Bryan P Not much meat to this season. Start to stop each episode covers less than two whole days. Basic recipe for any Bear Grylls show. Walk a few miles, do a climb, do a repel. Get lucky and find a decomposing animal, find a piece to consume for your standard celebrity shock effect. Do a quick 5 minute sit down interview. Truly a "meh" show. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/28/23 Full Review Roxy S This challenge season is not good, we don't want to see the people doing it on their own. The original is much better.
