Running Man Thailand (2026)

Chaotic fun, with humour and character.

This was a lot of fun and the participants all worked super well together. I'm impressed and happy that they showed their vulnerabilities and nerves as well as their strengths. Running Man Thailand has an air of healthy competition and friendship. The games are tough but everyone manages to do them. You can actually see them get tired the more times they receive punishment etc. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time!! The whole thing feels very authentic and each contestant contributes to the experience. Its a must watch! ps loving the bond between Tay and Jeff 🎉

อย่าหยุดสู้! -- Never Stop Fighting!

I usually only watch variety shows when I'm feeling really, really sick. So, when I clicked start on the first episode of "Running Man Thailand" in late February, I didn't expect to get hooked on the show and to wait impatiently for the next episode to air each week.

Somehow, the regular hosts, their guests and the technical crew made this show highly addictive. There's never a dull moment, even if some episodes scratch the two hour mark.
Granted, not every game met the mark (I think the game inventors severely underestimated the difficulty of the Pattaya Beach games), and I didn't think the "couples' episode" (ep 5), was the best of ideas -- but overall, the games were well-designed, and made so that every participant could shine at least once.
Episodes were also edited on point for the most part; the editors built tension incredibly well and I think they found the best scenes to tell a good story for each game. The amount of material must have been huge, so I really think this is impressive work.

The regular hosts were delightful! I love how competetive all of them were -- nobody backed down, even when exhausted or cornered. NuNew was a wonderful surprise. I also liked how they grew over the course of the season -- from people who knew each other in passing as professionals in the same industry to team members (or opponents) who know each other's strengths and weaknesses.
However, even with all of these great aspects, there's one thing that makes this show stand out: The hosts (and guests) all genuinely seem to like each other. I love how happy they are when an opponent does something extraordinary; I love how they step back after a fight and check if the other is okay. There never seems to be even a second of animosity between any of them.
Of course, one never knows how much exactly is scripted in shows like these but I think there is some genuine fondness among the participants.

Overall, I enjoyed almost every minute of "Running Man Thailand". I really hope the producers will consider a second season.

For those who consider watching just one episode for their favourites -- you can, of course, and it's likely you will enjoy it. But I really recommend watching all ten episodes for the development of the dynamics between the regulars.
