The Cabin with Bert Kreischer

I laughed quite a bit (the first episode being the funniest) and yes, certain parts were obviously scripted; didn't care much for those segments, but they weren't bad enough to make me turn the program off.

Honestly, thought it could have been done better. More discussions, less activities. Fishing, hot tub, skinning and cooking animals while cracking jokes and then sitting eating, drinking, smoking cigars while telling funny stories and occasionally getting deep would have been better. P.S. Everyone offended by Ms. Pat clearly has never seen her perform before..that's just her; she's like that around everyone. When it's her and other comedians cracking on each other, it's funny, but it can come off mean when "normies" are involved. Bert should've known better than bringing a non-comedian around Ms. Pat.

As a huge fan of 2 Bears 1 Cave, I could not get past the first episode. If you know Bert from the podcasts, you know right off the bat that's a fake show. As soon as he facetimed with his wife, you could see the b.s in the air.

When a show's opening scene begins with Tommy Buns and Coco Diaz, you know it's going to be good. I like this show more than his stand up and is a nice break from stuff like Hurt Bert, etc. It's good for laughs and a lot more. It won't answer the question of 'Why is Burnt Chrysler so fat?' but it will keep you entertained.

As soon as they did the facetime to his wife and said hey I'm doing a show, Tom is here..like she didn't know, I turned it off. Still of fan of 2 bears 1 cave but I hate fake reality shows that say and act such b.s

I read every review. I feel like they are all correct in what they pick out about what works and what utterly fails in this series. Where I digress is in the scoring. The show is cringey, hack, contrived, it lacks the refined delivery of a standup special, or the spontaneity of a podcast and there is no narrative through line. There are silly, sometimes revealing bits, that occasionally give the viewer pause. Overall, it feels thrown together, a tad exploitative (as most reality tv tends to). Potential was there, and sometimes you see glimpses of what it could have been, but altogether it's a not-so-near miss. I suppose how much you hate it depends on how much you like the podcast circuit regulars. If I could give half stars, it would be a 6.5/10.
