I found myself bored with "Survivorman." I can appreciate what he's doing but I don't think it makes for compelling TV. I find "Man Vs. Wild" a lot of fun. Actually, half the fun is trying to figure out how the hell the crews are filming him, staying out of his way, etc.
After you've watched enough episodes, though, you can pretty much predict certain things:
1) Within the first half hour, there will be at least three references to random people who have been caught in similar precarious situations.
2) He will eat something (either a plant or an animal) and exclaim, "that's as good as the best ____ you've ever hard in your life!"
3) He will take off his shirt. (My wife and gay friends LOVE this one.)
