Dude, You're Screwed

This show is a show about a bunch of big army type guys that go and do really extreme things and survive in extreme situations and never even get upset or cry about it because they are so big and tough. It is really extreme. The first episode was a bit bad but if you watch a few episodes then it is less bad. This show is very extreme and is not for the faint of heart. Only big tough men and tough people can watch it. It displays a wide range of survivalist skills and FATAL MISTAKES. It shows the group bonding together in survivalist endeavors but the start is a bit cheesy and the end is a bit cheesy. All of the events in the show are possibly fake and not entirely true. All of the participants have different types of education in survival and stuff including a primitive guy, green hat man, navy otter and royal airplane citizen and a native American.

great show, my only problem is with Jake. while he may be tough as nails, he is a danger to himself, and to others. his competitive side gets the best of him, and as a result, he makes potentially deadly mistakes. His performance in the desert would have cost him his life if the team hadn't stepped in when they did. I also dislike the way he tries to make the other players fail, when in fact, he should be rooting for them to succeed. I hope he gets his priorities straight, and improves as a player, and particularly as a team player. I enjoy learning from these guys, and wish them all well, including Jake. He seems to be a nice guy, just a little too competitive for his own good. I look forward to many more episodes to come

This show is mostly entertaining and has a fun premise, but is totally ruined by one aspect.

The cast consists of accomplished survivalist types who provide some decent commentary while they watch their friend struggle to get out of a particular survival scenario/location and find civilization with 100 hours.

Sounds decent enough. But there is one major exception: Jake Zweig.

Jake is entirely inarticulate, reckless and a flat out jerk. He goes above and beyond to be as abrasive and unpleasant as possible, while adding nothing of substance whatsoever. And the best part? He is by far the worst of all of the survivalists, totally out of shape, and completely out of his league compared to the others' knowledge.

I watched several episodes and enjoyed a lot of what it offered, but I just couldn't stomach him any more.

This show immediately became a favorite of our household to watch. The fun the group has at each others expense even if scripted shows they are genuinely having a great time and this chemistry isn't found often.

The challenges they each get put in are sometimes comical to simply possibly deadly. While we get some humor along the way reality has a quick way of coming back in and reminding you the gravity of the situations when you make a poor choice.

Hopefully as they progress forward they can find new and more interesting challenges to keep them running strong and showing us what it can be like.

This has nothing to do with surviving extreme situations. There were some OK episodes but most of them felt so fake and stupid. Like flying from California to Finland with a chopper... Or saying that if anyones body temperature falls below 96,6 they are thrown out from the challenge but surprisingly it always stops going down after 96,7.
