The other day I was on twitter when one of the people I'm following tweeted about #NakedAndAfraid being "the most caucacious show on tv"- basically something that only crazy white people would do.

Here's the premise: Take two survivalists (male and female) drop them in a jungle/desert/wherever where they have to survive for 21 days naked, and survive off nature. Watched the first episode a couple of days ago and I was hooked....it's like adult version of Survivor without all the boring challenges and make-up. This is one is not for ordinary folks and you basically have to survive in the wild using team work and your wits.
 
It's watchable, but there is no nudity. My gripe is that it's far too tightly edited, which makes it seem disjointed.
 
I watch it every week. Only discovered it a few weeks ago. Laura Zerra is the best looking bird.

I like the fact that you get people who quit or get sick and don't survive the challenges so it is proper reality TV. It's amazing how much weight they lose in 21 days. There is also no prize money so only true survivalists enter it.
 
Some of them aren't the brightest though, like the marine who got sunburnt, guy had no clue about survival, he ran away from an eel and the girl had to catch it - true story.
 
Saw censored, won't watch. Don't see the point of marketing a show about naked people in the title, and then not showing it...
 
Is enjoyable....if you want naked, watch some porn.

Are you so messed up that you want to see dirty, sweaty, bloody, sick people naked?

I want to know what it would be like if we were completely devoid of modern life. So yes. Porn serves a different purpose...
 
This show is really good. Like survivor but not lame. Survivor is like south african camping. This is how survival should be.
 
At least it would be genuine.

How is pixelation not genuine? I am confused.

The only modern life in this program is the camera crew...what do you want? Have you actually watched the program?

If it's truly about survival with nothing, then show everything. Or call it something else.

But I suppose it's ok when they show the titties on them tribal women. Cos, you know, they're beneath everyone else...

I dunno why some of you guys are going on about nudity...Appealing to sexual voyeurs is not the point of the show, and besides the women on there aren't pin ups so I guess if they showed all the nudity some of you would complain about saggy tits.

The whole reality TV genre is aimed at voyeurs.
 
Been watching it since it came out. It's on season 2 atm. It's freaken awesome. Hardcore survival show with NO prize at the end.
 
Watched a few episodes,pointless calling a show Naked and afraid if there is no nudity.

I don't see the point of having a show about naked survival when you censor it. Why not rather just give the girls a bikini and the guys a speedo as it does not offer much protection from the elements.
