At times the continuity of this show is subject, but overall it is much more satisfying than similar shows like "Survivorman." Bear is informative and provides a very clear and informative narration, and the geography presented in the episodes is daunting and entertaining. The only problem is the obvious presence of the cameraman, diffusing any real stress in the situations Bear faces. I nearly cut my finger off on a serrated Gerber knife earlier and my typing is slightly sub-par this evening because of it. What would Bear do? Probably wrap the wound in tree bark and keep the wound out of still water until it clotted, then build a shelter out of leaves and beaver pelts and raft down the river on conch shells and a hippo skeleton.
