I loved these two episodes together.

Yeah, I was underwhelmed with episodes 3-6, but these last two were really good.

It's both thrilling and terrifying.
I think the 7-8 arc is the best the show's done so far.

Lots of moving parts, teamwork, surprising developments, and a pretty exciting ending.

This was actually a lot more bearable than most of you made it out to be.
I really liked the callback to the first season. I also really liked the escape logic of this one that went beyond the classical escape room feel.

I also loved how Kim Jong-min just solve all those puzzles in seconds while still looking like the dumb one.

Wanted to say thanks for keeping on top of The Great Escape releases, and for the info link above. My wife and I finally started watching season 1 this week, and it's subtitling perfectly.

I'm not sure if it will hit The Genius levels of amazing, but I'm enjoying The Great Escape even more than Crime Scene or Society Game, for sure.

I just finished Genius S4. Where do I go from here? Preferably not Crime Scene.

You could go to Society Game, which is essentially Survivor. It's fine, but nothing special.

The current hotness in the thread is Great Escape. Both Society Game and Great Escape are done by the same PD as The Genius.

Crime Scene is good once they changed the format a bit halfway through Season 1.

Yeah, the second half of season 1 once they cut down cases to 1 episode each is when it really gets going and then season 2 just comes along and knocks it outta the park.

I'm not doing a re-watch but it probably would be better than some of the recommended game shows.

First ep of The Great Escape is ok. The laugh track is brutal.

Just posting to say that there's nothing yet on S02E11 of Great Escape. I know a new post excites people, but I also know that the silence of someone not doing their job is identical to the silence of no new news.

Also trying that poo poo where you say nothing's happening and minutes later something happens.

No 2x11 of Great Escape yet that I know of, but the bonus ep of Season 1 was just uploaded onto the /r/koreanvariety subreddit.

I watched the first 2 episodes of Great Escape S2, the first scenario was pretty neat clearly inspired by the Arrival film. I wish they spent more time trying to use the symbols to communicate with the alien.

Also in a rare instance for me, I immediately guessed the 6 blacks gimmick based on the RYB subtractive model as soon as I saw that table. :toot:

Still checking regularly for that last episode. It's still stalled with the fan translators.

The person who tried to get the season 2 Great Escape recap translated has started another thread trying to get that going again since it stalled out. Maybe this will finally get that project finished.

My double chin turned out to be a huge cyst
I just watched both seasons of great escape over the last couple of weeks and it really hit that Genius itch. They really upped their production value in the second season as well. I wonder what that giant underground base in the first episode of season 2 is used for normally.

Season 3 starts on February 29 and I'll definitely tune in to see more shots of Donghyun being scared.

I watched Season 2 first and am currently working my way through Season 1. I've only got a couple episodes left, so I'm very glad to hear there's more on the way.

Very much looking forward to S3. They clearly gave the show a bigger budget for S2, and they keep coming up with really good ideas for episodes.

Season 3 premiers on March 1st, with the original cast. Hopefully the subs drop soon after.

self-deprecation is a very british trait, and problems can arise when the british attempt to do so with a foreign culture





there's a british series called Taskmaster that hits a lot of the same notes The Genius hits. the first three series (and part of the 4th) are free on youtube
