Totally changed my mind about reality tv - Best of them all by far !

I kinda liked the US version but I dunno, still unimpressed by the relationships in the end... But the french oh my oh my they love DRAMA, and it was a lot of fun watching !

Unlike another review I absolutly loved #teamwinners#triomagique :
  • Elea the sweetheart decided on the very first hours of the very first day to blindly trust two people, radiated sincerity and stuck with it the whole time <3
  • Romain was passionate, always true when it mattered... and let's admit the Romain/Valeria couple was the most wonderful thing to see from beginning to end !
  • Valeria the strategic one chose the hardest path when he defended Elea against the majority, and didn't betray them when he could have : until the end, honey and bff on Top 2


Weather update : These three appears to be bounded for life since the show ended.. (+ their worst "ennemies" Cedric and Ines!!!) TRUE FRIENDSHIP born from this.

Never ever would i have believed it from reality tv or social media, BRAVO my mind is changed about both :)

It shouldn't be this good #sorrynotsorry

I'm not particularly keen on reality TV but I've now watched every version of The Circle from around the world - the 2 seasons of the original UK show (ages ago), and, more recently the US, Brazil and French editions.

To be honest, I can't talk about the UK ones because I watched them so long ago that all I really remember is that they were unexpectedly brilliant, but can't remember enough details to really compare them to the other versions.

I just finished this French version and, honestly, it was just brilliant. Definitely my favourite of the non-UK ones. Every episode had something, and that finale had me in actual hysterics. Such vivid characters, lots of scheming and tactics, and I found that most episodes I changed my mind about who I wanted to win or leave the show.

Ultimately, it was good to see that, for the most part, all the players seemed to be nice people - perhaps not always in the game, but certainly outside it. It's always great to see the online personas and feuds disappear so quickly once the real players have been revealed, and generally the players can appreciate each other and their respective game plans, etc.

Basically I needed to rant about this show because no one I know has watched it and it was so good I needed to vent!

PS did you know that ALL versions of The Circle are filmed in the location of the original Circle UK - in the same block of flats (apartments) in Manchester, England? #nowyouknow

Much better than expected

I am usually not a fan of shows like these, but decided to give it a try after watching the American version.I laughed so much during the last episode and I honestly didn't expect for it to be better than the American version.If you wanna watch something that will make you feel giddy, without being too engaged and having to follow the heavy plot, than you should give this a try.

Super entertaining, better than the original

Especially Nelia made it super fun to watch, although I did get annoyed that Gary was eliminated to harshly and team winner was just a pain.

Best Circle of All!
RainbowLynx3 October 2020
I really like that version of all Circles! Many unpredictable turns, great characters, no fake love, great Finale episode. Much better than US version, real emotions and interesting competitions. I really miss that in final episode in grand room there were not enough time to see reactions from eliminated players when final 5 was revealed. I sooooo wanted to see them interacting with each other.

DON'T BOTHER!!!!!!!!
sloppybeansreview12 April 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Out of The Circle and the Circle Brazil, this one is the worst. The beginning is really good and had good twists. They were all playing fairly until they formed team winner. this included Elea, Valeria, Romain, and Virginie at the end. All of these people played unfairly, I get its a game and they were just trying to win. I thought it was very rude of them to treat the other players like that who could have used the money more.

SPOILERS

It really started to get bad when Gary left. That part was the saddest because he just wanted to win the money and be friends with people then he was blocked by the lies from team winner. The people that were blocked deserve better. On the other hand, all the girls or "girls" were rude (at the end). For example, when "Nelia" uploaded a picture of herself in a bikini no one like it. The girls didn't even like it when girls are supposed to support girls. Also, they said " What is Nelia doing." and others like "she's pushing too hard." I find this to be so annoying because girls constantly get called mean things for the way they look. Also, Virginie got support on her bikini pic and a lot of people liked it but no one likes "Nelia's." It was very hypocritical and I hated it. In the end, Romain won. I don't agree with this because I don't like him he treated everyone as objects to win. Furthermore, you will get to a point in the show were everyone that's blocked deserved the money more than Romain. If you want to watch this show be aware of how annoyed you will be and frustrated. In my opinion, skip watching the show. Watch Dark on Netflix it's better.

The best season of The Circle Universe
dhiren_superstar21 April 2021

I absolutely loved 'The Circle: France'. The US and Brazil version are entertaining but a bit lackluster. However, the France version is high on drama. I loved how Cedric manipulated so many against Elea, and how Elea, who had no chance of surviving, reached to the finale. She was definitely my favorite! Also, unlike other seasons, some of the wild card entries in the French version were pretty wild. If you liked the US or the Brazil version, you're going to love this one!

I'm addicted
armidrg-5226730 April 2020

I've seen the three circles available on Netflix, these shows are so addictive. Since it is streaming they can afford to end in cliffhanger, meaning not telling us who is blocked, who arrived, who is gonna be visted. On traditional TV broadcasting this kind of cliffhanger would be imposible, I mean you see a reality once a week only to not knowwho is out. This is why this show is so addictive.

SPOILER What I like the most and all of the circles must have is the final eight ratings to be considered for the finale, not just the final 5. That was massive. Elea got into an unnecessary fight with Valerie because she (Elea) was a so called influencer, so she felt powerful, yes she blocked Valerie, but lost in the end to Romain because of Valerie low ratings.

This adds fairness, it's not only your allies or team being on the finale what counts but also the enemies you left behind and blocked that affects you in the end. By allowing the final eight to rate the finalist the true most popular wins, not the "strategic" one.
