![]() These graphics shed light on the countries and the survivalists with interesting and often humorous factoids. Starting in June 2014, Discovery started airing special versions of the show with "Pop-Up" text. Host Josh Wolf talked with castaways from the recently aired episode, showed behind-the-scenes and never before seen episode footage and has in-studio stunts. Naked After Darkįollowing the success of the live talk show Shark After Dark, Discovery aired Naked After Dark in season two, which aired after each new episode. On July 31, 2013, Discovery Channel posted a casting call and a dare to "survive the 21-day challenge" via their Twitter account. Like the first season, the second season visited six countries as well, using Malaysia as a setting once again (Season 1 shot on the Malaysian Borneo, while Season 2's survivalists were stranded in Peninsular Malaysia). ![]() Panama was used as a setting twice in the first and fourth seasons, Nicaragua was also used twice as well in the third season. The production's home base is in the United States (the Louisiana Bayou, Florida and Alabama) used as the locations. Filmmaker and YouTube Celebrity Cory Williams announced that he will be participating in Season 7. She was replaced by surfer and model Anastasia Ashley. In February 2017, YouTube Celebrity Ali Spagnola announced that she had been cast in an episode of the upcoming season, but had to drop out because of a medical issue. Note that in addition to the above, there are also a number of unlisted Pop-Up Editions (which have different titles from their original episodes), and specials, such as "Franco and Rogen", featuring James Franco and Seth Rogen. Before and after weight measurements are also revealed at the end of an episode. Naked and Afraid computes and then updates the cast members' PSR (Primitive Survival Rating), which is based on predictions and observations of survival fitness in skill, experience, and mental strengths. Viewers are updated throughout with statistics including how many days have passed, the time, and the temperature. If they do not tap out, they must arrive at the designated extraction point on the final day to be picked up by a helicopter or boat or other vehicle suitable to the environment. A team is allowed to "tap out" at any point during the 21-day challenge. At the beginning on the fourth season, the survivalists were given a third "surprise" item. There is a camera crew who are not allowed to intervene except for medical emergencies when it is "absolutely necessary." Cast mate Alison Teal reports that she was granted an "emergency" tampon. Each survivalist is allowed to bring one helpful item, such as a hatchet or a fire starter. They all wear identical necklaces with a center bead which is a microphone that has a wire that connects to a wireless audio transmitter hidden in the satchel. ![]() They are provided with rough cross-body satchels containing a personal diary/camera-for use when the camera crew is not there at night-and a map. Phew.The events of each couple's quest play out in a single episode. They don’t get food from the crew Producer Mathilde Bittner told Reality Blurred that contestants have asked for Snickers bars, cake and sandwiches, but the crew doesn’t oblige.īut they do get tampons According to contestant Alison Teal, she was given a tampon when she got her period while on the show. The contestants have a radio and a whistle they can use to signal to the production camp nearby. But it’s not just because it’s dark out while a small crew follows the contestants during the day, at night the crew leaves. The night is the scariest As we would assume. So points for doing badass stuff no one even knows about. ![]() In fact, some of the scariest moments (like when one contestant’s hands and legs were covered in blood after navigating a coral reef) don’t make it to air. Some of the most dramatic moments aren’t even shown Sure, they’re fitting 22 days of action into about 45 minutes of TV, but they’re not editing it for maximum drama. The contestants never meet until they’re on location-and naked. The intro is as awkward as you think it would be This isn’t some staged meet up where they’re secretly pals. ![]()
