Man vs. Wild part 2
Okay, so continuing my post on Man vs. Wild vs. Survivorman.
I have come to the conclusion that MVW is for people who want to watch a good show and aren't particularly interested in learning survival techniques. That ain't a bad thing. I watch Stargate, and I don't really want to travel to other planets. Okay, okay, so I do, but I know it's not real, so it'd be moronic to say that I'd be first in line to go through the Chappa'ai. :-P
Er, back to the subject now. It's okay to watch MVW for enjoyment purposes. Les (the guy from Survivorman) tells you how to actually survive. And that's the only reason I watch it. Les doesn't climb up trees to 'get a better view of the surroundings', because he knows that if he falls and breaks his leg, the adventure is pretty much over, and so is he. He doesn't pour water into a hole in a rock to make a compass and then slurp a little of the water back out of the hole. That is stupid! The compass thing was cool, drinking the water was not. I watched that and thought, "He just finished saying that he had to get down to the bottom of the canyon because he was just about out of water, and now he wasted what was left because anyone can look at the sun to see directions..."
And Bear's accent is entirely too much for me to listen to for an hour.
So, two shows for two purposes. And I'm sure Miss Laura would not watch either one. :-) |
