This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Some things I liked some I did not.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

I haven t seen the other series but judging by the first episodes I'm like: " is this thing for real" A lot of times seems like is following a script. I highly doubt human body can survive and perform tasks in that heat with 300-500 cal a day. How do those people survive for so many days? They lack of basic survival skills. Building shelter hole day without water supply on a 40C heat.. They have lakes/river but can't catch fish..Shane cant make a fire with a flint or catch fish with a basket?Jesus.. who picked those guys and who rated them? And then Dani and Alana they're so lazy.. Not mentioning that first priority should be covering your genitals as they are the most prone to infections and bites etc, especially for women. Chris and Luke started well but then proved 0 skills in hunting and fishing. The only ones that actually do something is EJ and Jeff.And seriously, why do they have to be naked? Even neanderthals had some sort of clothes made of animal skins and plants.

If you liked Naked & Afraid, or seeing someone's butt crack, you will love this show. To be fair they were shooting for 40 days, they can't do a perfect job every day. I guess they did not want to be accused of plagiarizing other "reality" shows so they did what they could to make this show unique. Filming 12 people for 40 days gave them a huge collection of footage of which to take clips from and assemble them into stories. You may think that the plot of a show about survival is find food, drinking water, and shelter. Well, they did some of that, but not much. However it appears that they were only able to find a little bit of food, and went hungry until they started killing the electric eels, which is not what really happened.Rather than make a documentary about this project, they assembled clips to make little stories, such as Shane could not make any friends in his group, ( they started out divided into 4 groups ) He wound up alone in his own camp in a little shelter that couldn't keep the rain out, cold and alone and he prays to God and asks for help, the next day these 2 guys from another team come along and he joins their team and has 2 good friends. They are not afraid and I don't believe they were really naked. In post production they added hundreds of blurs, and there are SO many other things that suggest this show is not on the level, that I assume they must have something to hide ( it sure isn't large breasts ). This could be a good show if they had some competent people edit the footage and replace the narrator with voice overs from the naked people.

I applaud EJ,Jeff and Dani, they are the greatest. The rest of the 11 are selfish, self centered , egotistical and "legends in their own minds"! Dani left the group because she was treated with NO respect and the women in that group, were all jealous of her and knowing she would not follow in their "foot steps" by being a full fledged JERK! As for the two guys in this group, they are also are "legends in their own minds"! EJ & Jeff shared the (2) Eels they caught with the whole group but when the other group caught the Stingray, they did not even offer EJ or Jeff any of it to repay them for the first time EJ & Jeff shared their Eel with that group.Jeff being a good hearted guy fed them all again with another large Eel. That shows who really "shines" in this whole group! I wish Dani had joined EJ & Jeff as there was only (6) days left in the challenge but being the great woman she is, she did not want to burden EJ or Jeff or bring the other groups "drama" into their camp. My choice for perfection in this XL series are: EJ, Jeff & Dani hands down! Dani, you have nothing to hold your head down about, you were "ganged up on" and if I had been there that would never have happened, your great.

The normal Naked and Afraid was good to great - XL is awesome. It's been one of the highlights of 2015 - if not THE best TV show of 2015. This is what I believe to be unscripted and that makes it the best. Better than it's predecessors like Survivor 1-2456, Bear Grylls and mostly all other 'reality' TV.Naked and afraid is random and thoroughly entertaining. The episode with the electric eel was pure joy to watch, I actually laughed out loud.The group dynamic, mixes of sexes and stunning environment of Columbia - for 40 days - makes it a must watch.I'm excited to see what comes next...(side note, i'd love to see them do an Australian version)
