I've finally finished watching the most recent season of one of my current favourite variety shows. This season is still overall rather nice, despite the fact that I was a little let down in some areas.

Story - When it comes to the narrative and the plot, this variety show is the go-to choice. It's truly amazing how inventive the crew is with their ideas. Each story offered something unique. Time travel, the metaverse, a zombie prison, entering a terrorist/serial killer's subconscious, disarming bombs, and mind control/hypnosis.  Don't all those descriptions seem enticing?

Acting - This season's cast of actors and actresses is excellent. The biggest stand-out would be the Devil in the Crazy House episode. Dude legit showed up for about 5 minutes but stole the show because of his amazing acting. Him just standing there is intimidating enough LOL.

Cast - I know some people complain about how some members aren't pulling enough weight, but I feel like the cast is a perfect balance. If all of them are geniuses, it's very likely that episodes won't be as fun as the current ones since they'll probably solve the puzzles really easily. It works vice-versa as well - only funny people would be frustrating at times since they won't get anything done. Honestly such great casting by the staff.

Music - Every single music/soundtrack fits in with the concept of the specific episode. Intense music when the scene is intense, eerie music when the scene is creepy, etc. The music here makes you really immersed in the story.

Rewatch Value - This one was the hardest to rate. While all the episodes are pretty fun to watch for the first time, it's unlikely that I'll go back to rewatch. The other seasons had better rewatchable episodes.

The staff put so much effort and time into this series. Please send them some love <3
