Discovery Channel has struck gold again with their show Survivorman.  This is one of Bill and mine favorite shows out there.  It is about Les Stroud he gets dropped off in all sorts of situations that he a week to find his way out of.  He is left with a few supplies that normal people would have if they were lost in the wilderness.  He has no crew and has 50 lbs of camera equipment to log around too.  He shows you how to survive in the snow, desert, jungle, and a lot of other places.  I like Survivorman better than Man vs Wild, because Les is so much more believable (especially since the reports that Bear –the host of Man Vs. Wild– often spent the night in hotels instead of out in the wild).  He doesn’t take the chances that Bear does, and I find Les much more down to earth and likable.  The chances of you ever needing this information are small.  However, it is a very interesting show to watch.  I cannot wait till the new season comes out!

This show is on over at Discovery Channel. It is about a family who has two sets of multiples. They actually have a set of 6 year old twins and I think the sextuplets are three now. This show is about their life. I love it, because you get to see the real life of them. You see the fights. You see the frustration Kate feels with the kids everyday. You hear the noise. I complain about have two kids two different ages. I cannot imagine having 8 under the age of 8. Can you?

This is another reality TV show that I love! The season is over, but you can catch all of their reruns on the Discovery Channel. You would think watching fishing would be boring. However, it is anything but! Each week I sat on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen. Would anybody get hurt? How would the greenhorns handle the brutality of the Bering Sea?

My two favorite boats have to be the Northwestern and the Cornelia Marie. The deckhands on those boats make it interesting to watch. You truly care what happens to these men.

If this is not a show you have seen, make a point to watch at least one episode. It will make you realize that your job isn’t so bad.
