Ok so the show wasn't spectacular but it wasn't horrible either. I wanted to waste time, we'll time is wasted but I also don't morn it's loss. It was fun to watch - keep in mind I did other stuff during it including reading; yes a real book.
The main thing I was hoping for that I feel was an opportunity missed, was that there was touting it as a murder mystery, the host was so dramatic and theatrical and they were in a castle! The murders could have been played up! Every one is woken the next morning to a maid screaming, they all go to the room and there is a dead body! They could be at breakfast and someone dies of poison. Everyone looks out the window and they watch as someone is murdered! And contests could be built around them like find the murder weapon, find the killers, etc. It would have added a but of fun to the theatrics and made it different from run of the mill reality show. Which it was, just called things murder and such. Famous death scenes could have been reenacted.
The location was also a reception hall for things like weddings, use that! Make a deal with someone to have their wedding there for free on a specific day and the contestants interact with guests or maybe act as wait staff.
SO MANY opportunities were missed. And it could be spun in a way to not make it creepy or possibly dangerous like buried alive. And OMG the round table took so long! I guess the point of it all was to let people watch others argue a lot.
I hope some one does read this and it gets added to make the show more fun and interesting - just acknowledge the anonymous review.
