Alone

Post by Shill Jackson »

No not Artie, the TV show.

10 people dropped into the wilderness. Besides clothing, they get to bring 10 items of their choice.
No guns, no compound bows. Wooden recurve is the best they can have.
Last two seasons have been at the Great Slave lake in Northern Canada.
Last guy who won lasted 77 days.
Winner gets half a million.

Anybody watch?

it's annoying that everybody that taps out makes the excuse that they simply miss their girlfriend too much, when in reality they're failing and starving

Naked and afraid is pretty good except when they cast a fat girl
I’m of the mindset that some of the shelters catching fire are people doing it purposely so they don’t have to say they tapped out.
I just started watching season one.
Guy tapped the first day on Vancouver island because he freaked out at the wildlife.
He’s a cop.

We've watched it and enjoyed it. There was one guy in particular that seemed like a really cool guy who ended up winning. I forget where that season was though, and what his name was.

Have you seen the one where they have family members go?

No I haven’t seen that one. I watched 5 & 6, and now watching 7, and I’ve been watching season 1.

They drop one person at the campsite, and the other has to hike in ~10 miles I think. Of course they're not in communication that whole time, so it adds something.

Friend of mine has a cousin on this season.

We've been watching and enjoying it.
