Well, you'll want to know that Sunday is a Discovery Channel marathon. All four episodes of Naked Castaway, & then the next episode of Naked & Afraid. At least on my side of the free world, it will be from 6-10PM

& yeah, I'd have a rather tough time getting past the wandering eye. Guys look at a naked woman instinctually, especially Americans. Yes, guy #1 was a fair amount of jerk, & then he just got worse as life began sucking. He even admitted to some past social difficulties. The mental state of a person is just as important as their physicality & skills. Guy #2 would have done wonderfully I bet, if he'd only come up with his sandals idea sooner



I haven't seen any of Dual Survival since Dave Canterbury got fired. He was the perfect balance to Cody Lundin. For what it's worth, I liked him. I also liked Mykel Hawke's show with his wife too, & Les Stroud grew on me. I thought he was boring at first. I don't care for Bear Grylls. It seems like his show's goal is not about survival so much as it's about man VERSUS wild. As a result, he takes a lot of ridiculous risks & does stupid stunts that should not be encouraged if you are in the precarious position of having to survive time in the wild

Prime example
I'll have to check and see if I have Discovery. I don't actually pay for cable, but somehow I get some cable channels. :idon'tknow:

I mostly live off a diet of Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime.

I would have had to have some alone time after the "crotch fishing" event. :lol:

I didn't realize that Canterbury got fired. I'll have to look up why. I'll agree, the two did balance eachother out. Although, I wouldn't call Lundin a hippy. He's more of a primitive, not a "bush-hippy". I have a lot of respect for that man. I would never take his course though, because he'd make me eat bugs and I don't eat bugs (well not anymore). The Canterbury's replacement is pretty cool. I'm probably biased because he's a MarSoc Marine. He looks like some actor, but I can't place it. Drives me nuts. His demeanor is a bit more subdued than Canterbury and I don't see him butting heads, at all really, with Lundin, but he's not a pussy, just more of a team player.

I thought Mykel Hawke was pretty bad-ass. I actually saw him on a show, way before the survival craze, talking about jungle survival. His voice makes me laugh, it's like the all-American hero voice. Anyways, I said I "thought" Hawke was bad-ass, that is until the last couple of episodes when he took of his shirt and he had NIPPLE RINGS! I just couldn't respect him after that. lol

Les... boring. I just can't get into his show. I have much respect for the man and his abilities, but I just get too bored. I haven't seen his new show, yet. Maybe I'll give that a second chance.

I like Bear Grylls, but I'll admit he's pretty over the top. I used to watch him a lot. Even after the "hotel" controversy. I get that he's showing us how to survive. I don't need him to actually starve and shit. In fact, that's pretty much how I learn, from people showing me examples. So when I learned how to stab people properly, I didn't need my instructor to actually stab someone. And I guess that goes back to the "Naked and Afraid" examples of the people receiving medical attention. What douche expects them to actually die?

Anyways, I used to watch him until he at apple chunks out of bear shit. That was a bit much for me.

If you ever get the chance, you should check out a special he did called, "Escape to the Legion" or something like that. He's really in his element there. He and a dozen or so volunteers go through mock Foreign Legion training somewhere in Northern Africa. It's a six part series, I think. Pretty cool.

^Because naked makes everything better... duh? :p Actually, there's no practical reason for them to be naked. No one's ever going to be caught in the wild totally naked, but it's a gimmick to get people to tune in

Because all of his credentials were BS... at least in regards to survival training, expertise, & experience. Lundin & Discovery had little alternative to remain credible, & say what you will about Lundin's alternative methods. He's extremely credible.

I think Grylls really put me off on one particular episode where he is in an urban setting. I believe it was some kind of abandoned former Soviet industrial area somewhere . He's climbing around rafters, riddling through ductwork, setting off explosions, & jumping off shit like a Jackie Chan movie, & the more I looked at his show, the more I realized he's always doing extreme shit like that for no decent reason. Seems too glamorized to me, & is even more offputting than Les Stroud's boringness

& the Grylls scandal tends to play to that glamor factor some

Actually, he sounds almost exactly like Patrick Swayze. To me his voice sounds like the quintessential Hollywood U.S. Military Commander Guy voice, that voice that Mel Gibson does a poor impression of in "We Are Soldiers"



Watching the Naked Island Castaway show marathon right now. This butthead is a doofas. I'm halfway into the first episode & this dude's gonna be hurting. Day 12 of 60. No proper cutting tool, no fire yet, & in a drastic water shortage situation. Wicking several ounces a day off of a rock, puddling up dew in snail shells & minimal cocoanuts.

