A very good show. Not as much backstabbing. Very challenging. Well worth the watch and am hoping it returns.

No Boundaries is a great show, but it's weird how the leader just gets to choose who to evict w/out any voting.... wouldn't it make sense for everyone to just kiss up to the leader? I did find it clever how they rank everyone though, very interesting, was surprised that the Asian guy got leader, I wonder how he'll do.

Re-named thread title as there was no other thread for the show.

Also added it to the TV times listing.

All I can say is...I am still mad it was cancelled originally and extremely disappointed that I STILL can't watch it.

Ok - for those that have no idea about the show (like me - and I don't get OLN anyways....)

from this page : http://www.noboundariestv.com/week0/preshow1.asp

Guided by extreme sports champion Troy Hartman ("Senseless Acts of Video") as the show's host, these 15 brave souls will travel over 2,000 miles through spectacular wilderness and breathtaking scenery on an empowering 30-day journey about teamwork, leadership and adventure. Ranging in age from 19 to 53 and from varying walks of life, they must instantly band together, rely on one another and work swiftly towards a common goal.

Kicking off on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, the expedition will make its way north across some of North America¹s most rugged terrain to the picturesque vistas of the Yukon and into the Arctic Circle. Sometimes the group will travel by fairly conventional means, such as commercial fishing boat, seaplane, racing yacht or llama. Other days, it will not be so easy as they rock climb, canoe along raging interior waterways, traverse fast-moving river waters on slippery logs, rappel down jagged cliffs into canyon gorges, mountain bike, cross vast river canyons suspended by cables, kayak above the tree line among alpine glaciers, river raft through treacherous rapids, navigate old mining tunnels, ice climb, hike along the ocean coastline and bushwhack through dense forests.

Every 48 hours, the group will designate a new leader. In addition to guiding the team through the day¹s amazing travels, the man or woman in charge must make the difficult decision of what one person will not continue on the expedition. Ultimately, only the most resourceful leader will prevail to claim the Grand Prize of $100,000 and a Ford Explorer Sport Trac.


there is more on the site.

Show looks to be on Mondays and 8 & 11 pm and Sundays at 2pm each week.

Seems like no one is posting on this show this time. I'm one of those that started watching it the first go around, but for those of us in the USA, the show was cancelled before it was even half-way complete.

I love this show. The challenges are incredible and I'm amazed at the perseverence of some of these folks.

The alliances are interesting to watch and now that we are getting closer to the end, I'm getting a bit nervous about how it will all turn out.

I've chosen not to read back about the posts from our Canadian friends that finished the series the first time around, so as not to be spoiled.

The last two weeks the show did a great job editing. Last week everything pointed to John or someone else being removed, nothing hinted as to Kirsten leaving, then she was removed. Last night, there was barely a hint that they were going to removed John. It looked to be Ina or Eli, except we know they are in alliances, so they hinted strongly that Kelly was on her last leg. Barely a mention of John, and then suddenly it was John that was removed. Clever editing.

I'm still curious about Matt giving Ina the stove fuel. Was it a guise to lead everyone on to think she was safe? Does he really want her there in the end? That girl is strong and has incredible skills, but there is something irritating about her. I can't imagine they want her to be there in the end.

Keep watching Demeter. It's good.

I wish that'd do another No Boundries but I guess that's unlikely. I thought this was a great show and can't understand why it didn't do better and got pulled south of the border.

I've been watching this show and LOVE IT! It's really getting exciting, oooh, it's on tonight!

I am truly amazed by the stamina of these people. This is no amazing race, no whiners here, you do it and that's it. They've had such hard challenges, these people are physically fit, scared of nothing it seems.

It was sad to see John go last week and yeah, they leave us with no clue. I couldn't believe he shaved his head, kinda dumb when it's so cold huh...

Let's post our thoughts tomorrow about tonight's show...

Wow, what a good show last nigt. No one got booted since they won their reward challenge. Interesting how this group wants to keep this game "clean" and I think they're doing a pretty good job of it. Compare this group to survivor, in survivor, EVERYONE is so cutthroat, this group seems to cringe at the thought of playing dirty at all. They're a very close group. I see the men and women are sort of teaming up. Ina did the "right" thing and Kelly is now leader. I like her but she definitely looks tired. I think that cute guy will win, oh boy, I'm so bad w/ names, he's the most fit IMO, he's the cute dark haired guy.

I think they "want" to play it clean, but as it gets closer to the wire, the money becomes tempting.

Laura, I'm thinking you are speaking about Eli (he's the one with the dimples). The shocker would be if it ended up being Kelly or Stephanie, but I don't see that happening.

I also really like this show. I started watching it in March when I was writing my dissertation, and was very disappointed that it was cancelled.

What a delight to find it on the Outdoor Life Network. I didn't even know that I HAD the Outdoor Life Network...boy, do they show lots of Yachting.

This is the best reality show out there. I think that Kelly will either boot Ina or Eli. Can't wait for next weeks episode.

Demeter

Tuesday, December 10, 2002 - 01:55 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Yeah! Ina is gone. I liked her in the beginning because she seems like such a strong person, but in the end, I didn't care for her character traits.

I have no problem with her having an alliance and my guess is that the others didn't either. The problem was her lying and manipulations in a way that attempted to make others look bad.

In the end, she didn't get it. She was focused on saying Kelly "isn't thinking about if she kicks me out, she's gone". I think Kelly did think about it and for her, the $100,000 wasn't worth being with someone who says trust me, but isn't trustworthy.

Yup, goodbye Ina. She needed to go. This week's show was even better IMO. They had such great teamwork. I really like Kelly and she definitely did the right thing getting rid of Ina.

I was so disappointed that Matt got booted.... looks like it could be one of the girls that wins... I'd be happy if either Kelly or Stephanie won, they're both very strong.

Demeter

Wednesday, December 18, 2002 - 06:32 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
I can't imagine one of the girls actually winning, but I hope so!

Allen and Eli have both been rather condescending and arrogant at times, so at this point I'm not exactly excited about either of them winning. Of the two, I suppose Allen may be a bit more athletic, but also quite controlling at times.

OH MY GOD! Now that was a great finale. Kelly rocked and I'm very happy she won. What a fantastic show, I hope they have a no boundaries 2, so many people who love reality shows who don't have OLN have so missed out. One of the best reality shows out there IMO. Bravo Kelly!

I loved the endgame....the last challenge! A great combination of strategy, endurance, and brainpower.

I would have never have picked Kelly as the winner when the game started. This show had SO many variables that I really think that the only way to play it was to play "clean". I think that the team members really did bond.

What a variety of challenges and awesome scenery!

I hope that a network will pick this one up...I mean a major network. I don't think that everyone gets OLN on cable.

AWESOME finale!
