Naked and Afraid: Apocalypse

Notice, how not a single wild animal has ever been in the same frame as a participant? That's the whole idea. Manufactured drama with "clever" cuts. Not a single dangerous situation, nothing. Just weaklings tapping out instantly and real survivors in misery. Artifical drama, fake crises, questionable appearance of resources. Gimmick.

This is incredibly BORING. The majority of episodes are the same. Hunting/fishing unsuccessful and the environment is so sparse that every team location is basically the same. The episodes are too long- especially with nothing new. Rinse and Repeat! Instead of 8 LONG episodes this can be edited down to 6- 1 hour episodes. Episodes 4,5 and 6 are difficult to watch. I typically love this franchise but this is painful to watch.

Naked and Afraid have a new spin off that simulates the apocalypse. Stupid you say? Well, it gets even dumber. Why would they all be naked? Were all the survivors in the shower when it hit? Are they survivors from a nudists camp? Nope they strip them and drop them off, like always. The premise just doesn't work. This show has always just been watching naked people nearly starve to death. If you have seen one, you have seen them all.

I dunno man. I've liked N&A in other iterations. The Last One Standing. Some of the XLs. There can be something to learn. The survivalists start out pasty and chubby and end up carved out of wood. Here, they're filthy by day two. They're in an area devastated by climate change driven drought, struggling in the way millions of people have to struggle for real, and it's a game. True to the nature of apocalyptic survival, I suppose, it's not a very fun one to watch. People dragging around rusted corrugated metal and drinking dirty puddle water. No thanks. And I swear to god the show superimposed a lion in one scene to make it look closer than it was. Gonna pass on this one; Naked & Afraid has jumped the shark.

It's naked and afraid just in a worse location. Not sure what the bad reviewers thought they was going to watch, one review even says "why are they naked". Read the title mate lol.
