Hunted Australia

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.

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 concept seems reasonable and maybe the o/s versions are better, but when it's cast, both hunters and hunted, with bogans trying too hard to be taken seriously - e.g. The hunters' favourite line is Go! Go! Go! Which they probably think makes them sound like real action guys but just comes from too much time watching D grade cop shows, there's just no hope. You can tell how desperate the channel is to drag this heap out of the stinking bog, by the relentless attempts at 'encore' episodes promoted by a guy trying to impersonate a zombie, which is an insult to real zombies. I switched channels and found a re-run of the ten hour live count of the recent federal election night, which had me stabbing my eyes with knitting needles at the time - and not the pointy end, the big round buttony end because I wanted to do the job properly - but compared to this deadwood, is 10/10 must-see TV.

This show is kind of fun, but very obviously staged, perhaps even scripted when it comes to the "hunters". The whole thing feels very inauthentic - which makes me ask "why am I watching this? Why do I care?" I haven't seen anything this fake in quite a while.

Just when you think Australian television has plummeted to the depths of entertainment, along comes hunted. I just feel so staged or scripted it's not funny it's so fake.
