The first episode is always a little confusing as there are so many teams and it is so fast paced. I have had trouble getting people into the show because of that in the past.

However, that quick pace is the reason I watch. It feels alive and the producers are famous for their lightning fast cuts from team to team to team. The cinematography is so breathtaking that it can make you dizzy and the contestants are usually the creme de la reality crop.

I also have really high expectations!
