Hi Paul
I wont start questioning your taste.
If you actually watched the show and dont like it that's perfectly fine for me.

What I dont like in HH approach is he started moving critics well before even watching a single episode and every time he is proven wrong he slightly reset his target under a curtain of other off topic facts.
Let's see last example.
Assertion:
"They get filmed. That's purty obvious."

Explanation and witness (Keith ) that say no. They are not filmed.

now the assertion is "their base camp should be very close"
ok. That could be very true and still they have to film their challenge all alone.

As far as I know that could even be made after the end of the show.
I'm sure they have a contract with a million of terms. You have to provide the scenes for the show. that's all.

Are there mechanics different from true primitive survival? Hell yeah. You would be really childish thinking otherwise.
They talked about the push button and go home syndrome in every season.
They have to obey to hunting, trapping and fishing rules that in a survival situation would not exist.
they could be eliminated without recourse for medical reasons too.
Still the human factor, how everyone make their choices and translate them into actions, is the best part in my opinion  ...and lookin at Cunnuckistan green water too.

I'd prefer not to continue a personal debate and I also do not feel a real need to defend the show so I promise I'll try to refrain and comment specific show facts in future.

HH~:
And all the Kings men could not put Humpty back together again.

Dont have any problem commenting on show or contestants. People do stupid chit for money all over world. Depending how you fare this could one of those.

Marc St Louis:
There's not much TV that is worth watching these days and I don't watch much of it, much prefer reading.  Hardly watch anything made in NA, I find European TV programs to be better than the foolish fluff coming out of Hollywood.  Alone is one of the few that I do watch

Marc St Louis:
Something else my wife and I have wondered.  Why, when one of them catches a fish or small game, they don't use the guts or internal organs they don't plan on eating as bait to catch fish on set lines.  Doesn't make sense to me

I have always wondered the same thing Marc. I figured that out as a kid. Best bait I ever used.
