Slightly concerned by the wiman whonsaid "I'm a nuclear engineer. My job involves a lot of problem solving."
I would prefer it if that were a job that didn't encounter problems at all.
I don't know who she works for, but as a nuclear engineer myself, problem solving is what its all about.I would prefer it if that were a job that didn't encounter problems at all.
Doesn't mean solving how to prevent melt down
Not too sure about this yet...
I don't really want to play the game along with the contestants, especially with all the red herrings thrown in. Would much prefer to know where they are so I can laugh at their ineptitude as they attempt to piece it all together, lol.
Will give it a bit more time, but it isn't a patch on The Traitors.

Only one episode in but it already feels too contrived and convoluted. Loads of clues but no idea if your answer(s) were correct. I got the Alsace / Alsation connection but still ended up leaning towards Switzerland. Unbelievable someone jumps ship after one day - maybe the idea of weeks on a bus didn’t appeal. I wonder what shower facilities they have on that bus for 10 players.

The whole thing seems incredibly confused. Red herrings? Everything seemed to be pointing to Vienna. Arnold was one of the name tags in the airport for instance, but loads of other clues too. Now apparently red herrings.I don't really want to play the game along with the contestants, especially with all the red herrings thrown in.

So where does that leave the deductive process? Anything is either a clue OR a red herring. WTF?
I’ll give it one more go but I’m not hopeful.

I enjoyed it but I wouldn't want to be a contestant - the 'clues' were pretty obscure.
We were convinced they were in Switzerland
When the woman guessed Paris, we laughed and said "no chance"..............shows what we know!
What did the red V on the flowers clue (vs the tulips for Amsterdam)? Even if they guessed that clue location they drove many hours before the final destination so could have been anywhere in that radius?We were convinced they were in Switzerland

Yes, we managed to nail Alsace pretty early on but then they drove 360-odd km and there were precious few (no?) clues actually identifying Paris. Having said that we did predict Paris but in an unsatisfyingly random way.Gassing Station | TV, Film, Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
