Les Stroud would be too busy building terrible shelters and freaking out about the bears across the lake from him to kick anyone's ass. He sucks. But Grylls is still a much bigger douche.

I was wondering why there hadn't been any epsidoes in a while.

Agree about knowing it was fake and still liking it. They were increasingly more open about it being staged, as well (i.e. "situations presented to Bear"). I just enjoyed the scenerey more than anything - visually as fantastic as any other show out there - often deep into remote places most of us wouldn't dare venture into.

I like Survivorman, too, but that nature of the show just doesn't have him covering the same amount of ground so you don't quite get the same "tour".

I suspect he'll be back, somewhere. I've seen some of the other "survivor" shows out there, and unsurprisingly they haven't seemed to fair that well. I think it's fairly obvious the success of these two is as much their charisma as anything else.

Never been a fan of the show. Maybe that'll mean there's more room for Mythbusters.

Negged for trying to start an argument over which fake TV show host sucks less.

No big loss. As long as Man, Woman, Wild is still on, I'm happy.
