Fight For Paradise Review: This reality show is nothing new but there are so many uncomfortable moments that will definitely give you the ick.
Not entirely surprised. And boy what an episode it was!
Not a single person I know wasn't watching it. I mean we are talking people I would never in a million years would think would sit through a show about zombies and that "violent." I say "Wow that was an amazing show" and these people "I agree!" and all I can think is "wow, it must be good if they are watching it."
I think I only saw one person "not liking it" but at the same time was being negative about the show before it even started.
