Largados e Pelados: A Competição

I'm not really into reality shows. Not my jam.

That said, Naked and Afraid XL was one of my favourite shows. It wasn't like other reality shows, this one was about survival and felt real. Loved the struggle, the relationships, the desperation, the brilliance of survivalists in the most difficult of situations. Its brings out the best in people sometimes, and the worst at times. Can you make it in a hostile wilderness naked for 40 or 60 days? Your best chance to do so is to help each other. Like early mankind. It wasn't a reality game show at all, it was a reality documentary.

Now they have ruined that by making it into a gimmicky reality competition where you need to backstab each other for a chance to win some money. Welcome to the game show business guys. Yuck. Win a race, get free food. Make a trap for no reason, you get a bow or a knife or a hide. And tonnes of melodrama. I guess this show is aimed at the reality show audience, its not about survival.

Please bring NAA:XL back. Make it more real, not less.

I had my fill of Jeff ages ago. If I never saw him on another episode I'd be happy. He likes to brag and pat himself on the back entirely too much. He brought all the negatively on himself early on in this last competition. Everyone whining about how unfairly he's been treated should go on the show themselves with him and then we will see where the love is.

I sincerely hope he loses this competition. If he was never on another episode it'd be a good thing in my book. Stop feeling sorry for him, he doesn't deserve it I hope jeff loses, I hope he loses, I hope he loses, I hope he loses, I hope Jeff loses.

I have been an advid watcher of Naked and Afraid for years I am so appalled at the way the show has enabled the senseless bullying of Jeff and the unfair way the producers wrote rules and haven't seen to it that they were followed. The only player following the rules is Jeff. It is sickening to see how Matt has been manipulating everyone one of his little bully buddies into doing his dirty work and they are all too stupid to realize that Jeff is really the only person that isn't phoney. I am so relieved that when I check this web site I found many other fans that feel just like I do that the show is not fun to watch anymore due to the bullying that is going on. It's a platform for bullying 101!!

Watched the first 4 episodes. It's turning into a mob mentality against Jeff. Jeff never asks for or expects anything free, but a trade so there's benefit all around.

And so far Jeff has been the most fair and square one, and least back biting of them all.

And what have I seen Waz do? No fishing,hunting, scavenging or foraging. Just Laying on his fat ass convincing his partner to talk Jeff's partner into tapping out. Waz is slimy devious and he was the most self righteous one to start with.

Naked and afraid has been one of my favorite shows because there was so little low character deviousness to it.

This new format has really brought out the duplicitous self righteous judgemental snake in the grass, pot calling the kettle black, drama that I see enough in real life, thank you.

I'm only watching it until Jeff wins or he's gone. He's the only one with REAL integrity.

How is Jeff the only one who understands that this is ultimately an individual competition? Who in their right mind thinks it's a good idea to help their competitor achieve victory? Apparently, 11/12ths of these participants.

This is a GAME with one winner and eleven losers. It's not 'Naked and Afraid' where people work together achieve a common goal.

It makes zero sense to make sacrifices to help others survive. No one will die. If they can't hack it, they tap and the individual is one step closer to winning the GAME.

I don't particularly like Jeff. He could use a lesson in humility but he's the only one who gets it.
