    Jim is the crazy religious nut right.

    This show isnt doing it for me, It just does not have that spark, to me, that made the first one great.

    Man what. He has mentioned religion a couple of times. I don't think being religious makes you a crazy religious nut.

    Man I really hope they don't bring in Jim next time people show up. That could have been a disaster.

    And really? Letting soup go to waste because you're a stupid ass and you don't know how to build a proper cellar and it's not a big deal? God I hate this bitch already.

    Yeah she was kind of stupid. That was a lot of food to just waste like that.

    I mean yeah they aren't in any real danger but they can still go without food for a while.

    Also it was silly of them to go into that building that was obviously recently inhabited at the end like that

    They're still pretty clueless, in my opinion they should have brought with them another dude only because the two women were busy pushing their carts away and there was only Jim there vs 3 other guys.

    They're not completely out of food but they're doing a terrible job catching food for themselves so far. I would have honestly kicked her out for that. When she introduced herself as someone who speaks so boldly and doesn't mind calling people out for putting on a face I knew she was going to be trouble.

    I don't remember his name but she's going to be like that old mechanic from the previous season, the one that constantly argued with people.

    I don't even understand how she thought digging that tiny of a hole and then just covering with a bit of metal was going to work.

    *digs for 2 feet* "Wow that was a lot of work, welp I'm done!"

    I get the feeling she only wants to do things her way, and yeah just doesn't want to ever ask for help. I know that if I did I wouldn't have dug a 10 foot deep hole without assistance.

    EDIT: Well I could, it would just take me days and days to do it. Not 15 minutes like what she was thinking.

    He was but he also had a shit attitude. I am glad this time around that there's not so much generosity and little they gave bit them in the ass immediately afterwards.

    see, next time they do one of these shows they need to have a guy like R. Lee Ermy on the squad, some old salty bastard who's tough as old boots and knows his shit.

    or some super-hardcore ex-spec-ops guy who makes everyone else look like a bunch of fruits.

    Get Les Stroud. He has to lug around his own camera equipment unlike bear. And he does the smart things you are supposed to do. not "oh look at me do this stupid shit you should never do"

    He had an attitude cause he was surrounded by idiots who had no appreciation for the situation they were in.

    I'm just sayin Buttcleft that I don't think that his temper helped him out. He had a clue, but I don't think treating people the way he did was the right thing to do.

    Maybe I'm remembering it differently than you did because my memory of last season is not that great.

    EDIT: I hated the drama that it brought up. It is a reality show I know but I was hoping that the Discovery Channel wouldn't try to pull an MTV here and just have a show where people threw fits all the time, so I didn't like Mike a whole lot.

    The pepper spray and potential cattle prodding has already made this season far better than the first. It will be hard to top Joey's crazy "this is my city and I'm going to save it" thing at the end of the first season , though

    I get how the producers can't hire random gangs to terrorize the colonists.

    But I don't see anything wrong with blowing up a random building a couple down from where they're staying. Put the fear of god and nitro in their souls.

    Blame it on ... something apocalypse related.

    Also: really glad I saw this tread! I had forgotten this show is getting a second season. Enjoyed the first one quite a lot. The old guy with the crazy hair was the best.

    And if, like me, you missed the episodes so far, Discovery seems to have them on their website in full.

    bear gryll's show is more entertaining than survivorman.

    there.

    i said it.

    i don't care if some of the stuff he does is staged.

    at least he's not moaning aboot how hungry he is in some shitty pine-bough lean-to for an hour. GREAT TELEVISION.

    no

    he doesn't

    survival implies conflict

    he just spends a few minutes in front of the camera and then when it cuts he grabs a zima
