For safety reasons alone, I dont see why you would ever be without your bow?
Joe has no shot at making it to the end. Seems like they found him at a Starbucks.

here I thought you were talking about the squirrelCrazy that it took seven seasons for us to see someone viciously attacked by a wild animal, and have to deal with the seeing the carnage and watching his suffering out there alone on his own for hours, no medical team close by enough to help, and having to manage to do first aid on his own while under continuous, unrelenting assault right there in front of the unblinking camera, no way to cut away. Granted, I thought when it did finally happen on this show, it'd be a bear or wolverine, and not a fly.

I think that was the best one so far.Are all these seasons as good as season 6? I just stumbled upon this last week and just finished season 6. Loved it
I started with 6 too, and then binged 1 and 2. Those two are similar to each other in that it's the same location...but still amazing how varied the contestants approaches and skills are. 2 adds an episode showing the final casting and training process, which in retrospect was really interesting.I think that was the best one so far.Are all these seasons as good as season 6?

Others are def worth watching though. Some of them turn into more “suffer fests” than that season where the winner showed some serious skills.
He must make it to the end or crash and burn. He's the only one that I can recall that has been on every episode.Stone house guy and ear bug guy also seem like they are doing well.
I think he’s the only one who has lived up there. That experience really helped the dude who won last year (he also got a noose though).He must make it to the end or crash and burn. He's the only one that I can recall that has been on every episode.
The General said:I think he’s the only one who has lived up there. That experience really helped the dude who won last year (he also got a noose though).
He’s also been unlucky with food and just started catching a fish or two. If he gets set up on that front he definitely has the right mentality.

We have YTTV too. Just went ahead and bought the season pass on Apple TV. 25 bucks. Worth it considering I haven’t even gone to see a movie in 6 months.Any way to stream episodes of the newest season? We have YouTubeTV, but they don't carry the History Channel. The History Channel site has older seasons for free, but not the newest one.
He was on Joe Rogan podcast awhile back. He could have lived up there all winter. He didn’t come out and say it but the show really had to get creative with the editing to make it look like he was being challenged.I just finished season 6 and read up on Jordan after. Laughed out loud when they said he took that giant fish he caught on the last day back to feed the production crew. They were apparently running out of food and he fed them
She also had that fire going just on some dirt right next to the plastic tarp that is roof. Seems like it could melt a hole in it pretty easily. Kind of a weird plan there.I'm a little confused about how the "chimney" works... looks like all she did was take an existing hole in the roof and spread some mud around the edges... is that all it takes to keep the shelter from filling up with smoke?
I just watched the episode and was literally laughing out loud at him. "Well, it's Day 24 but I'm really skinny so shouldn't use the energy on a shelter."This shelter situation for the skinny California guy is pretty ridiculous
Yeah there’s no way once it gets cold that he’s lasting. He has a tarp and a few branches laying on it for his set-upI just watched the episode and was literally laughing out loud at him. "Well, it's Day 24 but I'm really skinny so shouldn't use the energy on a shelter."
I did point out at the beginning that he started too skinny. What was he thinking? I mean, I get that he's hot and all, but he could have foregone that for just a little while to add some pudge.
South African guy reminds me of the woman from Lopez Island a few years ago who had built a freaking spa. And then she quit not because she had to, but because she felt she'd accomplished what she'd wanted or some such. Huge disappointment.Yeah there’s no way once it gets cold that he’s lasting.

The South African dude is building chairs and guitars at this point.
Yup. She had the best set-up that show has ever seen IIRC. Had a sauna, rock floor, all kinds of gadgets.South African guy reminds me of the woman from Lopez Island a few years ago who had built a freaking spa.

Yea the article I read said he still had 200 pounds of moose, 60 pounds of fish and that fn badger. They should paid him another 500k for every 50 days he lasted and just shown us that. I’m a big fan of that guy.He was on Joe Rogan podcast awhile back. He could have lived up there all winter.

Really interesting dude and super humble.
Agreed. Check out the podcast when you get a chance. Was a couple hours of him talking about his living in northern Russia a bunch about the show as well.Yea the article I read said he still had 200 pounds of moose, 60 pounds of fish and that fn badger.

Yea I’m going to listen to it in the morning. Thanks for the heads up.Agreed. Check out the podcast when you get a chance. Was a couple hours of him talking about his living in northern Russia a bunch about the show as well.
I was thinking the same about the blonde's shelter until this week, but she completely turned it around- the stone fireplace was impressive work The Cali guy had a nice start to a log cabin...aside from yoga, posing and playing with his hair, wonder what he's been doing with his time other than building the rest of it.Yeah there’s no way once it gets cold that he’s lasting.

I wondering if they all last a little longer this season. Knowing there's an endpoint of 100 days even though it's longer than anyone has lasted before has to do wonders for the mind. Personally I think the the not knowing what your end goal is would be tough to deal with and make it easier to quit.Yup. She had the best set-up that show has ever seen IIRC. Had a sauna, rock floor, all kinds of gadgets.
The SA guy did sort of hint in this last episode about home sickness and the mental side. Wonder is that’s a little foreshadowing:
Me too. No idea why. Caught up on demand.for whatever reason my dvr didn't record this last night
Wolverine right? Not that I know what the difference isYea the article I read said he still had 200 pounds of moose, 60 pounds of fish and that fn badger. They should paid him another 500k for every 50 days he lasted and just shown us that. I’m a big fan of that guy.
Lol. I keep thinking the same thing.My wife thinks they should shoot off tributes fireworks every time somebody goes down like in the hunger games.
Yup it was a Wolverine that he killed by throwing his ax at it. :badass:Wolverine right? Not that I know what the difference is
Somebody has had to seen it I would guess. I wonder how far apart they are spread out.Lol. I keep thinking the same thing.
ETA...but I wonder if some of them can see or hear the motor boat coming and going.
Roland is never going to leave. Just going to live there foreverThey really stepped up the contestants on this season. These people are all badasses.
That’s Stonehouse guy right? If he bags that ox he’s good all winterRoland is never going to leave. Just going to live there forever
Like I said, I think they found him at the Starbucks. 23 days in and his “shelter” is two feet high.This shelter situation for the skinny California guy is pretty ridiculous
I assume it’s much live Tribal on Survivor. Lasts a lot longer, but the producers decide what makes the cut and what doesn’t.What's Colby have against Amos? He seems to ignore him during the questions and answers.
I was thinking the same thing. Nice long pole sharpened at the end. Or attach the knife to the end of the spear. Don't think I would have wanted to get close enough to use a knife against that thing. He had a lot of time.If he was waiting hours, why not whittle a spear?
pretty sure he does his post episode video thing live from the stone house.Roland is totally insane. He’s going to stay out there for 500 days just for fun.
When he ate that organ 5 minutes after he killed the ox and then licked his fingers I said just give him the money now.pretty sure he does his post episode video thing live from the stone house.
I'm sure the producers are setting him up to be the class-dope for the year.Love the guy sleeping in a ####ing tarp for 35 days getting upset that rain is coming in. Idiot.
