Review:
The final group of the second round have their go and of course Koshiyama ends up paired with the girl (who is actually a guy) from the arcade who really is just a jerk. There’s no other way to describe someone who treats others with that much disdain. Really, really wishing, that his team leader had actually sent him home after that round.
Despite really hating that character, the quiz was still fun and because of the format of needing two people to buzz in I was actually hearing enough of most of the questions to guess an answer which was entertaining. The outcome of the round is pretty much what you would expect at this point in the season, but I’m just not sure adding that character was a good idea. The characters so far have been relatively benign and then adding one truly irritating individual to the mix does not seem like a good plan.
I guess it did mix things up a bit, but this was probably my least favourite episode so far of this show.
Thanks for reading.

I hate that character so much. At least this is a series I enjoy a lot. I have taken breaks from series in the past because of irritating characters
They really weren’t a necessary addition to the cast. I think if he’d been there from the start I probably would have dropped the series because he is really annoying.
I missed this week’s episode. Need to catch up this weekend. Sounds like an interesting episode though. I’ll have more to say next week once I’ve caught up 🙂
My reviews are about a week behind on this one but I don’t think I’ll catch up until the end of the season now because I just don’t have time to do a double episode if I want to keep up with everything else.
No worries. We’ve been watching about the same pace. It’s nice to be able to actually talk about a current show, especially one like this that not a lot of folks are watching.
It is a shame there aren’t more people talking about this one. While it is never going to be a number one hit, it is quite good for what it is trying to do.
I’d agree with that.
