Special Forces: World's Toughest Test

I absolutely love this show for several reasons. First it takes celebrities, semi-famous or not, and slams them back down to Earth from their cushy lifestyles. Yes this is a highly modified version of the actual special forces, or any military training for that matter, but even a modified version can be brutal. Second you have actual former special forces members leading this program. They understand that the celebs are in no way physically or mentally equipped for the actual training but nevertheless still push them beyond their limits. In a way it humbles the celebs and seeing this transition is quite gratifying. I hope this show continues with over celebs who want to take on the challenge....if they dare.

I wasn't sure what to expecting going into this TV show aside from the fact some celebrities I knew of were going to participate in some sort of military training. The first episode was a bit cheesy, it seemed like they were trying too hard (the Staff, production, and editing) but by the 2nd episode I was hooked.

I binged the rest of the season, and I will say stick it out. It gets REALLY good. The only celebrity I really knew of was Hannah Brown, and this show made me respect her so much. The situations that they are put into are absolutely wild, it's really cool to see how these celebrities perform under the pressure and pain. They're thrown in some of the worst convictions, and can withdraw at any time so watching them stick it out is really amazing.

I would recommend! My fingers are crossed for a season 3.

A very generous 6

The show could be so much better if they had selected people who had a chance to make it through a full interview in an Air Force recruiting office.

I understand it's a "Reality" show, probably more for couch veal types, but for the love of Christmas pudding, pick some people who didn't need to be institutionalized.

The first 45 minutes of the first episode was a drama rama fest of such a waste of time. Some of those people shouldn't even be legally allowed to drive there were so messed up. "I miss my kids...." "I'm a washed up singer...." "I used to act."

We all have issues, and challenges in life, and nobody cares if you are so and so sister, or boo-hoo, I'm not famous anymore. This should have been for the open public of the 10s of millions who didn't get to be an Olympic athlete, actor, or play pro ball. Or related to some celebrity.

These people are losers, and quitters, and a couple who were just bored. The ones that surprised me the most was an Olympic athlete, who quit. Actors are the least impressive, since most mediocre at best drop outs. Anyone can act and pretend, it's why drama and theater are so popular in high school and college. It's fun to pretend!

This could have been far more interesting if it was more challenging, instead of dealing with people who want to quit every 5 minutes on the show. It should have been more boot camp style. Make it harder leadership wise, and offer an internship or money as the incentive, instead of losers quitting in day 3 "Yeah, I'm done, I did what I came here to do." Quitters and losers, that show had no business selecting mental people for such an environment.

It's interesting though. If those loser had done 4 years of the Military when they were younger, they wouldn't have the issues they had as adults. The Military is the best kept secret in the world. Do the show again, and make it for the common person, with award and incentives with more leadership challenges.

I've recently watched SAS Australia season 4. Essentially it's the same concept, celebrities (from Australia) are competing, but they absolutely get the $*!# beat out of them. Of course there's only so much these guys can put anyone through on a made for TV SpecOps training course, but at least there's literal blood, sweat, and (of course) made for TV tears. This version of the popular SAS series makes Americans look like proper babies (which they're not). Yes, it's mildly entertaining and a good foot in the door for the US audience. However I do recommend SAS: Who Dares Wins (UK version, non celebrity) as well as SAS Australia because they're much, much better.

I think this series is great. Yes it gets better as it progresses and the whiny annoying ones are gone. Some of the casting was iffy...I mean Kate Gosselin? Ew. Jamie Lynn Spears? Lol. And a couple others I can't even remember who were gone early I wasn't too disappointed about. But as it gets closer to the end I really enjoy watching and respect the effort put forth by everyone on there. It's an interesting group from a wide range of backgrounds, from athletes to politicians to entertainers to washed-up reality tv "stars", and they all seem to get along really well. The challenges are really intense. Overall it's entertaining and worth a watch!
