June 20, 20241 yr Apparently the new season started last Thursday, anyone catch it? Episode 2 at 7 tonight.
June 20, 20241 yr I watched the base camp episode. Supposed to be the coldest location ever and lots of grizzlies. This group seems like they may make it more interesting and not play the starving game. The arctic season was so good, so maybe we'll get something similar. Edited June 20, 20241 yr by kevwun
June 21, 20241 yr Ho lee fuk, that first tap was amazing. I’m fairly certain a drunk Surlster couldn’t have done that.
June 22, 20241 yr Almost through ep 1. I took a break to post on here about how annoying Creek chick is. I read your post and... 30 seconds later. Wow. What a way to go. Speaking of your post, I did something sort of similar. I got really drunk one night while in college Decided to walk home - 20 miles. Yes, I was really drunk. I climbed up a hill to take a piss in peace. On the way down I fell, and my hand landed on a metal spike. Went straight through and out the back. Good times.

June 22, 20241 yr Also, the dude losing his line & hooks because a random branch snagged his backpack zipper just enough is rather questionable. Maybe pack the small stuff in the middle, bro.

June 23, 20241 yr I always thought shooting a beaver in the water was a bad kill. Isn't it likely that the animal will dive into its den? Also, curious if anyone knows about the liability this show has to provide. I'm sure there are a multitude of waivers to sign; however, would that carry weight if, say, a dude gets mauled by a bear and dies before production can assist? Can a show really say, "Sign this. If you die, you die."?
June 23, 20241 yr So are they not allowed to bring a modern compound hunting bow? Just a bare bow? My son is a serious bow hunter and uses a pretty complex rig with different gimbals, sights, counterweights, etc.

I just finished the first episode. This season is shaping up to be really good. All the contestants seem capable, and a few don't really have family to miss so they should be able to last a long time in isolation. The guy from Labrador talking about wanting to move his family out of "fast paced" life in that tiny fishing village made me laugh. He and I definitely have different opinions on fast paced living.
July 20, 20241 yr Tonight was a pretty damn good episode until they fucked it all up with that chick’s airtime.
July 20, 20241 yr Hypothetically if I were to go back and watch some of this show, which seasons are the best ones? I probably don’t have time to watch them all…
July 20, 20241 yr @kevwun liked one of them, but I really wouldn’t binge this show. Shit is repetitive as hell, find something better.

July 21, 20241 yr I hope the moose guy isn’t the one medically removed from the game leaving a wasted 1000 lb moose behind. He seemed to want to kill it out of pride more than game strategery.

July 21, 20241 yr Hopefully, they will allow him to keep the head and cape for taxidermy purposes, even if he doesn't win. Very impressive kill. No doubt that was a hell of a job to take it down with those old timey bows. I hope he’s not the one extracted as he seems to be a rare person who is wired for that situation. He’s not entangled in relationships at home, he thrives on the isolation, and he was raised in what sounds like an off grid no electricity cultish home. I like his rendering and storage of moose fat; he knows that’s the key to survival in that environment. That cape and hide will be very warm in his shelter.
July 21, 20241 yr I guess he had to take advantage of that opportunity when it presented itself, but taking that moose while the temps were still in the 40s and 50s is really risky for all of that meat. Also glad that the chick is gone.
July 21, 20241 yr I figured he was going to break it way down and smoke it go slow down decay loss. Looks like small mammals will eat most of it.
July 21, 20241 yr I’m watching alone Australia and they’re not doing good. They’re almost as wussy as the limeys.
July 27, 20241 yr Watching these jabronis lose a fish to showboating will never cease to amaze. They catch a fish that will give them a couple days protein and then quit. They need fat and they need to be catching and smoking a shitpile of fish a day.Appears the way to bailHonorably is simply quit shitting. “I haven’t shit in 38 days! I wonder if that’s an issue?”
July 28, 20241 yr Author sorry if already posted but is there a streaming platform showing the new season or do you need the history channel?
July 28, 20241 yr Since YouTube lost a&e and its properties I watch it on Philo which is only $25 a month. I’m probably dropping YouTubers and living with an antenna, Philo, and all my apps.So I watch all the history shows on Philo. There are commercials but it’s easy; hit FF then play and it skips the whole break.
August 2, 20241 yr Tonight was pretty goddamn good, especially the marten doing his fucking high-wire act to steal ol’ boy’s food.
August 2, 20241 yr That was a real bad idea because it was setup exactly like marten traps are. They like running on polls towards bait.

Do these guys not watch Mountain Men? Pretty strong looking final four, although we know that things can change in an instant. I knew WV game warden had no shot.
August 10, 20241 yr How many days did ol’ boy leave that big-ass pike on the stringer? Cache looked cool though.
August 17, 20241 yr They were so worried about bears and martens stealing their food they forgot about fucking mice and rats eating their stores. Hmm a huge worm in my burbot fish. Hmmm I’ll just eat around it. Nope.
August 26, 20241 yr For whatever reason, appears they’re ending it all next week in 3 hours. No idea why they can’t split it.
August 26, 20241 yr I’m fine with that. I like this show best bingeing it. I just skip thru the entertainment parts. Don’t care about moose bass, or game show shit, or singing. It’s a better show when they can fish and hunt with some measure of success. Those are huge fish they’re dragging out of the river.
August 26, 20241 yr We used to catch tons of Northern Pike when we had our cabin in northern Minnesota. Never ate a single one of them. They have a weird bone structure that makes them tough to fillet. Of course, I was never starving either.....
August 30, 20241 yr Made it through the first 90 minutes, that was a goddamn slog. Really wish they split this shit to next week, but now I’m committed.
August 30, 20241 yr Well, I made it to the end. That was a lot of goddamn TV, even with the FF button.
September 2, 20241 yr On 8/30/2024 at 2:19 AM, shadow_operative2.0 said: Well, I made it to the end. That was a lot of goddamn TV, even with the FF button. Were you watching on the History Channel app? 10 mins of content, then 3 mins of ads. At least I eventually had the option to watch 30 seconds ads by the final 2 episodes. The guy that won wasn't even done. I think he'd still be there if he didn't win. I mean, who goes through that and immediately asks if there is going to be an All Star version he can return for?
September 2, 20241 yr No, I DVR’d both episodes last Thursday night. Even with FF for commercials, that was like a 2+hour movie.
February 16Feb 16 Watched Alone Australia and thought the winner was determined by which person the medical team visited first. Seemed like rigged outcome because the “winner” was probably in just as bad shape or worse.
