Personal opinion that's probably just colored by my own experience, but the most overhyped character this event's had is Fear. I was there when they rolled him out and the amount of buildup there and lore tie-ins to all the other icons didn't match a character that did little in his own scarezone and hasn't made too many appearances since. His lantern is more recognizable than he is.
For more substantive post material, is it possible with the sort of arranged podiums that whatever's going on in Fear Factor is some sort of game show or something?
