Thread: Another TV show is casting

  1. #1

    Default Another TV show is casting

    Email I received:

    Hello,

    My name is Lauren Kalb and I am a casting director for a new extreme survival series on a major cable network. We are looking for elite survival experts who will face situations that require intense, split-second decision-making and instinctual, laser-sharp response. It's not enough to be a weekend warrior - this series requires experience, ingenuity, and determination. Stripped of even the most basic of necessities, participants will rely only upon their bare hands to survive. Seeking men and women, 20's - 40's, who are highly skilled survival experts with legitimate training and experience.

    Please forward this to anyone you know who might fit the bill. To apply, send photos and some of your survival experience to me at laurenk@metalflowersmedia.com.

    Thanks so much!
    Lauren

    You just know that someone is going to put on their application that they beat "Call of Duty" or "Legendary Mode in Halo".

    "with legitimate training and experience" I know one guy that probably won't be on that show, although I still like to watch his youtube stuff from time to time.

    "stripped of all neccesities...".
    Does that mean, like, I can't bring my GPS?
    Will there be a camera crew?
    You mean, like, alone in the wilderness?
    I'm out...I have a reserve copy of Black Ops II coming on the 14th...

    would I fit that bill? Able to make working tools from rocks and bones with nothing more than my hands. Able to make split second decisions (really..??) and highly adaptable.
    Probably.
    Am I interested?
    not even a little bit. I'd rather stay home and bang rocks, fiddle with rat traps, and make clothing from animal skins.

    They'd better watch out for me. I'm a veteran of many Doom wads in the past.

    I've got a call into Cody, cause I want to do a sequel.
    Two follks will parachute naked into a wilderness somewhere...
    I'm gonna call it "Fool Survival".
    I guess I'll have to do a cameo...not good for the ratings, though.
