The Trust: A Game of Greed

I agree with the other reviews here. The show provides an interesting concept BUT it is completely ruined by the most horrible and annoying contestants. I watched until episode 5-6 then just dropped it. Some of the contestants were just shady, mean and have horrible personalities which ultimately ruined a promising show. Some are whiney. The women here are cringe-worthy. The producers should have tried to find better contestants with more interesting personalities - not like these people who are catty and self-deprecating. I hate some just cliched up and bully other contestants. Most of them don't deserve the monty at all. Not recommend to watch!

If you like other reality shows such as The Traitors, Survivor, The Mole...etc then you may like this show a bit, but be warned the cast isn't that great. The whole premise of this show is that everyone is a winner, and whomever gets to the end gets to split a $250,000 prize. The catch though is that if you chose to vote someone out that means that everyone's cut of the prize goes up due to there now being less people. Also There are things that happen along the way in which the cast can raise the total amount of money or keep more for themselves.

So you're thinking to yourself that sounds like it could make for a great show, but sadly you would be wrong and it all has to do with the cast. Most of the men in the cast act like they have a moral high ground and want to just go to the end with everyone. While most of the women want to get people out so they get a bigger cut of the money. Also none of them are all that interesting character wise. At no point did I ever find myself rooting for anyone. So if you like reality TV shows and you are really really bored you could check this one out, but don't expect anything great out of it whatsoever.

I have to hand it to the producers of this show: they have managed to assemble one of the most vile, hateful, and generally unlikable group of people I could imagine. While the idea of the show is actually very interesting, the choice of contestants is stunning for its level of overt racism, dishonesty, manipulativeness, and just general rottenness. While some of these folks might be ok people outside of this pressure cooker environment, others should never be allowed anywhere near people or animals without a watchful guard present. Tolu in particular is a prime example of the absolute worst of humanity. If that's your kind of thing, you'll love this show.

What even is this? If this is all genuine and not a horrible script, then many of the contestants are just miserable, reactionary people. The premise is great and interesting, but many of the contestants' actions are nonsensical and annoying.

I don't know if it's edited weirdly or what, but I just don't understand all the rage and "fierce" dialogues in the second episode.

At this point, if someone coughs the wrong way, a certain group of high school bully is going to turn that into a court case, invoke a history lesson on how a cough destroyed Rome, and bully the person who coughed into the ocean.

It's a reality show, so I don't expect much, but I felt like this broke my suspension of disbelief a lot.

I thought the idea was intriguing, but something went very very wrong in the casting, specifically with the women. The one woman I thought was a nutter with the non-binary plant, ended up being the most sane of the lot. The rest of the women are truly some of the most vile, entitled, victims I have ever seen. The african-american woman with the short hair is actually from Nigeria as a child. She gets angry that people refer to her as being African, but she literally wears ear rings and necklaces in the shape of African, not Nigeria. The other young woman who looks a little hispanic, is a perfect example of the entitled 20 somethings running around. On top of being perpetually in need of validation. None of these women have any sense of honor to them, it's disgusting to watch them.

I only made it through 2 episodes, I don't know if I can watch more. These people suck.
