The Circle Brazil outshines the original
-levels gauche.) Each party is isolated to a one-bedroom apartment and is only allowed to interact with other players through a social media app called The Circle. Some choose to enter as a catfish; others embody a stylized version of themselves. They upload a profile with a few pictures and communicate exclusively through group chats.
That does not mean the show is without conflict. In one episode, the thirtysomething blacksmith Rob Vulcan poses as a young blacksmith woman, Julia, and greets a new character by assuming she is trans. At first, the crew views it as an ignorant oversight, but when he proceeds to ask about the gender on her birth certificate, Dumaresq jumps in to correct him. Everyone agrees. By the next episode, Rob is gone. They voted him out.
I’m not sure such an incriminating exchange would be corrected within an hour block on the American show. It was nice to see such an upsetting situation proactively addressed and resolved within the same breath. In reality television, a format prone to hyperbolizing human faults and hate rhetoric, it was refreshing to see the issue handled and intolerance removed.
