The idea for this show is basically a mashup of shows that already exist, particularly Survivor, the Challenge, and Million Dollar Island. It's a solid idea but it is terribly executed. The competitive portion of the game ultimately comes down to a physical battle to hold onto an item. Fight classes exist in professional fighting for a reason. You have two or three physically dominant contestants throwing around the other contestants like rag dolls. There's absolutely no real competition whatsoever. You know who's going to win before the match even takes place, which makes the whole 'challenge' element of the game utterly pointless. I'm honestly surprised people weren't seriously hurt. You have a jacked male and female team battling out of shape male/female teams who are twice their age. The contestants all should have been within the same range of fitness and competitiveness. CW, watch the Challenge and take notes. You had a great opportunity to create something of your own and you completely missed the mark.
