The haphazard and totally unnecessary second season undid a lot of the goodwill I had for the charming first season.... almost.

Not sure why people are raking Mr. Beast over the coals for hosting a show where people compete willingly for money when that is literally the premise of every reality competition ever. It's entertaining, and the scale is just insane. What else can you ask for?

Thank God for Eddie Remayne! Were we supposed to be upset by the finale?

Great for watching along with my conservative family since I don't suffer too much.

The book was better. Duh.

From the ending, I guess a second season was never even considered lol. How refreshing to see gay, lesbian and bisexual characters portrayed as scheming murderers too. Pretty fun stuff. Doubt it's very historically accurate if that's your thing.

In in the minority here I'm sure, but I think the Damon movie was better. I mean, Andrew Scott is great, but how are we supposed to believe him in this role when he is 48! And it's just too long and dour for heaven's sake!

It didn't quite stick the landing, but I honestly thought that this was very thought-provoking and intelligent. I ended up reading the book after it was over because I found it so interesting.

Why wasn't this nominated in the comedy category at the Golden Globes? Surely this was funnier than The Bear?

Wonderful acting and cinematography, but the story has become so pointless and repetitive.

Slow but informative. Great performances.

The anticlimactic character deaths almost ruined it for me.

You went full Noah Hawley. Never go full Noah Hawley.

One of the bleakest series I have ever seen. It's incredibly slow and wastes lots of time panning across rooms while people move around under neon lighting in slow motion. That said, while I don't exactly recommend it, there were many performances and moments in this series that have stuck with me.

Wow the character deaths though.

The poor man's Mindhunter.

Really cool production, but the pacing was just soooooo slow.

How does anyone get past season 6? Snooooooze.

This Eddie Redmayne actor is really good. Bet he wins an Oscar someday.
