Okay - let me just say that I am not trying to push my vegetarianism on others (but no I do not eat meat because of the "modern" slaughterhouses) --- I just think that meat eater or not, there is no place on national tv to be showing them killing things. We have enough violence in society today -- do we really need this?

And its not really for survival (why is spinning a wheel with gross things to eat considered surviving?) -- like I said, drop them all in the water totally "nekid" and let them REALLY have to survive. Its just a sick game show. There is a reason those "Faces of Death" movies have been banned.

So I am not saying "Let's all be vegetarians and commune with nature" -- that's not me at all (I even buy and cook meat for my family - I just don't choose to eat it). I just don't think they need to be showing it on TV. I have never watched the show and I have no idea who or what is on it (but I have heard that Kimmie or whatever is giving vegetarians a bad name) -- I just know that when I hear the radio personality in the morning (who normally doesn't shudder at anything) shuddering at the thought of what they did to a pig on national tv, it must be bad.

I am not "judging" these people -- they are willing to do anything for a buck...I am judging the tv show for allowing it to go this far for the sake of ratings.
