I believe the above threads are missing the point of the orginating post's disgust. The show is not a real surival situation, but a deliberately contrived one and unlike training in the military is it does serve no good purpose, just the rather jaded licentious tastes of others for their amusement.

I am not a big fan of reality television for the reason it is very reminiscent of the ancient romen coliseum even though it stops just short of murder and torture, its underlying principal seems to be little more than sadism to entertain others. I have no doubt that at least some of the people who produce or watch these shows would quite happily watch people or animals tortured or killed if they thought they could get away with it.
