Alone again.

I really thought Colter was going to have more luck fishing than he did. I’m guessing he did to.

Biko has been fighting the mental fight pretty good but also hasn’t had much luck fishing. Pretty sure he wouldn’t have made it this far without the extra weight he carried on day one.

Theresa really has the right attitude a good shelter but not much to eat. I really thought they were going to pull her instead of Colter. I really enjoy her narrative and just something about her accent.

Seems like Clay has pretty good odds. I’d be surprised if someone else outlasted him. I’ve been surprised before though. Love the float plane he whittled for his son. Very nice.

My hats off to the final four. Pretty sure I couldn’t have lasted that long there. Even with the extra weight I carry.

Still seems like a silly site. Bears everywhere they can’t hunt. Not allowed to take squirrels. Not allowed to fish with live bait. I get the feeling they really don’t want this to go on for very long. Probably think we would get bored watching people actually living off the land.

Still enjoy watching. Nice not to have all the drama

I suspect the chopped off the show before they pulled everyone they are going to pull. Just like the clift hanger serials in the old movies where Buck Rodgers is facing imminent doom at the end of a segment but you have to come back next week to see if he will survive.

Marc St Louis:
The lady bow-hunter didn't last that long.  Big difference between hunting big game for your pleasure and doing it for survival.

Biko's net is a bit on the small side, no wonder he's not catching anything

My wife and I have been watching the Danish Alone.  It is hilarious, and a bit sad.

StickMark:
Looking forward to Theresa's video debrief of the season. Why? Because she is surviving on plants, almost exclusively, and I am curious how much calories she will estimate she ate. She said 1500 k/c one time, and that should be right around her basal metabolic rate.

In other parts of the internet kingdom, some say that this "going in big" like Biko, with the extra fat, is a maybe not in the spirit of the show. Perhaps capping the  BMI might make the show more even. Females that put on 80 pounds might have a real hard time later in life dealing with fat-memory. What athletic person wants to do that? Weight gain, loss and then regain, is hard on the heart, as Colter now knows.

Still amazed at how few actually hunt. The aerial shots of Theresa's place shows similar edge type terrain like Clay's area. She has one of those fancy European primitive bows, Mollegebat?, but she is not shown as really using it. Like Colter said, people get myopic. She gets to making some meat and Clay is in a race.

Pappy:
Yep looking good for Clay right now , but who knows what might happen, guess we will find out Thursday I think this is the last or next to the last show.
