In this reality series, strangers compete to share a quarter of a million dollars. Will they split it evenly--or cut each other out to raise their take?
Hello, my dear binge-watchers, couch potatoes, and those pretending to have a life but secretly waiting for my next post – Dan here! Today, I'm diving into the latest guilty pleasure on Netflix, "The Trust: A Game of Greed." Buckle up; it's a wild ride.
The Stars of the show
Let's start with the stars – but don't get too attached. Remember, they're just like us, only greedier, more backstabbing, and with better makeup artists. The show throws a bunch of strangers into a pit of money – a quarter of a million dollars, to be exact. The goal? To either split it evenly or stab each other in the back financially. It's like Thanksgiving dinner with my family but with more money and less turkey.
What Tickled My Fancy
I've got to say, the carnage of reality TV makes my life seem like a Disney movie. Garbage TV? Hard to resist. It’s like eating a whole tub of ice cream; you know it’s bad for you, but oh, it feels so good. Watching these contestants is like observing a zoo where the animals are just the worst of humanity – and they're not even behind bars!
It’s like a train wreck, a dumpster fire, and a car crash all rolled into one. You just can't look away, no matter how much you want to.
What Made Me Cringe
Ah, the cringe factor of "The Trust: A Game of Greed." is like attending a drama class where everyone's vying for the lead role in a tragedy.
First off, the victimhood Olympics. Each contestant has a story that's sadder than a country song. We're talking tales of woe that could make a statue weep. But here's the catch – while their stories tug at your heartstrings, their actions make you question their sincerity.
The Hollywood wokeness in this show? Oh, it's like being in a lecture hall where the professor thinks every sentence should be a life lesson. You can't escape it. It's in every scene, every dialogue – "I get it, Hollywood, you're woke. Now, can we get back to the backstabbing, please?"
Now, let’s chat about Tolu and Winnie. These two are like the king and queen of a chessboard where every move is a plot twist...at least for them. They believe they deserve the money more passionately than anyone else and are not afraid to tell you to your face. Their strategies would make a Bond villain take notes. Tolu’s maneuvers are slicker than an oil spill, and Winnie, oh Winnie, her game face could freeze lava.
It’s a circus of manipulation, and these two are the ringmasters. Watching them is like observing a masterclass in how to be cunningly charming yet alarmingly ruthless. Their sense of entitlement is so thick, you could cut it with a knife – a knife they'd probably steal to backstab their allies.
Ranking and Final Thoughts
So, where do I land on "The Trust: A Game of Greed"? I'm slapping a 6.9/10 on this rollercoaster of regret and riches. It's the TV equivalent of junk food – terrible for you, but oh-so-satisfying. You'll laugh, you'll cringe, and you'll definitely question your life choices – but you won't stop watching.
