Chain Reaction (2022)

An interesting concept

How this show works: two people of opposite sex are chained together (the chain is long 1,5 m and it is attached to the wrist of each person) for a specific time each day. They cannot break the chain until they receive a signal from the production. So this forces them to do everything together, from walk to cook, to sleep, to go to the bathroom (in this case the person who goes into the bathroom leave the chain on the door knob and the other has to wait for them while being attached to the door).

It not a show full of dates and I want to remark this point because I saw a lot of people dropped for this reason. Also one episode is only 60 minutes and with 8 episodes there's not a lot to show. I would honestly prefer longer or more episodes and more dates but overall I enjoyed watching it. It's on the lighter side, definitely not a rollercoaster in term of emotions, but it's good if you just finished an heavier show that made you cry. It can be improved for sure with more activities and screentime because the idea of the chain is really interesting.

The panel is not too present but ok, I think most of the time they miss the point
