Anyone watching this season?

The last go round had me extremely bored. I watched them all, but recorded them so I could just fast forward to the final make-ups.

This year they are being divided into 2 groups of FX shops. And so far, it's just the same stuff. Where is that wow factor that Arista mentioned? So far, I'm not seeing it.

Totally agree. I record each episode and usually look forward to see it but this "season" is not keeping my interest. Nothing new, too much bickering and lousy format.

WTH Faceoff. This is getting painful. There is so much more to special effects make-up than creatures, trolls, fairies, sea creatures, werewolves, aliens, person made out of wood -- I'm over it. Although, I will say, the horns were very artistic.

Why can't they do a medical make-up--disease or accident of some sort? Or, what a twist if they could take an actual well known figure and disguise them. Could we guess who the person is? Do a drag queen make up. Do anything different than what they keep doing.

What other types of art would you like to see this creators produce?

Need to pursue other stuff for sure. Beauty make ups and disaster make ups.

Total lackluster season. Very disappointed. They changed the format up, but they keep doing the same make ups. Ho hum. Start doing some new techniques, fields, ideas -- NEW.
