Watching it now, its pretty good!
I watched the first half-hour. Didn't much like it. I think it'll hurt Ted's ability to serve as an effective spokesman for RKBA. He seemed too weird and too obnoxious.
OTOH, when I had to stop, he had just made a few intelligent observations. Maybe it'll get less obnoxious and more pointed as it goes on.

Not bad. Silly, but not nearly as silly as "High School Popularity Contest" (a.k.a., "Survivor").
Later on in the show, Nuge mellows a little and the vict^H^H^H^Hcontestants start to have a little more fun, even if it is kinda dirty and stressful.

Could you imagine a group of us being on that show?
He'd come after us with the paintball gun and find himself dangling from a net in a tree, or in a tiger pit in the ground!

Wasnt a horrible show. i do hate any of these shows by nature tho. but seeing Nuge break people down to their lowest form was great tho. Interesting premice but dont think it will last. cause unless you put a vegan animal rightist on every show it just wont be as dynamic . It is interesting that all the people are city dwellers. no one with real survival abilities. I mean come on i dont think any of them had seen a 2x4 in their life....
. It is interesting that all the people are city dwellers. no one with real survival abilities. I mean come on i dont think any of them had seen a 2x4 in their life....I thought it was a pretty good show, and I hate reality shows. My observation was how little it effort it took on Ted's part to completely strip away the veneer of civility that all of those people carried with them.
They all strutted onto the ranch thinking they were "the stuff" and within in a couple of hours Ted had demonstrated that none of that matters when the chips are down.
Interesting that Tila made it that far....not bad for a B grade porn star wannabe. "Model" my foot

Hey
somebody claimed here a while ago that Nugent's shooting wasn't any good. What's the truth?

The look on their faces when told they had to sleep in a barn were priceless.
As a little kid we used to beg to sleep down in the barns!

Do some farm chores, skin a hog, archery practice, play some paint ball, sleep in a barn.
Nothin' I haven't done before.
The biggest problem I'd have is putting up with a bunch of whiny back-stabbers and resisting the temptation to punch one of 'em out.

Like any show it was setup to portray a certain image. City folks in the country. No surprise there.
Nothing they did was that tough. Trying sitting in a stand for 6 hours at below zero temps.
While Ted is a vocal supporter of second amendment rights, his ego gets in the way to be an effective spokesperson.
If he had any brains he would turn it down a bit. But he is still trying to live as a teenager and unfortunatly gets the publicity to do so.
After the Osbornes, the shock value of every other word being bleeped out is real old. The normal world doesn't talk like that.
Turned it off after the first hour, yawn, getting sleepy just thinking about it again.

I was thinking of something close. My first thought when he told them to run was to charge him and either spook the horse into throwing him, or yank him off the horse.
Of course, you'd probably never see somebody like most of us on that show. I'm sure that they screen the contestants pretty thoroughly to make sure they get sheep.

The show would suck if he had contestants that could actually DO all of the challenges such as the likes of myself................. man, I'm startin' to sound like Ted....................

If the Nuge's kid had egged my head while I was asleep, he would have been marched inside to his mom. Shermane seems like she wouldn't put up with bad manners from her son. In fact, she seemed the only reasonable human being on the whole show.
Ted is just a showboat. He's not going to change.

Marinetech-
My first thought when he gave them 30 seconds to run was "Why aren't any of them headed for the woodline?" followed by "If it was me I'd be looking for things to throw at Ted. Maybe I'd get lucky and make him drop the gun." The only way to win when playing cat and mouse is to not be the mouse.
And if that wisenheimer Rocco egged me like that, he'd be going head first into the swamp.

I was thinking that at first, but he had a tac-sling on the paintball gun. Even if he did drop it. he could just reel it back in like the old cavalry troops did with lanyards. Guess he thought that one out.

Okay... one Nuge with a paintball gun... how many contestants are there?
Don't need that many, just one to take the paintball gun away from the Nuge, and the others to keep and hold him down. After that, you can hogtie him, and walk the horse (with tied Nuge) back to the house and help Shermane make lunch.
