I've finally finished binge-watching Series 2 of Unbeatable after a near 2-month break and I have to say it's such a shame that this show only lasted 2 series and, in other words, became yet another unfortunate casualty of the BBC's consistently insane and ridiculous decision-making in recent years because, of all their gameshows I've watched so far, I would probably go as far to say that this is one of the better shows.
The format is decent for what it is and the theme tune sounds kind of alright.
However, I do wish that they could've made the font size of both the questions and the answers that pop up on the larger screens much more clearer because there were times where I just found them damn near impossible and confusing to read.
But in terms of what this show gets absolutely right, it is the host himself. Jason Manford easily saves this show from being yet another failed BBC gameshow experiment especially with his charm, his charisma, his likability and especially his humour. Honestly, in my book, he is like the Mancunian human version of Winnie-the-Pooh: this warm, huggable teddy bear of a man that you just cannot help but want to fall in love with every time he is on screen.
In conclusion, while Unbeatable does play it safe at times and doesn't exactly do anything all that creative and out-of-the box (like the majority of other gameshows I've watched so far), it is still one of the better gameshows in my book (right up there with the likes of The Boss and Lightning), especially due to the fantastic hosting job by Manford.
My overall rating for Unbeatable: 7.5/10.
