    Huge fun and - if at all possible - almost as nerve-wracking as "Idol."

    There is one fantastic thing about this show. It's only a half-hour.

    It's an intriguing idea for a reality show, and it more or less survives Fox's cheesy presentation.

    It's tough to get an audience to care for any of the players in a show that's just 30 minutes long.

    The show makes Survivor look like a utopia. [17 Apr 2006, p.43]

    I'll give "Unan1mous" this: At least it's more efficient than some reality shows, wasting only a half-hour of a viewer's time. But that's still 30 minutes you don't have to spend wallowing in this muck.

    Unan1mous, the worst new series this season, accomplishes the unthinkable: It makes Big Brother look respectable.

    It feels far closer to genre self-parody than it does the genuine article: wildly overproduced and characteristically overbearing, with a concept that plays as utterly insipid.

    Makes a solid bid to win the Most Unpleasant Reality Show of All Time award.

    Do not be suckered into watching Fox's torturous new game show "Unan1mous," which in a half-hour crams in several of the worst reality show gimmicks and crosses the border of tastelessness... all while remaining flat-out dull.

    Ok, so mabey it wasn't the best show in the world, I admit it. I just watched it because I know one of the cast members very well.
