Netflix is taking reality TV by storm with viral hits. First the reality competition series The Circle, then they won hearts with Love is Blind and now they give us a reality documentary-series, 100 Humans. As with most shows there is always a crowd favorite. This time around it's Human #28.
Now that the producers at Netflix has shown us that love is indeed blind, they have another social experiment to explore. In 100 Humans, a hundred random humans from various backgrounds and demographics are participants in interactive experiments. They are used to prove or debunk popular trends and identify patterns in human behavior. Those involved in the experiments are respectively referred to as Human and their designated number to hide their identities. Topics they examine range from the age old question of is the toilet paper supposed to be over or under to trying to prove if women really talk more than men. Hosts Alie Ward, Sammie Obeid and Zainab Johnson, who all come from a background in entertainment, keep the experiments on track and add a little comedic flair to keep the show entertaining. Seeing the participants endure the various social psychological experiments is another level of entertainment. One particular participant who kept viewers wanting more is lovable Human #28.
Over a course of eight episodes, viewers get to know some of the humans involved, mostly basic information of hometown and occupation. There were even some familiar faces, like Emmy winner Ryan Zamo and YouTube star Avalon Warren. While some stood out more than others, none stood out quite like Human #28, Tyanta Snow, better known as Ty (via Instagram). Ty made quite the impression with his hilarious honesty, boisterous personality and admirable ability to burst into song at any given moment. The special education teacher from Pasadena, California, is also an actor and according to his IMDb page has been on several reality television shows as well as gameshows. His Instagram bio also indicates he's a gospel singer, which explains the ease of his musical talent.
Ty often used his gift of music to help him get through challenging experiments. He used it as a distraction during an experiment that required him to refrain from using the bathroom for five hours, then played a round of Jenga before he could go. Some of these felt quite brutal. It should be mentioned it was an experiment he prompted to be examined. In his most memorable moment of the season, he created a song to teach the game of Tic-Tac-Toe, which eventually went viral and probably changed how the old school game is introduced at a time of boredom. It may have increased the use of the game.
Season 1 of 100 Humans may be over, but after the success of this season, Human #28 is bound to grace our television screens again. Until then, there's always Tic-tac-toe, tic-tac-toe Love to play the game, tic-tac-toe.
100 Humans season 1 is currently available to stream on Netflix.
