That's My Jam (TV Series) Taika Waititi & Rita Ora vs. Normani & Taraji P. Henson (2022) User Reviews

Terrible Episode

[ubaycentral · 3/10 · 12 January 2022]

Having the contestants not follow the rules of the game ruins the premise of the show. Everything just fell flat and was a weak episode. Nothing against the celebrities but is it so hard to follow instructions? Some of the games felt boring. Truly a waste of time.

Giving it 2 Stars because at least they got through the episode

This episode is a great example of why you don't do celebrities on shows; you have to air it no matter how much of a train wreck it is. The first 2 episodes of Take My Jam were great entertainment and were easy to watch and enjoy. This episode showed us contestants who did not care to follow the rules, were completely disruptive, and made me create an account to review. I've never seen these contestants outside of their element (movie, tv show, or performing) so maybe they just don't understand how to play a game show without making audiences roll their eyeballs and wondering why they're wasting their time watching.

Could it be because of the "star level" of the celebrities? I don't believe so because there are other game shows with less "famous" celebrities where everything goes smoothly. Some producer/director/whoever needed to step in and get things in order or this show will lose more viewers every week.

That was a complete wreck

Q: What's it like to watch a plane that crashes into a train on a bridge that collapses onto a ferry packed with cars?

A: This episode.

I liked the first Episode even though i felt like there was some softball throws in there. The second episode was better than the first. The third episode seems to have missed the garbage bin.

The contestants were disruptive and broke the rules a lot and they gave them a pass on it. That annoys me because if you are going to break rules then why have any?

I cringed most of the way through this episode. There was one highlight of the show for me, which i won't reveal but it was the only part of the show in which i didn't cringe.

If this had of been the pilot, this show would have been DOA. If they have to many more episodes that are like this, it might not even finish the season.

I like the show overall when it goes like EP2 or even EP1 but EP3 was worse than watching CATS a couple of years ago in the movie theater. Yeah.... It's THAT bad.

Yikes!

This episode was nuts, as others have said. I couldn't wait for them to all get wet. I think some of their publicists cried a bit afterwards...

Even the band was like, HUH?

I feel sorry for the majority of the people involved in this

Who needs rules when you can just create anarchy? Obviously That's My Jam is not truly a competitive gameshow, and it's all just for fun and entertainment. But if you're going to have guests who just ignore the rules, then what's the point of having them?

There are some good moments in the show, but it was a tough watch for the most part, and it's a good job this wasn't the first episode or I'm not sure many people would have tuned in for the second one.

Luckily this appears to be the one and only swing and a miss this season. To anyone involved in this show that was actually trying to make a good piece of content, we appreciate you.
