Both are better than this but when Spice Girls plans are essentially down to others committing what else can they do?

MUSIC!! Both of them could work on music
 I need another Bunton album and at LEAST a Mel B single! That would be the only thing worth me investing in apart from a group album... |

They look fab. Wish they were lookin fab in some sort of music project..." The show doesn't look like my sort of thing at all, but I will watch it for the two of them. I do think there's a silver lining to this...and that's having some Spices associated with a juggernaut like Netflix. Could this partnership...maybe...lead to a more interesting project down the road? That's my hope anyway. And I will say I have several friends who are obsessed with this show. It has its following. I do rank this a bit higher than the Coinmaster thing. |

Though wasnt there confirmation that the tour-documentary they were filming in 2019 was for Netflix and it got cancelled when (hi Gerita) pulled the plug on the post-Spiceworld Stadium Tour 2019 activities?? |

Decided to make this a separate topic in case any of us watch it and would like to discuss it!

I will be watching because I love the show anyway it’s one of my favourites… I do find it a bit cringe them being on it though when their own celeb one was Richard Maddley 😒🙈

I'm halfway into the second episode. I would never watch this without the two of them involved, buuut....I do have to say Mel and Emma seem to be having a blast and are really funny on it. The set-up of the show plays well to their personalities. They're being forced into challenges...and having to think on their feet...and their scrambling to figure out what to do is actually really cute. I mean, yeah, I'd rather them be recording music or touring...but I do prefer this over another judging gig. For me, it's a better use of their vibe.
As for the show, one thought keeps coming back to me. The rest of the cast is fairly young, and it's pretty well established that they...um...er...well. Let's just say I don't think they're going to know much about music from before 10/15 years ago. Are they even going to know who the Spice Girls are? The Spices' US exposure isn't great these days. Wannabe's here and there...Mel B had the stint on Got Talent...and the Beckhams pop up now and then. But. I feel like you kinda have to seek out the Spices a bit these days. So. Beats me how it's all gonna go down on this show... |

Wait so this is a US show???
That makes more sense to me, actually and clearly it is a way to build the Spice brand there. As you say, and very well, their name isnt as strong as it could be! |

I have now seen all 4 episodes.
They came across so well ! What a great idea to connect with a younger audience! |

I've been loving this. Our girls only came in at the end of the first episode, so that was a bit of a slog. But now they're here it's really great.
The dynamic they have is really entertaining and adorable. And I'm actually starting to warm to the contestants too. This post has been edited by McAndrew: 8th May 2022, 07:07 PM |

Yes I think you're right. I can definitely see myself rewatching EPs 2 - 5
Edit: I forgot to mention how cool it is when they speak at the same time and say almost exactly the same thing. It really shows close they have been for so many years. This post has been edited by McAndrew: 9th May 2022, 07:18 AM |

The one good thing about this is it has given the Spice Girls insta a bit of a boost of a few thousand last few days.
