Battle of the Fittest Couples

Really liked this. If you like "The Challenge " on MTV you will like this. Also like that all of the episodes were uploaded at one time so this could be watched all the way through the end.

I originally wrote a great review for this series as I was part way into it. I couldn't understand the low reviews. But then I got to The Shay, Tayla & Heather Show. Idk what the producers were thinking allowing these bullies to be the star of the show. That should have been edited out. I can see why some of it would be in there to lead up to Christie and Josh volunteering to wipe the floor with one couple. But then it actually gets worse. This aspect of the series totally destroys what started out as a promising show. Boo. I'm giving it a very charitable 4 stars for the initial episodes and the fun premise. I'm pissed that I wasted my time hoping the producers would try to turn it back around.

"Battle Of The Fittest Couples" is the perfect show to watch and relax after a long day; easy on the eyes (for both sexes), not too taxing on the brain. At the same time, there is a social and strategic factor to it that lifts it to a higher plane than a simple physical-competition show. There are likable heroes to root for and splendid villains to root against. As for the physical challenges, they are no joke - at least three people need to get briefly hospitalized after pushing themselves too far. The winners may not be satisfying, but they are undeniably deserving. I'd watch a 2nd season for sure. *** out of 4.

I've seen far worse do far better. Not that predictable and the challenges thus far are ok.

Worst show ever what the heck! Bad challenges. And so predictable omg
