Some honorable mentions:

Country Music topic owner did not recognize Garth Brooks.

Pink Panther gay dude stood there for about 15 seconds

The blonde lady looked like she was going to jump Robs bones on stage.

Great show, will watch again.

Country music girl inherited that topic from someone that challenged her on one of the first couple episodes. Guy with plants should be most ashamed he was the only one in final 5 that had his own topic and still got beat

The guy at the end overthought it. He should have just picked food. Why pick fashion icons against a woman? He had a much better chance to beat her in a food category.

I think he figured she had time to study international foods, but it was still the best choice for him IMO.

Also, I am not sure I like the idea of they get to study. I wonder how long they go between episodes. Would be awesome if a contestant did an Ask Me Anything .

They filmed 1-2 episodes daily in Ireland, so filming took about 4-5 days. I think they were able to film the final 3 episodes on the last day.

For each episode, they gave them a lunch/dinner break for a few hours and they got to go back to the hotel each night so many of them studied up on their categories. That's why you notice the final two episodes most of the contestants were much better than the first 20 or so duels.

the one guy last episode was "fabulous" for about 60 seconds then he was gone.




But the show focused on him every show until he was gone. Showed him and the pink queer every single second they could. I dont know why they think people want to see that shite all the damn time


Finished the show last night and it was great other wise. Would certainly watch again but like Survivor, the strategy of the show will be changed for ever. The girl in the highlighter dress making it to the finals by just hiding in the corner will make everyone want to just sit it out as long as they can

I really liked this show. It could use a few tweaks. It seems unfair for one person to take on multiple challenges while one person can literally hand around and only win one or 2 challenges and win it all.

There should be a "save" option if a player wins a certain number of challenges. 5,6,7..whatever.

I would also add allowing the "attacker" to have a choice between their topic and the person they're attacking.

That's where the strategy element kicks in when someone chooses to go back to the floor.

I fully expected it to come down to two whales battling for it all. Boy, was I wrong

Reminds me of The Weakest Link, where the odds are stacked against the smartest players.

That - and those spectacularly weird-looking contestants - could make it tough to watch any future seasons.

he was the one i was looking forward to the most given how they portrayed him early on. i thought he would be more interesting or have a more significant part in the show.

Olympics guy " no body wants to face me on Olympic sports".. and he's gone


chick? that inherited country music. Rob, that was garth brooks. player "oh frick!"



who is the chick in the green and black dress? and why did she get so much screen time? and why was she all over the floor instead of staying in her box?

Yeah, I made a comment to Mrs. Vox something to that effect.

Yeah this had to be his thought process but we said the same thing when we watched, it’s just food, definitely had a better chance with that than fashion.


Agree that it kind of sucks that the best strategy is just to hide and avoid competing.

The one who won it all only won three duels right? She won the first two on the first night then never went again until the very last duel. Seems like there should maybe be a second prize for the contestant with the most duel wins overall. Would incentivize people to actually compete.


Also, holy shite the one hit wonder category had to be the hardest of the entire season. Think I only knew 3 or 4 in the whole category.

Would watch a second season.

That is the part I did not like. The way the game works, it was easy to see that someone who either had never been picked or someone who went back to the floor but was "landlocked" from the randomizer was going to just sit and wait until the end and win it all. Something needs to be done to prevent that.
