Kar, I think that is exactly why they extracted him. Hopefully they work on him in real life to help him not be so entitled. I would take away all of his privileges. The way he spoke to his parents didnt seem to surprise them.

Yeah, Pamy... that's what I thought as well, about the dad. I hope they make him watch every episode.

I finally got to watch the first episode and my immediate impression is this is a fun original show. Really interesting dynamic in how they have the survivalists and their support groups.

Karuuna, yeah I get that side of it too, but IMHO we aren't talking about a 13 year old, we are talking about an "adult", perhaps a little embarrassment and ramifications of his actions might do him some good. After all, it would be HIS own actions that caused any backlash.

I think there will be sufficient embarrassment.

I dont think that kid will see anything wrong in his behavior. He is used to talking to his parents that way with no repercussions.

Yup, Pamy, and they allow it, so hope they have fun with that.

Not everything can be blamed on parents, just a reminder. And we can't take credit for all the good stuff either. I've known some amazing parents with messed up adult children, and I've known some awful parents whose kids are amazing.

boy that extraction of Ryan. that was such a loser, jos family extracted him because they couldn't take fighting for prized. OK, I can seethat in a way, but it looked more like how they felt was more important, he was not missing them. They had tofight for things for him. Yeah people are cruel but how softa life have you had that you.He should not have brought his selfish family, perhaps he is selfish too, he was having too good a time without them.

Well I was sort of glad it brought to light that the women who burned the letter didn't really have a reason to do so, just essentially wanted to "show off", IMO. I think a lot of people thought this would be a fun survival game, not a stab each other in the back game. That's what I wanted, I don't want to watch cruelty to the campers or stupidity of the families.

Honestly, I felt bad for Ryan, he really thought he could win this and was doing so well. His family were kind of wimps, if you ask me. Clearly he had the more difficult job, and they couldn't hold up their end. I understand they are soft hearted people and didn't like how the game was being played, but you have to bracket that, and go forward if your loved one isn't ready to leave!

I think Sean looks like Elf on the Shelf. Especially with that hair cut LOL Ryan's wife was such a sore loser that she couldnt let it go. Ryan has every right to be super pissed at them!!! I dont like Candace and her husband. I get really bad vibes from them

Another family yanks their loved one because they are suffering too much inside, by watching her suffer in the outdoors? Weird group of folks.

Totally odd, that young lady was just "blackmailing" her Dad. It wouldn't have hurt to go one more night so that the baked potato wasn't lost. Very weird families, contestants seem to understand the game better.

Dipo, yes! I really don't understand the mindset of those *inside* thinking that somehow THEY are suffering more than those who are in the wildnerness. I personally would have reached a deal with my loved one that said I wouldn't extract them unless they asked me to.

When the episode started with them looking to kill animals for food, I stopped watching. I eat meat but I dont like to think about it being killed. I figured I would just come here and read what you all say about the ep

LOL, I didn't like that part either Pamy but nobody killed anything. The closest we came was the guy who went fishing and got 3 fish -- before the hunting challenge.

I just caught up in a binge.. If there ever was another season, the participants would be more devious in terms of looking less strong, but the inside people would also be more devious.

And some of the reasons for extraction didn't make sense to me.
