Naked and Afraid XL

Love XL, its even better than the normal size naked & afraid. But my only problem is that they keep repeating clips again and again and again and again, and that gets SO ANNOYING. I have to literally sit with a remote, fast forwarding the first 5 minutes, then after every break and the rating stuff. I swear they show some events like 5-6 times!! They clearly have so much footage, this show will be a 10/10 if there were no repetitions.

Maybe the show runners are confused about their target audience - they are trying to get the mass audience with more drama and repetitions of dramatic events, which is alienating the actual audience for shows like these. Forget about the people who will never be regular watchers of the show, focus on your existing dedicated audience and give them better quality - no repetitions, focus more on survival stuff, even if parts of it look a bit like a documentary. Some of the hunt scenes could be longer, you don't need a voiceover all the time, give us a real feel of the situation, etc.

Trish the worthless cast member is back. She was mean in season 8 and barely survived. In season 9 she is back to her old ways of laying around making everyone else take care of her. The other cast members are great and show their survival skills. Great show.

This show is socialism at it's very best, and that's not saying much for it. You can see how fast lazy people take advantage of the workers, and it happens every season. My husband and I love this show because every time we hear people talking about how much they would love to have a socialist society, we think of how well it works out with just these small groups of people. There are always lazy people ready to take advantage of worker bees, regardless, love the show, watch every episode.

I applaud EJ,Jeff and Dani, they are the greatest. The rest of the 11 are selfish, self centered , egotistical and "legends in their own minds"! Dani left the group because she was treated with NO respect and the women in that group, were all jealous of her and knowing she would not follow in their "foot steps" by being a full fledged JERK! As for the two guys in this group, they are also are "legends in their own minds"! EJ & Jeff shared the (2) Eels they caught with the whole group but when the other group caught the Stingray, they did not even offer EJ or Jeff any of it to repay them for the first time EJ & Jeff shared their Eel with that group.Jeff being a good hearted guy fed them all again with another large Eel. That shows who really "shines" in this whole group! I wish Dani had joined EJ & Jeff as there was only (6) days left in the challenge but being the great woman she is, she did not want to burden EJ or Jeff or bring the other groups "drama" into their camp. My choice for perfection in this XL series are: EJ, Jeff & Dani hands down! Dani, you have nothing to hold your head down about, you were "ganged up on" and if I had been there that would never have happened, your great.

My husband and I watch the show and we love how you create monsters out of the people who are participates. We always pick out the ones that we love to hate. The number 1 contestant that we loved to hate was Alana (we referred to her as 'Red").

Laura, Luke, Chris, Eva, Alana and especially annoying Danielle we thought were real a**holes in the way that they treated Dani & Shane. They were not leaders. They teamed up on Dani & Shane & Honora and proved that they were a total waste of space, their egos got the better of them and it was really pathetic.

Luke called himself a hippie when he was acting like a real jerk by following in Chris's ways, he was showing no love & he calls himself a counselor?

What they did to Dani was unconscionable.
