The Hunt: Prey vs Predator

A new TV Series The Hunt: Prey vs Predator was run by Channel 4 in the UK. It was shown on NZ television by TV One and available on demand. I like The Traitors and it had some similarities so decided to give it a go. At first I felt frustrated as fast runners had a distinct advantage. However, I persisted and enjoyed it more as it progressed. 

An unnecessary negative for me is the producers didn't bleep out swearing. It wasn't outrageous but enough to make me consider giving up. Otherwise it's worth a watch. It didn't have the budget of The Traitors but that didn't worry me. 

Apparently there won't be another one as it didn't generate the viewer numbers hoped for in the UK. Maybe many people didn't know about it. I only stumbled upon it after several episodes in.

It's one thing to be self-confident but quite another to be egotistical. A line not to be crossed.
