Estate of Survival

So many questions. 1. Who at Amazon allowed this atrocity to get through production? 2. Go back to #1. I stopped watching after a few episodes where a contestant starts doing an actual infomercial for a lg product. What on earth? Is this real? It's slow. The storyline is very very weak and all about marketing products for LG Electronics it seems. I am so Shocked this is a real show on Amazon prime. Contestants are vying for different contests to Fill their house which is empty mainly with appliances and electronics from lg. Whenever they actually win one, they then spend time talking about the products. Bizzaro land.

I'd give this show a 7 out of 10. Personally a huge fan of unscripted reality and enjoyed the uniqueness of this concept! Sort of a survivor meets Big Brother so If you enjoyed either of those, you'll probably enjoy this one!

I particularly found the challenges in the show extremely entertaining to watch as the contestants really gave it there all to make it through! My favorite contestant was Howard hahaha this guy definitely steals this show! Big Thumbs up!

I'd definitely watch another season of this - maybe next time they can have even more contestants and even have them stay in the house for longer?! Anyway / worth the watch for sure!

My children watched the GI Joe cartoons 30 years ago, and it was readily apparent that the show was nothing more than a 30-minute commercial for GI Joe toys.

The LG Corporation has managed to extend this concept with a reality show with a far lower entertainment value. I watched three episodes and am still unable to determine whether the contestants are AI-generated, extremely wooden actors, or actual people incapable of expressing their emotions. I can't bear to watch any more to make a final determination.

The premise is simple, put a bunch of people in a house with very few creature comforts and periodically a) have them compete for prizes - fabulous LG appliances, and b) have them vote off one member of the house. The twist, and I admit I though this was interesting, is that the person "voted off" doesn't actually leave. They are still in the house, participipating in conversations and generally "living the dream" as the couch-sitting losers they all appear to be.

There's zero drama, zero suspense, and no reason to make a connection with any of these people. The contestants lack charisma and chemistry and a few appear incapable of functioning in the real world. We bailed a few minutes into the third episode.

I'm sure LG executives thought that this ad campagn would boost sales, but their executives screen participants carefully to avoid bringing anyone controversial or even mildly interesting into the setting to avoid any whiff of negative PR. What they left us with is a series of very bland 30-minute doses of failure.

I have to admit, I did enjoy watching this show! The contestants all were very charismatic and the level of dynamics and drama between them really sucked me in early on in the episodes. The idea of showing up to a house with literally no furniture is actually appealing to me, but I guess for others, no so much!! Light entertainment and definitely compares well to other competition style shows! I would recommend starting this show with no preconceived notions of what it needs to be! A clever move by LG as well in terms of unique marketing. I'll be interested to see what other brands follow in their foot steps.

The best thing that could happen for this show, would be for someone to call a S. W. A. T. Raid in on multiple occasions.

Several contestants are blatantly bad people, while others are so naive they literally trust pathological liars all the time, even after the liars have burned these naive contestants several times.

The most interesting thing I found was the body language of one contestant who I'd guess either did hook up with another contestant (or 2) or seriously wanted to.

Several contestants listed their apparent occupations, which I found hard to believe they would actually be successful at their proclaimed professions.

I for one, would not like to see a therapist who had very little if any empathy.
