  1. Haven't watched an episode this season. Doesn't look like I missed anything...
  2. Like having no food. Judging by the comments this is not must see TV. I'll see if its more dramatic next week. Any early predictions on who will stay married?
  3. I wanted Wyatt to win also. Although his kung-fu philosophizing got tiresome. He seemed to be handling the cold better but 6 degrees with constant wind is unbearable. Losing a toe nail probably convinced him the end was drawing near. That said I'm sure he will regret being one contestant away. Had he caught one big fish he'd probably stay. Happy for Alan's wife. Always good to see the look on their faces. Of course what spouse wouldn't be happy with a 500k deposit.
  4. If I had the skills to survive in that situation (which I don't) the loneliness would do me in. Not just the lack of company, but being unable to know what's going on in the world. It would probably do me some good initially but it would also drive me nuts.
  5. Unless he burns his shelter down Wyatt will probably win. He's been getting the most food it seems. Can you imagine if he wins and they take him to a seafood restaurant? That would be cruel. I consider the last 3 standing to be winners...1st 2nd and 3rd place. Its never a total loss the longer they stay the more they make for being on TV. I imagine if I was starving I'd eat a fish with worms but I would cook it until it was crispy.
  6. A woman did win the frozen contest. A short version where contestants are dropped off well into the cold season. Some people can take the worst situation possible and somehow still be optimistic.
  7. Imagine if she won and they disqualified her. But we don't have to worry she can't last much longer.
  8. I don't think the # of drop outs this season is unusual. Typically a 1/3 the participants who aren't up to the challenge drop out in the first 20-30 days. Then accidents take out a participant or two. The last four left are usually hard core, have great attitudes, love the challenge and are at least semi successful procuring calories.
  9. I thought Luke had legs also. He was successful at procuring calories. He had made a cool cabin that looked very sturdy. However the first moment he faced adversity he didn't think twice about tapping out. Other contestants have gutted out a bout and got better.
  10. Her stomach told her to go home. I believe at some point she was only hanging on only to finish her cabin. Its sad I'm sure they tore it down like they usually do. She probably got home and her mom told her sorry honey that was a wrong call.
  11. If you mean the woman who is building a mansion you better lower your expectations. I think it would be cool as a hobby to build a top notch cabin at my leisure with a RV nearby. I was thinking also they should consider building a windbreak on the side of the shelter that faces the brunt of the wind. If standing up is important digging two or three feet deep would have a lot of advantages. Your shelter wouldn't have to be as high.
  12. Almost all of the contestants start off with a lot of brave talk and hype and how they will endure and be the last one standing. I believe positive attitude is the skill and asset the final four bring to the table. The people who really enjoy the experience whatever it brings. I recall one season where they guy tapped out the same day he was dropped off. If you don't have a positive attitude you stop trying to procure food. You stop looking for new ways to procure food. I see one of the woman is expending ginormous amounts of energy on building her cabin. There is some logic to it but every contestant who ignored food to build a cabin always wind up with a calorie deficit they can't over come. The size of her cabin is going to be hard to keep warm which means more firewood. While the weather is decent build a minimal shelter and concentrate on getting and gorging on food as much as possible. I'd also pack on as many pounds as possible prior to going out. These thin people are really on the edge already. I see 5 of the contestants are over 50. This might be the over all oldest group yet. There is something to be said for experience and maturity but I'd trade it for 20 years of youth. I expect my next week a few will drop out. The guy who lost his arrows appears to have youth and a good attitude. I expect he'll go far.
  13. It almost seems unfair because how can you make a decision not only about Ashley, but also about a 13 year old girl who is already going through a difficult age. It could be the farm life would be great for her or she may end up detesting it and her mom and of course this strange man. By his own admission he let the wrong woman go. No one hitched a knot yet.
  14. Just got caught up on this series. A few thoughts about the show.. Of course its a car wreck to have 5 woman competing for one guy. I wonder if they get so caught up in competition, they don't consider two pertinent things. Do they like the farmer and do they like farming? Its entertaining to watch woman compete over a man. I wonder how long lasting or if any of them get married at some point? Hunter needs to be a bit more decisive especially since the woman he likes has a daughter. I wonder a bit about a mom who go's off on this adventure leaving her daughter behind...but she does seem nice. Its seems like Ryan is giving all the woman a taste test. Guess I can't blame him. He needs to thin the herd. Go down to two asap and really have time. Allen is doing the best job of thinning. He gave the woman he let go time but he's right they got awkward. I hope and I don't believe he will pick Cassidy Jo. She is the kind who loves to chase and win but once she has the games a foot elsewhere. She isn't a farmer's wife. Landon seems the most down to earth. He made a good decision going down to four...now he should get down to two also. Then maybe some cat fights will break out...
  15. It would take an hour and 15 minutes to take 15 minutes with each of them. Two and a half hours to spend half hour with each one. Its not going to get easier as they whittle them down. I assume its possible at the end some of them will come up with an empty sack. Even if they settle on one I assume it doesn't mean instant wedding. As a man I'm sure this situation would be very difficult to manage. I bet there not sleeping well, I'm sure the farm work is falling behind. One of them said its not natural to date five at a time...I'm sure its not. I had a hard enough time dating one at a time. Women on the show accept this due to the situation but under most circumstances intolerable. I think it would go to my head. I'm not sure I'd wind up with the best woman for me either.