Yup... and just now... puking up 3 days of raw snails. Not smart. Been eating raw shore trash for nearly 2 weeks. Dude needs a fire pronto. Ed Stafford is his name. He sounds like a Brit, & he's a goofy putz too. Finally got a fire on day 13, & a shirt & two sandals floated ashore for him. Fade to black End episode 1.

And the ad for tonight's Naked & Afraid team is making guy #3 look like a big, tattooed, muscle bound, total puss, & the Hawaiian surfer girl is the backbone of the team

Ha! He found a rugby ball. Instead of naming it Wilson, he named it Gilbert. :lol: He's using it as a pillow. This goofy weirdo is growing on me

day 42 he finally got a piece of a motor wash ashore & was able to at last make a knife with it. Then a couple days later he stumbled on a trapped goat. What a lucky F@%&er

Okay, very first episode, where he finds the conch shell, is loaded with rocks that can be shattered and used as cutting instruments.

Hula girl is hot.

She's the hottest girl on the show so far. Check out the website. She's down right smoking all done up

Yeah, Ed was pretty stupid at the beginning. He's on the "After" show now talking about how stupid he was to be eating fistfuls of raw snails, which could act parasitically on the brain. To his credit, he only needed intervention with antibiotics twice, & he made it the full 60 days, & some time into the 2nd month he starts coming along, & gets a really lucky score with a trapped goat

Okay,

Tweets on a show is akin to VHI Pop-up video or worse, MTV's show that plays about 60 seconds of a song that's further interrupted by bit where kids scream shout-outs over the song.

Ha ha, ed smashed his pinky and cried. I once got shot in balls and laughed. What a pussy.

I don't mind popups sometimes, if they are extra info, or bonus extras, but tweets suck

With a head as bald as his, he should have probably used that leather rugby ball as a hat

I couldn't not try to get down her pants (metaphorically speaking of course since she doesn't have pants). I certainly wouldn't act like a bitch. No matter how shitty I felt. Seriously, I managed to become a squad leader in the School of Infantry while dealing with the remnants of walking pneumonia, simply because I was terrified of looking like a malingerer. Add pussy to that equation and I can fucking fly.

My guess is that this Marine was a bitch ass POG. That's probably why he's so frigging huge.

Meh, there's bitches everywhere I guess.

Anyhow, YES I agree! Maybe there will be a future where this show comes out, "uncensored" and uncut.

Don't believe it. They've already aired some "Uncensored" versions online & such, but it's still blurred & bleeped, which doesn't even make any sense. That's ok though, her unblurred rear is treasure enough

Sorry to say it, because he's a verified Marine, but he's quite the puss, mostly socially

Well since he's such a pussy, I'll let you get away with not capitalizing the "M" in Marine this one time. :p

And yes, her ass is glorious. She's like my ideal type ('im guessing) as I described her in Janeway's thread about what makes a real woman. Broad ass and little boobs.

I can fix that. lol

She finished with the highest survival rating of any of the others this season 8.4. She has easily been my favorite person on this show, & not just because she's been the best to ogle. She's just an amazing woman

If anyone gets their own tv deal out of this, it should be her

I'm not going to talk about the obvious, because if I do, I'll just run on and on and on and on and sound like little kid. Just know that obvious statment is obvious.

Anyhow,

This "guy" was a bitch. I'm glad he eventually manned up and gave her the respect she deserved, but his attitude at first was shit. Speaking of shit. Dude is nasty. Just out of pride, I would have walked way out of site and parked my can there and shit there. Jesus Christ. To just shit right behind the shelter and leave it, that's a rookie move.

I remember laying under an improvised shelter in Qatar with my bladder threatening to burst because I refused to go pee. Why, because the trench was fifty yards away. It was that effing hot. But, my point is that despite being that miserable, there was no way I was going to take a piss just outside my shelter.

In the Marine Corps, this dude was a "muscle head". He got everything he got because he could pt. Not because he was smart. Those guys are good for a thing or two, but not much else. And he proved it on that show.

What a dipshit. And he could have either pasteurized that water in those plastic bottles or set them out in the sun for the UV rays to kill the bacteria. There was no need for his undisciplined and rash decision.

Douche.

So I'm also wondering what Discovery's criteria for "survival expert' when out of the horses mouth he stated that he wasn't and he was just a city kid.

Alison did very well and was very mentally tough. You're right, Mojo, she's an amazing woman.

Don't want to make a political statement here, but I am forced to make an observation, that may have political connotations. Notice that this girl never spent a day in a school. Obviously she was educated but she was probably "unschooled" by her parents. Look how amazingly dynamic she is. Well adjusted, confident and super smart. Not just street smarts either. Her parent's did a great job.

Obvious statement. Not gonna make it.
