Cool concept, horrible execution
When I first started this show, I was in love. I loved the idea of 12 sets of twins competing together in pairs. I loved how those twins would be split up for the entirety of the competition by living in two separate houses and playing in competitions on either side of a massive wall. I even loved that the grand prize was made $222,222.22 to fit in with the theme of the show. However once the show kicked off, it imploded on itself due to its lack of structure, repetitive and boring competitions, and pointless drama and fights. It was difficult to get invested in the show when it didn't enforce its own rules, almost letting the contestants do whatever they wanted to with minimal consequences. The format of the show also didn't allow for much strategy, which resulted in nearly every fight being completely pointless and irrelevant in the scope of the show. As a result, you could cut out many of the fights from each episode and it wouldn't affect the overall plot of the show. On the other hand, casting did a great job. There was a lot of variety not only in personalities among the contestants, but also in how close each pair was. Unfortunately the cast was wasted on this garbage heap of a show.score 2/10
