So there are all of these Discovery survival shows Based in Alaska, and just a bunch of other general shows based in Alaska. "Ultimate Survival Alaska", "Alaska, The last frontier", " Alaskan", "Alaska", Alaska troopers, Alaska this, Alaska that...

Are people that ignant to buy this shit? We.need a reality show to expose the reality shows.
As someone who lived and really played in Alaska, I watch these shows, and the fags on them, just so I can critique and foil these silly-ass pseudo drama's to myself and my buddies. We find all the little hidden things that expose them as fzke. "ultimate survival Alaska" is right on top with "Alaska, the last frontier" as the biggest frauds on TV.

Ill leave with the most obvious on this weeks episode, for conversation and to notice the bullshit they try to slip by viewers. Tonight's episode the six contestants got dropped off on an island of the Bering Sea. They were "without food and starving" even though they just had a hot meal and plenty of water before they got off the helicopter. They broke into 2 groups of 3 to "salvage food" for "survival" , even though the iditarod champ knows he doesn't need to eat for three days.

So one group takes shelter in a tide flat, looking to build a smoker when they only have 72hours to reach extraction. The bigger problem is the Discovery network had freshly chainsaw-cut beachwood nicely stacked for the, "survival" crew. What a fucking scam. Bear Grylls started this fake "outdoor survival" bullshit, now its gotten out of hand

    The prior episode, 6 guys spent half the day repelling down a novice e 150' rock face when it would have been 10X as fast to walk around, as Discovery was looking for drama points, on an otherwise uneventful show. Of course EVERY Guy had a brain bucket on for safety. I'm sure all the cameramen repelled down that face with all their camera gear too. This show is a fraud like every reality show before it!

    I moved this to the general bored because it has nothing to do with Husky football. If you were even 5% as creative as Race, you would have woven a David Kilpatrick or Wilbur Hooks reference into it.

    Pac 12 Network.... you'll have to watch it online if you also subscribe to the one carrier that agrees with Larry Skott.
