Whats the best tv show in your opinion that has to do with survival, or anything related;
my opinion Dual Survival with Dave Canterbury and Cody Lundin seems to be interesting

I agree Dual Survival gets my vote. That barefooted hippy is nuts!

There was a show with Les Stroud where he showed how to survive specific situations, rather that getting lost with a camera strapped to his chin.
"Survive This!"
Better signal to noise ratio, more information and less hype.

Thinking out loud here, but a great show idea would be to take a survival guy and stick him in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of supplies and a bunch of hot chicks. Not only does he have to survive, but he has to make sure all the girls survive as well. Even better would be to mix the group with a bunch of tough guys that have never been camping before, ever.

I you have ever watched the show, that has happened a couple of times where the guy with the knowledge, was a gal as well, as head and shoulders above the rest with skills needed for survival, but was voted off as a "threat".....showing human nature and greed, along with group dynamics.
One young lady did use her glasses to get fire........
Not only do you have to be able to survive making fire, food, safe water,....leadership skills and just plain smarts comes in handy.
Lot of people blow it off as complete fluff, but in a way it is more of a long term exerise of a group of people of different back grounds, in a situation, with minimal resources.

I generally blow it off as a bunch of fluff.......er....what I mean is........
Let me guess, Finallyme, you are volunteering to be the one guy with the chicks, probably on a deserted island, Right? Plot twist, all the women are over three hundred pounds and you have to gather enough food daily to satisfy their hunger.

I like Man,Woman,Wild.
Ruth is easy on the eyes and Mykel Hawke is a pretty clever guy.
But,what makes the show is when they sometimes argue and fight.
Just like a real couple would in some of those situations.
Love it when Ruth tells Myke"PI$$ off!".lol
There was a show here a while back where a group of people were "surviving" and the most experienced guy did bail out, mostly because he couldn't stand the group not wanting to do anything for them selves.
Just remember these are "TV shows" the be enjoyed or made fun of, with some useful information, some not, .....but there for yourr entertainment no matter how you get it.
