Are we really still living in an era where a non sexual context female nipples have to be censored? The whole show's theme is 'NAKED' and afraid; again non sexual.
If sexual context was REALLY a concern, ALL the nudity (including buttocks) would be censored. Clearly your audience gets it.
Yet, your overtly sensitive producers and the MPAA--do not.
Snowflakes need to stop deciding what is and isn't appropriate, before we all are forced to look at the clouds in the sky because THE WORLD is just TOO MUCH for our poor sensitive minds to handle...
If you want to sign up for extinction, that's fine--but you're not taking the rest of us with you.

I've watched every season of Naked and Afraid, regular and XL. For this second season of XL, I just had to express my complete and utter dissatisfaction with the editors of this show.The major problem I had is that they continuously fake us out in order to build excitement. They will show a person walking and then show a lion walking. The lion is nowhere near the person but they have to heighten the danger aspect artificially. Lame! They must have done this about 100 times this season, I kid you not.They also fake like something major is happening and again show pictures of dangerous animals not even close, and then go to a commercial break. When you come back, it's daylight out and nothing happened. Lame! This is an interesting show and can be very entertaining without the editor's help. I would fire the current editors and bring in people that just show us what's real. Maybe it will be tough to fill an episode with action but at least there will be some integrity. As a fan, I hate being fooled and treated like an idiot.

If you liked Naked & Afraid, or seeing someone's butt crack, you will love this show. To be fair they were shooting for 40 days, they can't do a perfect job every day. I guess they did not want to be accused of plagiarizing other "reality" shows so they did what they could to make this show unique. Filming 12 people for 40 days gave them a huge collection of footage of which to take clips from and assemble them into stories. You may think that the plot of a show about survival is find food, drinking water, and shelter. Well, they did some of that, but not much. However it appears that they were only able to find a little bit of food, and went hungry until they started killing the electric eels, which is not what really happened.Rather than make a documentary about this project, they assembled clips to make little stories, such as Shane could not make any friends in his group, ( they started out divided into 4 groups ) He wound up alone in his own camp in a little shelter that couldn't keep the rain out, cold and alone and he prays to God and asks for help, the next day these 2 guys from another team come along and he joins their team and has 2 good friends. They are not afraid and I don't believe they were really naked. In post production they added hundreds of blurs, and there are SO many other things that suggest this show is not on the level, that I assume they must have something to hide ( it sure isn't large breasts ). This could be a good show if they had some competent people edit the footage and replace the narrator with voice overs from the naked people.

I loved this show more that the Naked and Afraid; in addition, to the hardships of survival in the harshest physical condition, there was also an even bigger challenge of survival in a larger group setting. The show became an intriguing journey of human feelings, emotions, morals. In some cases, the outcomes were unexpected. I particularly enjoyed the final show re-union show. It was shocking to see that the group had not learned any additional human skills. I felt sorry for the 2 outcasts. The individuals that treated them in a most horrible way possible, had no remorse and showed no grownup maturity to learn from the experiences. It was truly horrifying.
