Of all the survival shows to be on tv his show was my favorite. I like Naked and Afraid also. It's just such a extreme survival scenario. I have noticed that now they usually make sure, besides the one personal survival item each, they have a machete. |

I liked Survivor Man because I knew he didn't have a tv crew around to rescue him nor was he sleeping in hotels at the end of the day. The only other "survival" show that I liked that a had tv crew following was Ultimate Survival Alaska but it only made 2 or 3 seasons I think. I don't watch that much tv and when I do and like a show it never lasts.

I liked Survivor Man because I knew he didn't have a tv crew around to rescue him Although he didn't have a TV crew nearby I think he did have a support crew. They kept that low key. Minimally they helped get everything to the trail head and with contacting locals for tips/techniques particular to that environ. I think they also made sure he got home again. There is at least one episode where they came and got him. The desert island one because a typhoon was coming. |
