Flinch is a thrilling Netflix game show where contestants are pushed to the extreme through various games revolving around fear and reflexes. Hosted by comedians Desiree Burch, Lloyd Griffith, and Seann Walsh, Flinch takes place in a remote countryside location where contestants must face their fears while trying to keep their cool and avoid flinching.

In this intense show, contestants participate in different challenges where they must face their phobias or fears. The show is structured in a way that each round increases in level of difficulty, causing contestants to engage in extreme reflex exercises such as standing still with eggs strapped to their body, being surrounded by live snakes or trying to dodge water balloons launched by a slingshot.

One of the show's highlights is a game where contestants attempt to catch apples in their mouths while standing on a podium. However, the challenge takes an unexpected turn when they realise that the apples are not just apples, but also contain live scorpions, tarantulas or even electric eels.

As each game progresses, the show's hosts provide light-hearted comedic entertainment to ease tension and create a fun environment for the contestants. Whether it is Lloyd's quirky humour, Desiree's infectious laughter or Seann's witty remarks, the show remains entertaining throughout, putting participants and viewers on edge whilst keeping a playful atmosphere.

Flinch contestants come from all walks of life, including firefighters, office workers and even cheerleaders, all brought together with one common goal - beat the other competitors and become the ultimate Flinch champion. However, with the challenges becoming increasingly more challenging, the contestants become more isolated and strategic, with tensions often rising due to the competitive nature of the game.

Overall, Flinch is an exciting and original game show with a perfect balance of intense challenges, light-hearted humour, and competitive edge. The show is perfect for anyone looking for a thrilling and entertaining viewing experience and showcases some of the most nerve-wracking, yet impressive, stunts ever seen on TV. Flinch will have you on the edge of your seat, testing even the bravest of viewers to see which contestant emerges as the ultimate Flinch champion.
