Good idea, terrible execution.
1. Difficult to watch and keep track of what is actually happening. Editing is very fast paced, no shot lasts more than a couple of seconds, which makes watching very stressful. The competitors are going to very cool locations, but the editing has completely ruined enjoying the show.2. When competitions are happening it is difficult to follow the competitors and root for someone, which completely takes away from the pleasure of watching any form of "challenge". I have no idea, how much time has passed, how far someone is from another competitor etc. This could be a "making-of" show of the competition, not the actual footage. In the end you just want to turn the show off, because as a viewer I have no idea what is going on from a competitive standpoint.
3. Basically because the competitive element is unwatchable, a viewer is just left with watching the personal sob stories of some completely random people.
4. The idea in itself is very cool and could be executed better with more focus on the competition with maybe a stopwatch and less with some completely irrelevant interviews from contestants.
5. Beautiful locations and background shots.
Unfortunately a waste of time, due to errors made in the focus on irrelevant things.
score 5/10
