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.

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.



Ooh, nice outfit. What is that, Dacron?

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.

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.

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.

have u seen the one where bear spider monkey tackles a wild boar, gets thrown around for a bit, then slits its throat w/ his knife that resembles a gladiator's sword? that was some crazy crap. 
aren't you glad it wasn't you? - g.h.
