Finding the pot in the swamp is just ridiculous. I producers GAVE IT TO THEM, otherwise they could not have boiled water.
Louisiana, huh? Weren't they hit by a big hurricane that kinda messed up everyone's everything? Think that could have sent a pot adrift? :shrug:

I only saw a few minutes of the show, so I have point of reference for my skepticism....

 
Good episode last night. The blonde chick was so inept and such a ##### that it almost seemed staged. Would bang though.

Thought it was a great episode last night. Cassie was miserable. Forrest was was having a difficult time with her when it was just the two of them, then to see how she was when they were a group of 4 had to make him feel better. Russell really told her off at one point.

Boy was she terrible. "I can make fire, no problem." Forrest kills an anteater and she can't make fire. She kept acting like there was plenty of time to do stuff later and wanted to sleep cause she only got an hour last night. I'm sure everyone else slept great restarting the fire that you were supposed to be watching.

She has no people skills at all. Comparing those fish traps was hilarious. Forrest wouldn't even take it out into the water to place it cause it was a waste of time.

She was a raging ##### right from the start. What the hell was she talking about when she said didn't want food yet? There was no rush because she wasn't starving yet. WTF?

She does cleanses all the time. Jeeze. :rolleyes:

The only time she was right was the first day when she thought they should have started the shelter right away when he was exploring for food, it was about 1-1.5 hours that they wasted, even he admitted it would have likely been better to start the shelter first, but after that she was horrible.

:lmao: There's no rush.. Later that day, she says, " I am starving"

Always a better idea to wait until you are starving and exhausted to go hunt for food.

 
I think when people get out there and realize they are in way over their head they get really defensive. She didn't want to admit haw inept she was and put up a wall. If she came clean that she sucked early on and tried to learn something from the people that actually knew what they were doing I bet she could have contributed. Just a smug 24 year old who thinks she knows everything and doesn't want to be told what to do. Hopefully lesson learned. Also probably the hottest contestant so far :)

 
Just watched this episode. Wondering if I can survive the wait until March for the next episode. But I've been in these situations before.

no way. surfer chick from HI was way hotter
I'm taking Cassie on looks alone, personality might be a different story, surfer chick was pretty cool

Alison(Surfer Chick)

Cassie
I'm with DA RAIDERS on this one. I had high hopes for Cassie. She looked like the winner when she got off the boat, but literally, after the first 2-3 hours in that humidity, she looked average. I think she probably looks better made up...but Alison looked much better without make-up (as you see them on the show).

 
Wasn't impressed with the 40 yo at first. But after watching this episode I'd pick her over the annoying 20 something any day.

Please tell me you aren't talking about MANu. She was hideous. For some reason, she looked like she was missing her front teeth. I'll give her credit for toughing it out, despite weighing probably 80 pounds by the end of the thing.

 
I had never watched this before, but caught several during the marathon yesterday. They led up to the new episode. The amazon. Holy ####, no way. They had two people lined up to do it. Some guy, who they didn't even name, showed up and saw the situation and said hell no! Then some guy volunteered. He and this Alabama tree hugger tried it. Mosquitos feasted on them! She made it 4 days and he made it about 6. So, they brought in two people from previous episodes that obviously survived them the whole time. The girl, Laura Zerra http://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/naked-and-afraid/bios/laura-zerra.htm , was really cute and just a badass! The guy was good too. Chopped into his leg with a machete and had to get stitches. Rubbed some dirt on it and carried on. They were in some crocodile and pirhana infested waters, but made it 21 days.

I like the show a lot.

 
Weak to have to bring in old players.

Methinks that they had some help from the producers., because they had already paid to film there and had no show. They glossed over any consumption/finding of water, they caught 1 fish on day 14, it was huge. But they showed only one other attempt to get food otherwise. Those mosquitoes looked insane!! I would not have made it.

 
I've been camping with brutal mosquito action and it sucks even when you have a tent and clothes on. Sleeping naked outside in a mosquito feeding frenzy sounds like absolute hell.

Still the first group really didn't try to do anything about it. They just kept trying to start that fire.

 
I wouldn't ask for a knife, but I'd ask for something that has a sharp edge that I can break off as a knife.

I'd bring a large tent. Its more than just shelter. The tent stakes could be repurposed as knives. The tentpole could be used as a fishing spear. The mesh lining most tents have could be repurposed as a fishing net.

 
For a mosquito heavy area, maybe your item is a beekeeper suit? Lol. Could fish with the helmet netting too.

Same here. We spent a week camping in a mosquito-infested area. At nightfall, they'd come out and it was unlike anything I could have imagined. What they didn't talk about much on the show is the sound—just a constant loud drone of mosquitos. Imagine that annoying sound of a bug buzzing near your ear, then multiply it. We had head nets and we wore fleece and pants even though it was nearly 80 degrees in the evening, and those bastards would still bite through our clothes. The head nets kept them off your face, but they'd still get you on the top of the head and back of the neck. And forget about leaving your tent to pee at night. Getting in and out of the tent=mosquitos in the tent. We just held it till morning. It was brutal.

Seemed like they were getting water from those tree vines, and with the rain as well, I'm guessing water collection just wasn't that difficult or interesting.

Yeah. RAINforest. I can't imagine getting water here was as bad as some of the islands or Africa. The way the girl chowed down a roach on the after-hours follow up show, I don't think she would've had any issue eating honestly. That girl's nuts. I think she could survive just about anywhere. I think her PSR should've been higher than his truthfully. She was much stronger mentally...actually seemed to enjoy it out there, minus the mosquitoes. Hands down, those things would be the worst part about trying to do this.

I remember the droning sound and being surprised by it. I couldn't beleive there were enough Mosquitos to hear them like that. The only thing that seemed to have any repelling effect on them was 100% DEET.
