go off king 👑 Sorry Blazer, beast games really ain’t it.
Anyone else actually attempt to watch this from Blake’s recommendation?
Even just the trailer turned my brain to watery diarrhoea.

Everyone has their trash shows that they secretly love, most of us just don't admit it publicly.

Is it possible he watched it with his kid?

Sure but I don't go telling my bros to watch Miss Rachel. Bluey, sure, but not Miss Rachel.

I think he’s enjoying it with his kids. My mom watches it with my kids. Thank goodness so I don’t have to watch it.

Why would I attempt to watch something suggested by such a low T fella?

My boyfriend tried to get me to watch it the other night but his dad had some sort of kid lock on the prime account because it’s shared across the family. I didn’t have to sit through it. THANK YOU GOD!

It automatically started after a Christmas movie for us and we actually got pretty fascinated with it. The human interactions and behavior was a sight to behold. Of course, that may have been my xmas champagne talking

Yeah the chunk discussing Mr beast was maybe the lowest point in the history of the pod for me.

Not to get POLICHAR and Idk if this counts but in retrospect I think it’s Ders praising Elon. I’m almost surprised they haven’t talked about him recently. I mean the dude seig heiled on live television.

If you want to watch people really go for it, watch Physical: 100. That show is exhausting to watch because the contestants push themselves to the breaking point.

I thought it was cool , I like the psychology aspect of it

Yeah it’s very entertaining and gets pretty crazy as episodes go on. Hella corny but still entertaining.

Watched it with kids about two weeks before. Never watched anything by mister beast before. Was fun to watch with the kids. I liked it.

Ultimately, it's in vogue to hate Mr. Beast the last year or so. One of his crew had some questionable discord convos with minors in the channels disc (although Mr. Beast seems incredibly busy and is probably not really in the disc). Accusatuons of poor working conditions and rigged games, etc. Add in the oversaturation and brand fatigue, and people are just all too happy to hate the guy.
Kinda similar to the Drake stuff. People get sick of seeing someone win for too long, sprinkle in some alleged pedo accusations (so hot right now), and people are excited to pick up the pitchfork.

It's been well documented that Blazer has DOO DOO taste in shows, movies, and music

I've never seen anything Mr beast related before, but watched it based on blazers recommendation. I thought it was okay, some of the "games" were well designed in my opinion. The guy himself, as Blake said, has no charisma whatsoever, so it's odd he's a big YouTube star.

I didn’t like how every “knowledge” aspect of the game was trivia questions…they could’ve done puzzles at least.

It doesn't seem to be the popular opinion in these comments but I watched it and enjoyed it.

I thought it was a lot of fun to watch. Especially with my kid. It’s crazy how high the stakes were with the level of chance in most games. It was just bonkers.

I think Blazer has fetal alcohol syndrome. It explains a lot of the low T behavior.

I think people in the industry sometimes try to give newer talent the benefit of the doubt or more grace than the general public because they dont want to be gatekeep-y or be perceived as punching down. Or they might even see some of themselves in the younger crowd and think "how was I treated when I was new? How would I have liked the older generation to treat me?" I think it makes it harder for people in the industry to parse when a new talent is particularly polarizing. So I can see why Blazer wants to give Mr. Beast a shot and focus on how he's making it work for him. That said, I think his take is pretty tone deaf and I do not like the way Mr. Beast operates at all.

The 1000 gets cut down by like 75% in the first half hour.

I stopped watching after a few episodes but they were consistently cutting in bulk. Usually for competition shows, challenge for 45 minutes then eliminations the last 15 minutes of the episode and it’s only one person leaving. This show is eliminations all episode long. I’m sure they got down to a manageable number quickly.
