Fear Factor - ahhhh the show where anything could happen. Although the things the contestants are required to do are insane, there is actually a point to it all. It's to see what people limits/weaknesses are. And of course it is hosted by Joe Rogan which makes for easy viewing. The show 'scare tactics' coming soon to tv3 plays more on fear than fear factor does, so it should be interesting to see also.
What do you guys think about fear factor - be honest please....

Fear Factor is what reality TV is meant to be about, mindless entertainment. I am happy to support that.

it's funny to see how far people will go to win 50 thousand dollars. 'going straight' is about as real as 'the osbournes'

It's actually only $10,000. I think the difference is that most of the contestants aren't very hot or very good at the challenges. It's painful watching. And what it is it about eels? They seem to use them every week...

yeah i know it's 10 thousand for going straight, but it's 50 thousand for fear factor

for some reason i am drawn to the tv when i see people eating live bugs and almost puking. whether or not that makes me sick, or experienced of human nature, i'm not sure. but somehow it manages to make for an entertaining watch - but this only applies when there is nothing better to do.

Used to quite like fear factor, its a pretty good concept compared to most 'reality' tv. Anyway this scare tactics seems dodgy... I'm not sure if I get it, but they play pranks on people write, like scary candid camera or something...
but been america, what if its some state where pistols are legal and so is shooting trespasser(sp?)? what if one of the fake attackers ends up dead.

(Oh, honesty. That's always fun. Is this for a school project or something?)
I can honestly say that I am ambivalent towards "Fear Factor". I've seen it a few times, I've missed it many times more. It's just another average TV show, y'know.

haha yeah it sure is funny. it's always hilarious when girls can't do stuff.
not guys though, cause guys can do anything. in fact why even mention the possibility that a guy on fear factor couldn't do one of the stunts...like that's gonna happen. churrrrrrrrrr.

LETS FACE IT: ALL reality Shows are waste-of-TV-Space, Profit Driven Capitalist nonsense with attention starved mediawhores (whop needta be gunned down in cold blood) taking over REALISTIC TV Shows such as the Simpsons, MASH Etc.

hehe... Another advantage besides the food thing is that psychopaths do not grasp the consequences of their actions; they feel no fear, guilt or remorse; they don’t respond to the emotions of others. I suppose it wouldn't make interesting television viewing... unless the psycho contestant went AWOL and all the sharp, shiny objects were missing.

I love this show. The best part ever was the poor dude that struggled so hard to eat a bowl of maggots and cheese. Oh how I giggled my arse off...

Its a pretty good show to have a laugh at it and to see what kinda crazy ass stunts they're going to be doing next. Its not bad for 50,000 grand either where-as Going Straight, well, I won't even go there!!

I think it's stupid.
Nothing will compare to ENDURANCE, the crazy Japanese Fear Factor from a few years back.
What happened to that show?
I heard they had to stop making it cos someone died in one of the stunts!?
No show comes anywhere near as insane and sadistic as that show!
fark yeah. Oh the pain!...

It's pretty dumb ... the NZ rip off of it is even worse though!
Someone else was saying that The Simpsons is stupid now ... I'll say it is! I think they must be putting all their efforts into Futurama these days, that is a million times funnier and more well thought out. Or maybe the Simpson has just gone too long, and there's not much left they can do with it?
Some other people must agree that it's had a big decline in the last five years or so?

Yep, it's gone crap since they started making all those homo jokes with homer simpson... e.go painting his work mates in the nude

Watching people stuff handfuls of rancid cow brain into their mouths is interesting for about two minutes, after which you begin to question their mental competence. Incidentally, Scare Tactics is hosted by Shannen Doherty, who recently declared on 60 Minutes, "I'm trying to find a way to say this without sounding conceited...but, well, people watch the show to see me." Of course they do Shannen, of course they do.

I love fear factor. i dont know but theres just something about watching peoples facials while eating a cow brain that has really hooked me in. as for the NZ rip off going straight... what's with the name? I dont get it! its not like they're making people go "straight". I wonder if they can make gay people straight? or better yet, straight people straight....

i think its crapl, has any1 noticed how all the chicks on it have huge boobs? its so obvious the host guy joe is flirting wif them. especially in the playboy 1. it is not reality tv!

Hey that's the sole reason I watch it!!! Fear Factor rules! I love it when they slag each other off, and jump up and down in anger . . . and . . . . bounce.

But really Heather sometimes it's not that hard when only one or 2 stand out above the rest. And I don't even watch the programme so sorry there goes the chance of me ever paying attention to it. ha :P

What the hell? WHO CARES? What has a crap American reality show got to do with NZ music? Why are people bothering to discuss this here? Why am I here? Ahh, bugger it, I'm going to work.
