Anyone else watched/watching this? I'm quite enjoying it, although disappointed it is only 4 episodes. I've just got the last one left to watch.

The 'contestants' are a lot less cocky than I expected and it is refreshing to hear them talking quite honestly about feeling overwhelmed or uncertain. I

Don’t understand how people can watch reality so called tv

The conversations with the brokers in the flat in America. Not enjoying watching them. They were trying to test them and Krish and Aly were obviously just trying to think of things to say.
Trying to catch them out and make them feel/look stupid.
Trying to make him look stupid for not pulling the chairs out for them. I mean for god's sake.
Aly was the one boasting he's not nervous and yet he was clearly way more nervous than Krish.
Krish came across better.

Yeah I thought the chairs comment was very odd, women aren't pathetic creatures unable to move a chair!

They had very quickly taken a dislike to him though and were looking for any opportunity to criticise.

But being an agent is all about knowing your product. All the other programmes I've watched of this ilk have expected to know the detail of what they're selling such as the type of marble in the bathroom, where the kitchen was sourced from and if it was a well known architect who it was. I don't think it was 'trying to catch them out'. It was trying to see who had prepared and done their homework.

Clearly Aly hadn't but I found him creepy and off putting. He didn't manage to engage in anyway with the NY agents which is what made it cringey 😬. He struck me as the sort of person who thinks he can charm people but he really didn't have the people skills he thought he had.

Krish on the other hand was lovely. I was so pleased he got it. When he was asked what style he would describe the kitchen as he may not have got it completely right but he had a go and then had a sensible discussion about their thoughts on it. To the same question Ali just stood there like a plank.

Yes I agree Krish was much more likeable. It was uncomfortable watching Aly.
