The opening credits spoil the show.


During the intro, after the announcer introduces Allen, there's a clip of him sitting next to Chase saying that whoever's in the room should enjoy one more night where they're friends.

This gives away that the show makes it to the end despite all the things Chase suspects, and it suggests that Chase, Allen, and someone else are the final 3.

It shouldn't really be that much of a surprise. Obviously if the show was busted they wouldn't have aired it. Also, i pretty much figured that Allen would make it to the final three since he is "the buddy" they want to keep him there so Chase has a "friend"

Goodness look at my wrist, I need to go

Agreed. It's not like Joe Schmo 2, where if somebody figured it out early, they could bring someone else in and still have one Schmo on-board. If he were to figure out the whole thing, then that's it.

reply

I think they'd still air it if he figured it out before the end. They invested a lot of money in the production I'm sure, there's no reason they can't have a show that just ends if/when he figures it out.

reply

Well, that's what I mean-- if he figured it out, then that is the end. The show doesn't continue past that point, not like on Joe Schmo 2 where they just replaced Ingrid and continued.

Which is why I always fast-forward through the credits on shows like this. They give away too much about the whole season (not just the next episode) and they go for waaaaay too long

No! I am the one who knocks!

I thought that Allen said that in the very first episode. He was referring to all of them enjoying being "friends" for one last night before the bounty competion started the next day and they would then be out to get each other voted out.

I agree, I am pretty sure that was from the first episode...
