All in all, great show. I would rate the top survivors:
Jeff
EJ
Laura
Dani the veg.

Maybe being a veg is an advantage? Definately easier to "catch".

The XLR is bull crap. "Jeff and EJ only caught enough food to feed themselves and no everyone else. This drops their XLR to a 5.2." To me, those guys thrived once they hit Piranha Lake. From that point on, they should have been a 10.

Also, I hate Alana.... Like, i don't even want to look at her. That other tatted chick is in a close 2nd... SUPER CLOSE SECOND! That is all.

The XLR is crap, the only thing that the big group did better was to swim the river rather than paddle it.

It reminded me of Patton Oswalt doing the voting in the dance-off from Starsky and Hutch.

Surprised they shared the cayman. Alana and Chris should get together, they would make a great couple

Begrudgingly shared and only a small piece. Alana tried to refuse but got shut down by Eva and was still chowing down on it later that night when they showed them.

SERIOUSLY. How the hell can the TWO guys that fed everyone else and were the only reason they even made it the same rating based on the last crossing, bearing in mind, although slower, Jeff and EJs mode was much safer given all the hazards.

Alana definitely seems like just a bitchy mean person overall, the other chick, Eva, is nice enough but just a typical drama queen female.

that is true. They were in Piranha infested water, just one of those girls being on her period and thy could of been stripped to the bone. I would much rather be out of the water when crossing.

I wonder if the editing makes some of these situations and reactions much worse than they really are.

I actually think Honora would have been ok with ej and Jeff.

People gave and still give her shite about how she acted to Chris and Luke..but, Chris never convinced me otherwise that he deserved better. He was arrogant, whiney, rude and just comes off as an a-hole. And I think discovery left out a lot of his shite. Then Luke irl is what, ..his job or whatever he does involves some sort of nature therapy, or some kind of hippie shite where he is always supposed to be a source of peace and understanding. He gives up quickly and for a voice of reason, he doesn't speak up much.

So I hope she talks shite to him the entire time. It'll make for fun tv for me.

I do enjoy watching Naked, but after watching "Alone" this show pals in comparison to me now. Also, after hearing some of the stories about how they are not really that "afraid" at all. They have been fed, there's always camera crews right there and really, someone just going camping is more "afraid" than they are. The gunboats at the end were kind of cheesy, too. But, hey, like I said, I still enjoy the show. Just take it with a grain of salt. But as far as looking forward to the next series, "Alone" is what I'm waiting to see again.

i agree a lot of stuff is staged and it's a reality show, but the body transformation they all go through is pretty evident that they are not being fed.

If they are it's not much. EJ lost 73 pounds in 40 days.

I doubt very seriously they are being fed at all, if so, no one would quit and we would hear about it from every one of them. Tho I think some of the "drama" is staged, like whether or not EJ and Jeff were going to make it on the last raft ride to the other side, and whatever "bit" the lady swimming, I think the food and water shortage is real.

He can get rich with a new diet plan. Better than thrive or Advocare.

I still don't get the ratings.

Here are mine.

Jeff/Ej - 9.8

Drama Queen Gang - 6 with Alana, 7.5 without

Yeah, the ratings are BS. The way the show told it, Jeff essentially fed both tribes (3 eels). All I saw the big tribe kill was the caimen the very last day.

It was also Jeff's and EJ's idea to move to another location.
