Just A Much Of Losers


The aspect of this show that I really love is just how many losers end up as contestants. Occasionally someone with a good job and education ends up on the show but the vast majority seem to be people in their late 20's or early 30's who are busboys, cashiers, waiters, receptionists, etc. It is funny yet sad.

It seems this show consists mostly of people who peaked in high school.

Nothing wrong with that I suppose. Why give people who dont need the money so much all the chances.

This isn't Survivor, BB, or TAR. Nobody with a good job is gonna take time off to be on Cha$e.

So you are saying that doctors, engineers, and CEO's dont want to be seen running around an amusement park, while people in suits chase them? I would think wearing "invisibility glasses" on national TV, while making overtly sexist comments would be good for your career.

"I would've expected the 'geeks' to be computer programmers, or scientists of some kind. They weren't."

Exactly. There is a difference between being intelligent and just having no life, at all. They seem like the kind of people who have no friends and no life because they play Halo all day, not because they study or do research.

They reminded me of the weird people in my high school, who sat by themselves and looked at trading cards. They weren't smart, they were just very strange.

Little Larry & one of the other "geeks" put on some serious moves when evading the hunters.

And the dumb chicks lived up to their name. How many forgot that they were armed with a freezer or any of the weapons ? They were funny.

Yep. The brunette. She gets a pass. She did use her weapon.

My sister and I were cringing every time the contestants didn't use their weapons! I got so into it I was yelling at the TV. "USE THE DEFLECTOR! NO GLASSES! IDIOTS!"

I would love to be on this show and show these idiots how to really do it. I was grand master in hide and go seek back in the day. LOL!

Speaking of that, why don't they just hide?! They are all running around for the entire hour, usually out in the open. Just duck down behind something and wait it out. Hell, $30,000, i would hang out in a dumpster or garbage can for an hour.

The camera crew gives their positions away. So if I were a contestant. I'd not only hide from the hunters but try to ditch the camera crew as well.
