mental health, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Camera trickery and uncharismatic Dynamo

Thoroughly disappointed.

The show's premise fell-short due to its predictable narrative about self-improvement.

The magic tricks themselves try present mental breakthroughs, but the use of SFX to achieve this completely undermines the narrative and the magic itself.

The conclusion of the show, where Dynamo finally is buried, falls flat. The prior camera trickery in the show taints the believability and genuineness of this finale.

To me, this special presents Dynamo as a less talented and uncharismatic version of David Blaine.

Hopefully others will see through this poorly executed special.

BRILLIANT

I recently had the opportunity to watch the mesmerizing TV show "Dynamo is Dead" and I must say, it truly left a lasting impact on me. This outstanding show not only captivated me with its compelling stories but also shed a much-needed light on the importance of mental health, all while featuring an impressive lineup of celebrities.

The show's ability to address mental health issues with such sensitivity and care is truly commendable. It seamlessly weaves personal stories and experiences into its narrative, effectively bringing attention to the challenges faced by individuals dealing with mental health problems. I found this approach to be not only informative but also deeply moving, as it allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of these issues.

SO glad Dynamo is back!

Or should I say Steven Frayne - so so glad he is back on the scene and excited to see what he does this year.

It was amazing to hear the journey he has been on and why he has been quiet over the years, certainly adds more colour to his personality, life and ultimately the story of his magic.

Fabulous guest celebrities topped with the mind-blowing magic! I just want to know how he does everything!!

The anticipation for being buried alive really got me engaged throughout the show - definitely no spoilers here but it was intense!!! More like this please. A must watch for all old and new fans. Well done.

Great show with an important message

I really enjoyed this show, and it encouraged me to listen to his interview on Diary of a CEO afterwards (which is also great and puts the show in much more context).

The magic is generally really good, but the show included some important messages about mental health and overcoming struggles in life. A really interesting take on how to deliver Dynamo's new show with some real relevance to what he's been going through recently. Good choice of celebrities and people giving their own views on mental health and their personal journeys.

I look forward to what Dynamo does next as I feel this show is the precursor to a new era of creative magic from him.
