Neither show would have trouble getting another season. The only reason Survivorman is ending, is because Les has decided to retire. His last episode was pretty brutal, suffering from puking and diahrea the whole time. I think it might be the most miserable I've ever seen him.
Les tries to base his scenarios on situations that ordinary people might find themselves in by accident, largely unprepared. Because hey, if you were totally prepared, then you probably wouldn't be in a survival situation. He does normally always have his multitool, though. His reasoning being that he always carries it on his belt, and thus would always have it with him. Good example for the rest of us, too.
