    We know the body convulsing on the floor of the grand foyer isn't really being electrocuted. And yet we get sucked into the suspense and the gore as the players express fear, anxiety and tearful protests against being the next to die. ABC's amalgam of drama, murder mystery, parlor game and elimination competition for money is a curious mishmash.

    I personally enjoyed this series: excellent production, lots of storylines along with strategic play.

    Cannot wait for a season two.

    Also downloaded the audiobook as well which served as the prelude. One of the better e-Books I listened to.
