[jenrising]

Quote

A mix of 13 unlucky American and British campers navigate through twists and surprises while competing to expose the "killer" among them for a share of the $50,000 cash prize.

Will air on The CW.

I saw the British version of this a year or two ago, then nothing...glad to see it back in some fashion, it was silly fun.

I remember it as airing where I live last summer, and it was so damn goofy and exactly what I needed at that point in the pandemic. If I had guilty pleasures (it is impossible to embarrass me over what I watch or read or, really, over most other things), this would top my list.

I knew it had aired in the UK (I was so grateful for older content from other countries during lockdown) and I resisted spoiling myself somehow, which I rarely do. That must have been especially fun around Halloween, since it's...I can't use the word campy when camp is in the title, but that's what it was, imo.

Season 2 premieres October 10th.

I get the hunch that someone on Season 2 is faking their non English accent. I have absolutely no proof, but I wanna go out on a limb. 

Happy to see Maura from The Bridge back on tv, she's hilarious and her reactions cannot be beat. Gabriel seems to be the token tool, but I assume he'll be killed by the end of the season. 

Basil brought nothing, so wasn't too sad at his death. A moment of silence for Sean, lolz.

Yes, I absolutely agree! I would go as far to say more than one person. In the short interviews at the beginning, I at first couldn't tell if some people had English or American accents and sometimes they seemed pretty intertwined. Interesting!

Is anyone watching this? It is so bad that it is hilarious. 

[jewel21]

Yup. They had already aired the first few episodes months ago on The CW and then pulled it. It's nice that we're finally getting the episodes, but I hate that I have to re-watch the first few all over again, heh. 

[LakeGal]

I'm watching.  I watched the first season and enjoyed it.  I am along for the ride.  I can't stand Gabriel.  I hope he leaves before too long.  

[LakeGal]

One of the females finally got killed off.  There are too many females for me to remember.  I wonder if the killer this season is a female.  The guys are annoying.  

[jewel21]

I thought it was so dumb they all voted Lexxi off when Clyde is acting so fishy. 

[tvfanatic13]

And why did they add someone new? That was odd. 

I just chuckle at how Bobby commits to his role.

[jewel21]

Huh, I was sure Clyde was one of the killers. He and Gabe are just so sketchy. 

[LakeGal]

I was happy to see Clyde and Gabe broke up.  I don't even care if one of them is the killer or not.  They had a strong alliance that would target others to protect themselves.  It was indeed sketchy.  Gabe might be the killer.  But it could be SJ or one of the females.  Last season the killer was an alpha male.  Would they pick the same type two seasons in a row?  For that reason it might not be Gabe.  Jayden (or whatever her name is) has me suspicious since she seems over the top at times and uses her size to screw up comps for money.  She seems to be everyone's buddy.  I don't understand bringing in new players after the first episode.  Are we suppose to believe they would have the killer only show up later?  That would not be fair.

[jewel21]

Is it wrong of me to be so amused by the fact that Gabe is miserable? 

Any thoughts on who the killer is? I'm hoping it's not Bella. I like her for some reason. I think it might actually be Jayden. 

I guess we'll find out next week.

[LakeGal]

If Bella was the killer I would think she would have killed off Gabe by now.  He has been mean and cruel to her since early on.  

[jewel21]

That's a very good point. You think he would have realized that by now rather than trying to throw her under the bus. 

Jayden always has that sweet demeanor but she let it slip at one point when the blood spilled on her and she threw the stick down in anger and swore. Then she seemed to realize what she did and the sweet mask was back in place. It definitely made me pause. 

[LakeGal]

I guess her name is Jaydah.  I finally noticed this time.  It is interesting that Syrra or whatever her name was had just started to suspect Jaydah and now she is killed off.  Hmmm...?

[LakeGal]

I am glad they guessed the killer correctly.  They all seemed to finally come to the right conclusion after comparing notes.  We had started to suspect the right person too.  That proves she was not as good an actress as she thought she was.  

[jewel21]

I am also glad the camp guessed correctly and won. 

As I mentioned above, Jaydah only got on my radar when she let her mask slip while performing in the blood bucket challenge. That was my ah-hah moment and stuck with me. I'm honestly surprised none of the other players brought it up or found it strange or worth remembering. Furthermore, she admitted she was a model, and it's not unheard of to have a model maybe want to branch into acting and take some classes. 

Overall, she played a very good game.
