Why not combine opportunities?
You could almost kill yourself with hypothermia on Extreme Survival ... then hop over to Bar Rescue Season 3 for a good martini. Hmmm ... maybe skip the ice, bartender :-)

Lauren,
A survivalist is bunker buildind,gun hoarding,rice and bean eating,tin foil hat wearing type.It is a term we try to avoid here.The very word is considered an insult to many on this board."Elite survival experts"are men like;Mors Kochanski,Larry Dean Olsen and John Lofty Wisman.They are the Elite through a lifetime of study.Their experience is more than the age bracket you are looking for.And "reallity TV" has ran its course.The networks should try to produce a show that actually teaches some thing.Instead they placate to the lowest denominator.

I hate "reality" TV as well, and there is not much else on lately that I like. Why would anyone with a reasonably stable and good job give it up for a very questionable shot and a questionable fame (or notoriety)?

IMO, while genuine survival experts may choose to do hard-core trips to test technique as well as physical and mental stamina, they will be first to lecture you on rule #1: the best way to handle a survival situation is to avoid getting into one in the first place.
But that makes for lousy TV. Sorry.

Hmmm, my real job has been pretty frustrating lately...
-Blast Didn't you try out for something about 2 years ago? Don't we have a maximum try-out per member?!?  I'm pretty sure my job won't give me time off, so I'm out!

This is the same production company. Last time the deal was $10,000 for ten weeks away from my family and job. Fools, I would have offered them $15,000!  -Blast
