Hunted

This is genuinely both interesting and fun. I've never watched more that maybe 2 or 3 episodes of any reality show, but I just micro-binged the first three. Can't wait for more, and how the heck do I sign up for next season?!?

Part of the fun is watching people make obvious mistakes... I mean, how is it not obvious that you shouldn't just meander down any streets if you don't have to or spend the night at your best friends' house?

Also fun to see the fugitives struggle to figure out how their trackers repeatedly get close or find them even when they've been extra careful, or try to come up with ways of getting around, communicating with friends and relatives, eating, bathing or finding places to sleep with the minescule budget they get - $500 for a whole month, although they can accept non-monetary help or work in exchange for stuff - without being seen by those who might have seen a wanted posting or a camera the trackers might be looking for them through.

I wanna do it! Sign me and my best fried of 21 years up, CBS!

It's a shame there's only one season. I watched this when it was on T.V. Recently i was trying to remember what it was called to maybe watch it again. It's a fun show! We've all wondered what it would be like to be on the run... how well we'd do. So the shows a great concept and well executed. That being said, it's a show. So of course it's not gonna be as crazy as the real thing. In the show they can't break the law, which makes sense and they also of course have camera crews with them and mics on etc. so it's not like they can just steal cars and rob convenience stores and stuff actual fugitives might do.

It feels insulting that the dictators of this show consider the general public so oblivious to buy into this, too many errors that give away that the show is staged and fake. There is just nothing 'reality' about it, when the so called contestants who have a good chance of winning, are being forced by the movie makers to make supportable mistakes that they would have never made if the decision was actually left up to them. for example, a women offers the 2 hunted guys her kayak and they agree that it is a great idea, then somehow the detectives find old google searches where these guys looked up kayaks and fully concentrate on searching for a kayak on a lake even with a helicopter, although the idea just came up and they could not have know anything about it. the next part are 2 girls who successfully hide out for 2 weeks and knowing about all the cameras they suddenly decide to go on a camera infested highway to expose them self to a Tacco Bell camera, and if that's not fake enough they now decide to eat their Tacco's in the parking lot just waiting until the hunters get them. OMG

100% real. Anyone doubting the authenticity of it needs to read the rules and learn some basic film production. Nothing fake about it at all. The shows contestants have signed release forms allowing the hunters to gain access to everything without a warrant or any court order as such would be needed in real life. The camera crews aren't filming live either. It's edited back into the show to give a viewer the perspective of the fugitives but they aren't actually there when the hunters are looking for them. There's a lot that goes into a TV show and those with basic knowledge know this show is real and how it's being filmed. The rest of the show is pretty self explanatory. It reminds me of Amazing Race but so much better and keeps you on the edge of your seat!

Fantastic reality TV, there should be more like this!
