Review of Survivorman

Survivorman Annoying Show
3 June 2010
Do not get me wrong, I admire Les for going into the bush for 7 days at a time and surviving on his own. However, I find him truly annoying and at times gaining no information on how to survive in the scenarios he's in. I just finished watching the Alaska episode where he kayaks into a small bay. The only food other than grass that he managed to find and eat was a rotting fish. He basically survived 7 days on only old half eaten fish that he found decaying on a rock. From my perspective, Les needs to focus more on showing the viewers how to find and capture food while in the wild and show less of him complaining about how tired or fatigued or hungry he is, and pointless shot after shot of him wandering around. I also find the sounds he makes when he does eat something tasty super annoying. A show that conquers this show hands down is Man Vs. Wild. Yes I get that Bear Gryls has plenty of help and isn't "surviving" on his own, but its much much more interesting to actually see how to find and capture food as well as build proper shelters, not just laying on the ground all the time complaining about being cold or getting bitten by bugs.
