I'm so into this show. I love it.

The vampire story left some solid groundwork but didn't go as far as I thought it would. The twists and suspense could have been more but I like how some of these are super open ended and people could come back or that there's an even greater mystery to solve. Adding in a hard time deadline really helped light a fire under the cast to get shit done.

The second ep the fact that the second team destroyed them the whole episode and then ultimately lost was really funny. I love that they forged something together.

I'm so mixed about this show. The set-up isn't really for me - but I do love the ~games~ they play. The two detective teams versus each other was my favorite episode so far. It felt non-scripted enough but still following a good plot.

Love this show! Episodes 5 and 6 were the best yet for me. I liked the location they used in ep 5, and poor Park Hae Jin, the production team made him suffer a bit too with the pots. It was cool to see how smart the other team was in ep 6, but the main cast is definitely more charming and entertaining.

I love the chemistry of the cast, they vibe so well even in different sub-groups. For me Sehun has been the least entertaining member of the team because he's so quiet, but he seems to be coming out of his shell more in these latest eps especially in ep 6. Competitive slightly evil Sehun seems to be the best variety Sehun. And Park Min Young is such an ace, almost single-handedly dragging her team to victory. I remember one of her interviews during their press day, she said something like at the start of filming she was so nervous because she wasn't used to not having a script, but look at her now.

I hope we get a second season, but there doesn't seem to be enough buzz about the show despite all the promotion they did at the start. :(

I know its a variety show rather than a game show like crime scene, but still kinda irks me that they always missing a hint for the sake of the plot like kim shinyoung's word on ep 5. But yeah its a plot afterall.

That being said i love ep 6 because theres a lot of game so theres no room for too much script and Peppertones as always deliver! Meanwhile the busted team is absolutely cant function without minyoung loool
