As entertaining as the high stakes and real human interaction is, "Can't pay?" just seems to portray the ugly side of capitalism. Humans are complicated, the show does a good job of capturing this from a live-action stand point, but watching peoples lives in their darkest moments with camera's all over them becomes more and more nauseating as the show goes on.
The premise alone is toxic. You find yourself rooting for the High Court Enforcement as show does well at conveying the agents point of view, but again having ones face plastered everywhere for entertainment (numerous law suits in the UK as a result!) let alone capitalizing on others suffering makes for a naturally controversial show. Some people like this, but the nature of the premise defeats any merit a show like this can have.
Worth watching if you either enjoy watching the suffering of others publicly or want some reflection into the ugliest facets of society.
