I wasn't the biggest fan of season 1 of this show, they seemed to be trying REALLY hard to be funny, too hard. But it was light-hearted fun all around, and I do like mini-golf.
I'm not sure what happened in season 2? It's like they took feedback from the audience to be even more "zany", but it has resulted in a show so concerned with making jokes that you barely see any actual play by the contestants. It's bizarre, but I honestly think they spend more time with the hosts yucking it up than they do showing any actual gameplay. They never even have time to show a complete round, it's always just highlights.
If the hosts were truly funny, I suppose that would be fine? But they really aren't. Season 1 was about 80% game, 15% hosts, 5% Stephen Curry, which was okay. Season 2 seems to be on a 30% / 60% / 10% ratio now, which is a big problem.
As a contestant, I would not be happy to find out after the fact you only saw me for 30 seconds on screen, which is about all anyone gets now.
The net result is somewhat boring, as I'm forced to watch unfunny people (who should stick to scripted content) be unfunny, with hardly any actual game show left.
