I hope the snarky Scandinavian-accented head of operations gets better. The poor acting was really drawing me out.
Besides that, all-around solid premiere. I liked the teasing about "literally couldn't hurt a fly", and the (expected) payoff at the end.
I was a little distracted wondering about how the gunfighting worked between the guests and the hosts. Like, what if a guest mistakenly shoots another guest? Do the guests have real guns and the hosts have fake ones? Are they all fake and the hosts just are wired up with bullet holes ready to explode when targeted by a laser pistol? I was hoping for a wink to the camera explaining these 'rules of the game'. Maybe that will come next week.
