How to watch Beast Games, MrBeast’s new reality TV show

How to watch Beast Games, MrBeast’s new reality TV show

MrBeast, aka Jimmy Donaldson, is a very rich man who loves making average civilians fight for money on the internet, and now he’s doing the exact same thing but on a different platform (technically still on the internet though) . He works with Amazon Prime Video for beast games, a new competition series in which 1,000 people compete for prizes worth millions of dollars, including $5 million in cash (the “largest cash prize in TV history,” says the series synopsis), fancy cars and a private island. How do you include a gifted private island on your tax return? Taxes were the least of some participants’ worries as a class action lawsuit was filed against Donaldson and Prime Video over alleged unpaid wages and hostile working conditions; Several participants were hospitalized during filming of the games, and other participants claimed meals on set were “small and sporadic.” Unfortunately, meals may not be Donaldson’s forte.

The first two episodes are currently streaming on Prime Video. New episodes will air every Thursday until the finale on February 13th (except for the penultimate episode on Friday, February 7th). None of the episodes will be available to stream on YouTube, except for a teaser-style 20-minute video in which he limited the number of participants for the official series from 2,000 to 1,000.
