I Survived Bear Grylls (2023– ) User Reviews

Terrible

[The_nibs · 1/10 · 20 June 2023]

It's like if you hired Bear Grylls to host a children's party. There are several extremely obnoxious contestants, a weird tag along host, combined with obstacle courses that literally children could do. This is a far cry from his previous undertakings, hell even the hand holding he did with celebrities was better than this garbage, at least then they actually went somewhere, like Alaska, instead of cheaply simulating "hostile environments". And by hostile environments I of course mean a snow machine on a farm in Massachusetts... Do not waste your time, you'd have more fun getting a colonoscopy.

How the mighty have fallen.

C'mon Bear.

I love you and your other shows but c'mon Bear, how could you get involved with this show? Terrible is the only word I can think of. I only could get through the first show, as I can't possibly imagine the other shows being any better. Low production value, uninteresting games, a not very funny comedian (sorry Mr comedian but true, at least on this show), and a cheesy mustache on Bear to top it off. It got 2 stars for me instead of 1 only because Bear was on the show and because of a funny crush one of the contestants had on Bear. But please, please, cut your losses, cancel the show and save everyone from an hour of their life they can't get back.

What?

What is this? Survivor or X-Factor? Either way it's dumb, and has nothing to do with surviving in the real world. I guess Bear vs Real World Road Rules is next... Oh wow need another 400 characters I guess, so here's an Irish proverb as written by chat gpt:

"An té a bhíos fial roimhe, bíos fial ina diaidh." An té a bhíos fial roimhe, bíos fial ina diaidh. Is iomaí fear a thug a chuid roimhe, agus thug sé níos mó ina dhiaidh

Still not enough? Ok, tell me how chugging animal urin (which dehydrates you more) or traversing a rope with a fish in your mouth, helps you survive longer in the wild? The fact that it is sponsored by Mountain Dew tells you everything you need to know.

Boy Scouts Camporee on steroids

This is not your average game show. It is a combination of shows like Tough as Nails and the American Ninja Warrior. But unlike those two shows whose participants need to have the professional skills, physical strength & agility, the contestants are ordinary people who have to undergo challenges that simulates survival conditions that Bear experienced in the wild especially eating the wildest things. Someone who has had experience in Boy Scouts Camporee will find this show fun as It showcases some merit badge skills that one learns in Scouting of which Bear is the Chief of Scouts in the UK. It is indeed about "mind over matter" that kids & their family will be entertained to watch.
