There are two major problems with this British version of Fear Factor: 1) the host's constant insipid, obvious comments (if I hear "What's going through your head?" one more freaking time....), 2) the flawed format that often allows the weakest team to win by having only their strongest member compete in the crucial final stunt! (which effectively turns the competition individual, which would be fine, except it's supposedly all about "team effort"). So the show is definitely inferior to the American version, but it's still enjoyable for the Fear Factor fanatic (like me) who has watched every American episode and just can't get enough. ** out of 4.
