    I know its a sin not to love these guys, and i do enjoy the characters, but i think its time for something new...

    Maybe an adventure show, or a movie...?

    THat show, along with 99.9% of other reality shows, should have never been created in teh first place. They all suck

    I only got through about a quarter of one show.
    It's great to see a bunch of guys who made it big but its not doing me any good so I don't watch any of those shows.

    I think its the opposite, it seems like this show is developing a huge following. Whether it lasts or not is another question.

    The show is so pathetically dumb, I'd rather hit my head against a wall for 30min. I feel I could retain more brain cells that way.

    8.6 million people watched it on Wednesday night. I think it will stick around for a while.

    It has definitely ran it's course. I'm sure it will go on for a few more seasons, but to keep the plebeians happy, the scripted story lines will have to get more outrageous each episode/season. I'm sure they will have Uncle Si dancing in a diaper around a campfire doing some ancient Indian ritual soon.

    I leave my TV off most of the time. It seems like people always have their TV on because their paying so much for their cable or satilite that now they feel they have to watch all this crap to get their monies worth.
    I'm ready to go back to antennas. It's the true HD anyhow.

    I also hate not being able to go anywhere without at TV running selling you crap or running CNN.
    My gas station has tv at each pump now. The corner stores. Restaurants everywhere:(

    Shoot your televisions people. It's sucking our brains out watching other people living out their dreams.

    I've never seen it. *Gasp*

    Apparently I've been missing out. I don't think it's on Netflix.

    I have a hard time watching it, because it is painfully obvious how staged it all is.

    Parts are still funny, but I could do without.

    I don't think it has yet...but I believe it will soon. Like Hooker said...they will keep having to get more stupid each season. You can only do so much till it gets completely ignorant.

    The thing is, it's extremely popular among HS and college kids who have never hunted a day in their life.

    I think it has atleast a year or two more of great ratings before it tapers off any.

    I'm stuck home studying tonight. I'm taking a break and having a cold beer and will force myself to watch 30min of this show to see what you are all raving about. I do not think this will change my mind, but I'll give it a shot.

    True. Some of the people I go to school with watch this show and I would've never expected.
