Hunted Australia

I love this show but I think the ending sucks.....they get into the helicopter and fly away....the end... I want to see the winner/ winners congratulated for their effort for serviving 21 days and making it to the extraction point without being caught and I want to see them receive their reward payment at the end..and meet up with the caught contestants.....the way it ends does not feel like the end please change how you end it its awful. I also think the camera man that tags along with each team holds them up and restricts them....just give them all body cams and leave out the camera man keep it real.

The show showed highlights of the day ..australia is far bigger country .i notice with australians are less likely to help runners and seem less trusting .In the UK version . Runners ask people to help and tell them they are being hunted 9/10 helped ...on the uk version it was shown and filmed on the same day and was not pre recorded so the public could phone the hotline if they spotted the hunters and get a reward if it led to a capture. Australian general public has no idea why these people are being chased so when they are aproached the public in AU i found a little rude and stuck up not even stop to ask its like get out of my face attitude ..so how many good samaratons in AU that helped was appauiling ..shows how good and curtious the brittish can be.

As a cat and mouse show, this is fun to watch however it is largely scripted and framed in a disjointed manner. For those with a general awareness of the methodologies, this show is nitpick worthy.

Overall the show feels like a tourism department took an off the shelf show format to show off Victoria.

With a professional vs professional version and more linear editing, this would be a genuinely fun show.

More social programming of things to come, especially in Australia where peoples rights are being stripped away at a record rate. Very fake "reality tv" with probably the same scripted actors you'd see lying in covid body bags having a smoke in between filming.

What is the point of this show seriously?

The only reason I haven't rated this lower is because the gameplay element of the show is entertaining. But all the "drama" that happens in "Hunter HQ" is among the most cringeworthy television you'll ever see.

The highly staged performances in the HQ "Dave! We've just had a ping!" are so obviously scripted that you expect someone from HQ to look out the window, shaking their fist, and saying "I'll get you next time you meddling kids" (a la Scooby Doo).

It isn't even easy to take the game itself seriously when rule changes are implemented (such as freezing one team's bank accounts) to provide the hunters with an unfair advantage.

The premise for this show is well thought out but unfortunately, the execution is not worth tuning into.
