Fear Factor

This is a really good show. It's not for people with weak stomachs, though. I'm glad that the television companies have finally gotten the guts to air something like this on TV. The stunts they do and the things they eat (or things that munch on them) are completely shocking. Kudos to the people who think of these stunts!

This series regardless of how one may feel about it should be re-named the gross-out factor.

I've watched it on several occasions and viewed feat that are actually more in tune with having a hard stomach, than in something that actually challenges our fears. for example in the Playmates Edition, one segment had the participants eating strawberries in a case full of flies, most of them , the -playmates swallowed several flies. Other segments has similar feats, one with cockroaches. Now is that sick or what? In others the object is itself to swallow worms, crickets and other insects.

What people are willing to do, for whatever the prize is strictly up to them. I would never try to suppress it. Also if viewers tune in, myself included at times, fine. But call a spade a spade.

So what if it doesnt test there fear its still an awsome show all my friends watch it and so do i . i think its a great show . why are all of you complaining ? so what that its not all about fear what is your aim ? what are you trying to get at by all these comments ? do you want them to change the nam . how about see who can last the longest show ? no i didnt think so. fear factor . the name is inviting . if you dont think its fair dont be a contestaint . as simple as that . now have a great day :)

This show, Fear factor, is without a doubt, a great show, that everyone should watch!

I'd do any of these stunts in a flash! It's such a fantastic show, you never know what's gonna happen, or what kind of thing they have to eat, or stunt to perform!

You've gotta watch it!

I used to watch Fear Factor when they were going for mostly dangerous stunts. Of course, the writers and producers of the show had a hit an all-time low by burying people in innocent animals (like rats and spiders) and making them eat disgusting stuff (I can handle the coagulated blood balls...sort of...but WHY do they have to eat hissing cockroaches, one of my favorite insects?? That's barbaric and cruel, no matter how small or "disgusting" the animal).

The basic idea of the show: Get a group of morons together, and dare them to do stupid stuff. Whoever is left standing at the end of the mess wins (I think) $50,000.

I have since stopped watching this show. It's not about true fear anymore, but about grossing people out.
