The Starlost: Circuit of Death (1973)
No Chance
Valerie is beautiful and super smart like Teale was (now choking in Earths dead atmosphere), but Canadian network TV in 1973 is not ready for an inter-racial love affair. Garth is 1 for 7 so far. He needs to bring back his blacksmith skills that so entranced Idona.
The Starlost: Gallery of Fear (1973)
Apparition
Daphne is super hot in that blue bathing suit but she's a hologram, so Garth is out of luck this episode.
The Starlost: And Only Man Is Vile (1973)
No luck
Garth falls hard for Lethe, but she's a teenager and way to young for him. Be careful CTV. Dr. Tabor, meanwhile, is attractive and on his side, but he doesn't even know she exists. Hello, writers!
The Starlost: Children of Methuselah (1973)
Desert
Nothing for Garth to sink his teeth into here...they're all kids. He's definitely coming back later though.
The Starlost: The Pisces (1973)
Bingo!
Garth is enticed by a beautiful and super smart Teale. He makes some clumsy moves but she elects to stay with Commander Garoway and go back to the dead earth.
The Starlost: The Goddess Calabra (1973)
Desolation
The parade of beautiful female ark-dwellers hasn't started yet. Garth is struggling.
The Starlost: The Alien Oro (1973)
Garth Nails It!
Finally Garth gets some action...and in no less a place than Oro's UFO. WTG Man!
Naked and Afraid: Easier Said Than Done (2015)
Nubes in the Jungle
Kind of an interesting piece - throw a couple of 'nubes' into the bush and see them struggle - which they do inevitable. But they are positive and some luck and a few little successes. They make a trap...yep, and...it works lol. Exactly a day or so before extraction. I suppose some day the truth will come out but for now I am rather suspicious. Interesting episode for its eccentricity.
Naked and Afraid: Forsaken (2015)
Fortitude
53 year old ex-cop, 23 year old mother. A Recipe for disaster and the episode appears to go in that direction, but let not be too hasty. She has some luck and turns out be be very resourceful and strong. The traps appear to be improving on the show - another success where so many have failed in the past...hopefully the producers are not having a hand in this.
Naked and Afraid: Surthrive (2015)
Caiman
These guys kicked butt, thanks mostly to a very resourceful Beau. Debbie was a very good team player as well, learning from Beau with humility and doing her part of the teamwork. Little drama as both were positive and...well fed for the most part. A very rare trap success is notable in this episode. I would promote Beau to the XL challenge if he wanted it. WTG guys!
Naked and Afraid: Colombian Conflict (2015)
Good Teamwork
Good episode. Dani is smart, resourceful, tough and amazing to me able to thrive as a vegetarian. Charlie is tough and resourceful as well but a little headstrong - which he actually overcame. Because both were positive people they got along and did excellent as a team. Congrats guys! Dani deserves her invite to the XL challenge - for me she podiums as one of the top female survivalists in this series.
Naked and Afraid: Lord of the Rats (2015)
Awesome Survivalist
You want to see one of the best survivalists on the series so far watch Darren in action. Smart, knowledgeable and friendly too I think. Made it look easy - he could probably live there for years. Angela was lucky to have him and her being strong, easy going and in great shape they made a great team; she actually saved him on one occasion, so great partnership. Darren should be promoted to the XL challenge if survival capability is a factor.
Naked and Afraid: Fire on the Mountain (2015)
Teamwork
The guy is a top tier survivalist but realized he had to depend on his neophyte partner if only for mental support. She didn't know much but her humility, a great attitude and fortitude brought her through. If he really did catch that bird in his trap - that is pretty much the first time in four seasons that someone's trap has worked. Frankly I am a little suspicious, but I give it the benefit of the doubt. Awesome teepee as well BTW. I could see Trenton going through to the XL challenge. WTG guys!
Naked and Afraid: Himalayan Hell (2014)
Good Teamwork
Tough girl mentally and a nice personality. She did need a little help physically which she got overall. Aside from a weak moment of advising her to tap out, he came through for her and was a strong survivalist. Also good personality. Well done you two. Best shelter I have seen so far in the series.
Naked and Afraid: Hearts of Darkness (2014)
Anger Triumphant
Tough girl and resourceful but mentally not capable of getting through the stress and being positive. She gave in to her frustrations and pushed away her partner. As a contestant you would pray for someone as capable as her but with a more friendly nature. Congrats to them both for making it - unique in the series in that they did so not sharing the triumph together in their hearts. I think he could have but her anger and dislike could not let it happen.
Naked and Afraid: Argentina Impossible (2014)
Great Team
Having watched all the episodes until now...these two were awesome survivalists. Freezing cold, totally wet environment, he gets a fire going early and always. He wins my medal of fire-making for the series so far. They build a first rate warm shelter which was absolutely needed. They both get along, work together and support each other. They both had deep knowledge. They had a few rough moments but its impossible not to on these challenges. They worked through them - a true team effort. Very impressed.
