on discovery now. pretty good stuff. love the guy. probably very, very, edited though.
-
Its dumb, lady is annoying.
Other survival show is constant banner about hippie not wearing shoes.
Bear Grylls for life (even if he slept indoors sometimes)
-
Survivorman or GTFO.

Survivorman was surviving before surviving was cool.
-
Survivorman re-enactment:
"Don't leave, you will get lost. Stay near camp and don't do anything interesting"
-
Bear Grylls re-enactment:
"Hey camera d00d, don't point your camera over there! There's a busy interstate about a mile away, I gotta make this crap look real! eff it, I'll be in my trailer!"
-
bear was super cheesy. Liked survivor man even if he didn't go anywhere.
-
I should clarify a bit. Early Bear Grylls was decent. After a while I felt like that show collectively tried too hard. Les Stroud showed us how it is: boring, mind-numbing, occasionally exciting and ESSENTIAL TO THE PRESERVATION OF YOUR LIFE!!!! And he did it with no camera crew.
Bear Grylls=Theatrical
Les Stroud=Realistic
-
Bear Grylls = Awesome, exiciting
Les Stroud = Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!), boring
-
Bear Grylls=phony who eats walmart beef jerky and says it's bush meat.
Les Stroud=Badass that wades through arctic waters for two bites of rotten salmon left on a rock two weeks ago by the grizzly that's now stalking him.

so anyway...does anybody else think that the man on man, woman, wild looks a lot like a young lorenzo lamas? what great tv.

How is that a survivalist show? Its a drama, not a reality/survival show. Its Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

You don't know what I watch :dunno:

Without looking it up, which state do you think the MWW guy is from? I'm guessing Florida. He seems like a Southerner but doesn't have the accent.

Thats it i'm mad :curse:

Says the Bear Grylls defender :rolleyes:

Man vs Wild is about surviving in the wild - no matter how much he sleeps in hotel rooms. The Colony is about a fantasy world that doesn't exist.
-
I like the dual survival guys. Everything else is boring. :excited:

Too much complaining about the hippie guy's feet. I swear every episode they have a whole segment dedicated to explaining that he hasn't worn shoes in 30 years.

Love this show. I think I like last seasons cast a little better, but the "world" or season 2.

Yeah but it's very cool that he doesn't wear shoes and also for casual viewers just tuning in, they would be like 'wtf why is this guy barefoot on a survival show gmafb' and then demand an explanation.

MWW - watch it but not sure why, it sux and if they were to ever attempt to do one Survivorman expedition they'd be dead in hours. It's like dude got on the internet the day before the taping and read a bit about how to start a fire and stuff.
Bear brings some knowledge but I have to give the nod to the camera man, he's the one taking chances while Bear is a fake.
Dual Survivor is good in a corny sort of way, but it too is staged beyond anything I can truly appreciate. Did anyone else notice the last episode where they got a wild turkey? the turkey was tied to something with fishing string (just a guess here) and couldn't get away. Seriously? And not only do they have a turkey lined up for dinner, but they also have a nice fresh 20 fracking pound Salmon killed and waiting for them to simply pick up and take back to the fire. Talk about roughing it and teaching us how to survive. Still, I watch.
Les Stroud puts reality into reality.

:cheers: Good summary.
I can't get myself to watch MWW though. It's boring. Les Stroud really goes out there and survives. He shows you how it's done.
-
man oh man. like a cross between a god damn young lorenzo lamas and an in shape nick lachey. my tv is about to explode.
-
So I think we can all agree then, that if Les Stroud looked like Lorenzo Lamas, he would be GOD!
-
I don't care how staged Bear's show is, the crazy crap he does is real and exciting to watch. I don't feel like watching Stroud complain all night then fall asleep. That's all it is.

can't stand the way bear says glacier.
