House of Villains

Usually I avoid reality shows as I find them fake, over edited and predictable. I'm so happy I gave this a chance. It felt like a refreshing take on the genre. The concept is to put "villains" from different reality shows into the same house and make them compete for a prize of $200,000.

From the beginning I expected that most of these people were probably willing to stirr up drama and manipulate their way to the top, they are villains after all. Strangely, I felt like this made the contestants seem more real. They don't get the chance to pretend they have nothing to hide and a lot of them seem to like the role of villain.

Most of the drama is light-hearted and the commentary from the host, the contestants and the production crew is pretty funny, at times hilarious.

Hoping there will be more seasons.

Each person brings their own spark to the show. None of those stars shine as bright as Tiffany (New York) Pollard. She is in her delulu era and I'm hear for it. Challenge fans will recognize some of Johnny Bananas old tricks. Omarosa is as cunning and blunt just like she was on Celebrity Big Brother. The way each player is eliminates is hilarious. Joel McHale is the perfect host. The editing is pretty good. Only bad thing is the cliffhangers but I can get over that. Watching these people who have been on my television for twenty years separately interact with each other is a pleasure. The villains know their roles and came to play.

Love to hate these villains!!!! It's a game show of conniving people under one roof and it's perfect for reality lovers. You get to see their personalities at their worst and somewhat best LoL.

Also mixing from different shows makes me interested in checking those other shows also. You have Joel mchale as host-perfect to amp up the snark!! Your female voice Eva delivers too. This group knows to make fun of themselves and strategize their game.

Bring on more seasons please. Maybe see if Americas Next Top Model's villains and Housewives meanies are available. I'm sure they can find many reality baddies to do this show.

I was confused when I saw the low IMDb rating on account of how fantastic this show is. Being a huge big brother/survivor/general reality tv fan, it gives competitive gameplay and chaotic behavior from a group of large personalities. Omarosa delivers just like she did in the Big Brother house and Bananas and Fairplay are fun to see their minds work on the competition angle. I really have nothing bad to say about this show so far after 7 episodes in and I love how it never takes itself too seriously. I hope there's a season 2, and give it a shot and take it for what's it's worth. Entertaining, competitive gameplay.

This is the show I look most forward to viewing each week. The Houseguests are magic, Joel McHale as Host is perfectly snarky and even the production crew who pop in and out complete the narrative and nurture the tone of the show.

It's a fresh take on all of these redundant reality shows with manufactured drama. Somehow, despite their villain titles and behavior, there is something equally charming about each contestant. The show also is an interesting examination, whether intended or not, of the burden and, maybe in some cases, desperation of having and keeping the image up. I can't believe more people aren't watching.

I don't know who created the show but I want to personally thank them for this incredibly fresh spin on reality tv competition shows. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. I only wish there was a way they all could remain in the house together while competing. The house dynamics are so good that it is almost more painful to see a contestant go than a deserving player on The Amazing Race or Survivor. I didn't even know half of the contestants before watching but now I genuinely am fascinated by them all.

So there you have it. This is the show to watch. Here's to hoping for a reunion episode of House of Villains!
