sucker for Orange
He looked nearly dead when they came to check him out medically.Man, that's too bad. Dave really screwed up, how could he hold out for so long with that food? He pushed his body too far and then it was too late

No kidding, what did he have, 30+ filets stored there? I get what he was going for, he had to imagine that 70ish days would win it for him based on previous seasons, but crazy. When he started getting woozy and falling, he should have dug into those filets. At least enough to get his strength back to string his bow.Damn. Dude ####ed up. If only he dug into his reserves sooner. So upsetting to see him have to go like that. He's gonna be regretting his strategy for a long time. His little speech about feeling something lacking at home but feeling more complete out there alone in the wild was sad. Really bummed for him.
This was the first season my daughter and wife watched and I explained how the other years it was people "tapping out" that created the winner...Sucks that someone won because the other was forced out.
Teams?Season 4 starts in June can't wait love this show.Looks like they may be changing things up some.

I disagree (but then again Im a reality/survival show junkie). I think the fact that there's no pre-determined end-date is what makes this show interesting. I stopped watching Naked and Afraid because of this very reason. It became, "who can sit around and do absolutely nothing so they can survive 21 days without food". It was boring and tortuous. Alone contestants don't have the luxury of sitting around and waiting for the show to end.Will have to see how it goes. But the Facebook comment is right that they show does get pretty boring when it just turns into "who can starve longest".
have to say that with the new information I'm more intrigued then I was before when I thought it was "Teams"..New season starts June 15th.Teams being dropped miles apart should add a little drama still not sure I like the team concept.

so, although they are in "Teams".. They are not dropped together in Teams, so have to survive "Alone" long enough to try and find their Team member.. wonder if they are given "Your family member is 5 miles to the NW, or something along those lines??7 pairs of family members travel to Northern Vancouver Island, a remote and rugged region of British Columbia known as the “Wet Coast”. Each duo will be separated from their loved one and dropped miles apart with 2 ultimate goals; navigate the brutally thick wilderness in an attempt to locate their family member and survive as long as they can, completely isolated and alone. The participants will only have the contents of their small backpacks, enough camera gear to record their experience and 10 tools split between them. Once reunited, each team must create their own shelters, pull food from the ocean, overcome harsh terrain, bitter cold, drenching downpours, contend with a host of deadly predators and each other. They will truly be on their own. No camera crew. No gimmicks. Last team standing wins.
Was just wondering this as well. Miles apart w/ no idea of direction in the wilderness could be an issue.so, although they are in "Teams"..

I'm in.Anyone in for this evenings season premier?
Yea, the "Mansion" she built is looking good so far.Looks like the off the grid couple will do ok if the husband is as good as the wife.
And yet, in both instances, its been the person at the end that has tapped.Man, the team member who draws the short straw and has to hike 10 miles through that #### really gets screwed. If I'm that guy, my partner at the other end better have a bad-### shelter, fire, a supply of fish, and a blow job ready.
What's the name of this one?I've enjoyed the discovery series about the guys panning for gold alone. Seems a bit more realistic.
For some it will be an advantage... But you dam well better get along as you have no one else to break the tension. One small argument could become a war and one saying ENOUGH and tapping out.They didn't do a great job of selecting contestants based on the first two drops. Really needed 10 teams, but I imagine they are stretching the show's resources thin tracking 14 people as it is.
So do you think it will be easier or harder for a team of two after some of these teams hook up? Obviously it will be easier to pass time as a pair and one can gather wood while the other hunts, but double the food in a limited area might be tough.
I think it's a great advantage to the husband/wife team. They already have longevity in their relationship, so they know everything about each other already. Not ready to proclaim them my pick but they are leading the pack early on for me.They didn't do a great job of selecting contestants based on the first two drops.

And they brought soap. So they can do it. That's a huge advantage.I think it's a great advantage to the husband/wife team.

They decide as a team who hikes and who camps.Man, the team member who draws the short straw and has to hike 10 miles through that #### really gets screwed. If I'm that guy, my partner at the other end better have a bad-### shelter, fire, a supply of fish, and a blow job ready.
Funny part is, on the two teams out, neither quitter was the hiker.Wasn't sure that I liked the idea of teams, but it's going well so far (probably cause they are separated). 2 teams out already, yikes.
As another poster mentioned, that hike looks brutal,
I know. Crazy. The one guy twisting his ankle or knee sucks. Would be hard to keep going with that kind of injury, but the other guy just gave up.Funny part is, on the two teams out, neither quitter was the hiker.

What has surprised me is the two that have quit were the ones setting up the campsite.
