Yeah definitely agree with this.
Challenges are wayyy too physical, especially with the Australian series. US ones have a balance and they switch it up every now and then so that it's not always the physical buff guys winning everything.
Also I've noticed that Andy has put up his hand for most of the important part of the challenges... which could be detrimental to his game after saying he wants to slide under the radar a bit. That's the superfan in him coming out for sure... but could start end up being considered a challenge/puzzle beast at the merge.

Ah yes - re the physicality, I was actually referring to the level of physical contact between competing teams, although I agree that there’s a bit much focus on the physical side in the early challenges.
That’s an interesting call re Andy ... they showed him practicing his throwing before the series started and it’s already been a useful skill a couple of times. I suspect there’s a strong temptation to make use of that skill when the time comes, especially if you’ve been prepping for it (!), but it is possible he gives himself away a bit/drawing attention to himself.

Apologies for those posts that I have deleted, however it was recommended that people don't spoil in this thread. (Couldn't move without them appearing above the banner/initial explanation post)
I've now created a separate thread where current TV/Series can be discussed without the fear of spoiling. https://supercoachscores.com/threads/tv-series-discussion-spoiler-central.4244/
This thread will remain as a recommendation type thread.
This should cater to both needs.

New to Netflix this week:
The Good Place (Season 4): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4955642/
Synopsis:
When Eleanor Shellstrop finds herself in the afterlife, she's both relieved and surprised that she's made it into the Good Place. But it doesn't take long for Eleanor to realize she's there by mistake. She hides in plain sight from the Good Place's architect, Michael, and his all-knowing assistant, Janet. Her seemingly perfect neighbors, Tahani and Jason, and open-hearted soul mate, Chidi, help her realize that it's never too late to change. With the help of her new friends -- and a few enemies -- Eleanor becomes determined to shed her old way of life in hopes of discovering a new one in the afterlife.
Starring Ted Danson and Kristen Bell and have seen S1-S3 and would highly recommend it.

Thanks for flagging @Connoisseur ... The Good Place is a terrific show, I also highly recommend it.

Fantastic 1st season largely thanks to the unexpected twist, but the quality has started to diminish recently but this is alleviated by the fourth season being the final one.
Ted Danson fan, primarily from his work on Cheers and appearances on Curb Your Enthusiasm, which was one of the main enticing factors for watching the Good Place. Eventually have to catch the complete Becker series as I’ve only seen snippets in comparison to seeing the Cheers series multiple times.
