Viewers’ Reviews
Unfortunately, according to IMDb resource, the viewers aren’t satisfied with the project. They don’t think it’s funny when someone does things that he’s told to do, the jokes don’t seem funny and rarely make you laugh. When people get to know that they’ve been filmed on a hidden camera, they feel even more confused than before. Besides, the hostess was called arrogant and annoying by most of the viewers. That’s why the plans for the future of this reality are quite vague.
