In the new episode of Chain reactionconducted by Pino Insegno on Rai 1 Tuesday 25 Junethe reigning champions – “You unleash them” (three neuroscientists named Gianna, Sveva and Ersilia) – and the new arrivals – “Three friends and a tent” (Danilo, Gianluca and Marco, three young Neapolitans who met while camping), challenge each other to try to win the prize money they will win during the live broadcast. Let’s find out together what happened and the reactions on social media (which obviously never fails).
Chain Reaction, episode 25 June 2024: what happened
During the episode of the game show led by Pino Insegno, we witness a last-ditch challenge, where both teams try to do their best, even if then the unleashed ones, especially in the Last chain and in the winning Entente, they “struggle” to remember some basic notionslike the date of the Unification of Italy and the figure of Marco Polo (they pass the doubling without even trying), and also show a certain hesitation in associating The Lonely Sparrow to Giacomo Leopardi. Then they immediately guess the Zot, not difficult at all but still an achievement for Gianna, Sveva and Ersilia who, in doing so, they “steal” 5 seconds from their opponents in the heat of the Winning Agreement, where the latter often get lost, returning to 0 words at least a couple of times, and then recovering a bit by guessing two doubles (too bad it’s not enough to obtain the title of champions).
The winners of the step are The Unleashed, who reach the Last Chain with a prize money equal to 89 thousand euros, then halved several times along the way until the final word, which at this point is worth 22,300 euros. Afterwards, the reigning champions decide to buy the third element and the prize pool drops to 11,125 euros. What term brings together “double” and “closed”? The word begins with the letters “ri” and ends with the vowel “o”. The wild ones hypothesize many solutions, some a little too forced, to the point of focusing on “rumble“, which however turns out to be wrong: the right one is “folded”, a word that arouses quite a bit of controversy on social media. Now the three young people will have to wait until this evening, Wednesday 26 June, to hope to take home the prize money.
The controversies on social media
Many controversy on social mediasome aimed precisely at the complexity of the word conceived by the authors: “Last word tonight a bit meh“, “Word for doesn’t let anyone win, ok“, “The faces of all three“, “The blonde ladies from before had a great time… the usual mood of twisted associations resumed“. And, changing the subject, we find other criticisms mostly regarding the three champions: “Can you say that they’re thinking a bit haphazardly?“, “Hesitant about Leopardi but it’s not possible“, “Very favorites during the winning agreement, even these relatives of someone!“, “Giacomi Leopardi, famous poem. It’s already a long time since I knew that Leopardi is a poet“, “Blank look because they don’t even understand when they give her the answer“, “He doesn’t even know the year of the unification of Italy! How much ignorance“, “This one didn’t know Marco Polo or even the year of the Unification of Italy…“, “I would even get my nails checked by these 3 doctors!“.
There are also on the web criticism of the authors and compliments for the challengers of Unleashed: “The words of the challengers seemed more difficult to me“, “I find that Zot makes sense and a good reason to exist, but I also believe it is the only game in which the solution should always be of medium difficulty and never that easy“, “Zot elementary“, “I think it’s the third time in 50 years of the program that a team has scored two doubles in a row“. Finally, there is no lack of criticism of Pino Teach: “Refinement and delicacy characterize Insegno. For a notion he possesses he embarrasses the competitors!“
