Fixed that for you


It's not that I really "like" Jamie, Its more like he’s the only guy that doesn't come off as a pile. Brian, Chris and Joe seem like ok guys but the simple fact that they allied with captain D-bag kills it for me, leaves me only one person I can root for. If they would have stood up and said F-you, this person and that person shot the worst they should be going up for elimination, then I'd have no issue with them, but they didn't, they sacrificed their character to appease the dill-hole and be part of the "cool group".

I do not disagree with you about character, however remember they are playing for money and that means everyone is out for what is best for themselves not for honor.

Best to shots in my opinion are Brian and George and I want to see that match up.

I also put more weight on the performance than the drama. I like george as a shooter, and I think Joe has shot wonderfully, so I don't know where H&H got that he hasn't done well.

Chris and gunny have done OK, but they have shone weaknesses before, and they arn't the fastest kids on the block either. Jamie shoots like.."meh"...not bad but not winner worth IMHO.

I really see it as coming down to joe or george. Chris could be up there, and I see gunny pulling another hammy as soon as they have them running uphill again.

The remaining four guys are all classless lying slugs. I could care less about seeing any of them win. I was glad to see Iain come back from last year. I don't want to see any of these four pricks again.

LOL - yeah. You're as bad as the guys who say they are going to vote for someone else for elimination then change their vote to Jamie at the range. :lol:

I finally found out about this show a couple of weeks ago and the first show I saw was the one where Ashley was knocked out. I've also seen the most recent one where Jamie was knocked out. Ashley is an asshat. I wanted Jamie to win only because of Ashley's attitude. The others I don't care one way or another about.

I enjoy the competition part. The host drives me nuts and I can do without pretty much everything else that doesn't include shooting. The "voting" is just ridiculous. First of all, get rid of the soap opera and just make it performance based. Have the two lowest go head to head to see who get's booted off. And if you have to have voting, just friggin' vote, not this gimmicky shoot-to-vote bit.

If I didn't record this on my DVR, I couldn't stand to watch it.

And I just want to shoot Lenny's avatar. I almost want to puke when I look at it. :P

I was dissapointed when Jamie was offed. I wanted him to win just to shove it in Ashley's face. Ashley is a wanna be guy anyway you look at it. Just picture him in High school. He was proly beat up every week. :lol:

Watched the season two wrap up show last night and the last episode before that.

The format sucks. I am not concerned in the least what they had for dinner or if someone needed to be told to STFU.

Shooting stunts are just that stunts. Two revolvers at once, with Ruger DA revolvers with their 13 pound DA trigger pulls, is a stunt. Upside down shooters, fast rapel lines. All stunts.

Tannerite targets etc just make it worse, and WTF does archery, blowguns, and hatchet throwing have to do shooting.

I will not watch it again. If some one wants to have a show with three stages a show beit blackpowder, cowboy, carry, race, hunting, target, NRA four position, aka appleseed, bullseye, etc. And only if they hire David Ferrity to announce it. No pompous dude sitting there announcing the obvious and only succeeding in be annoying.

I don't care if it makes what producers think is "good TV", Good tv is made by honest competition not BS hosts and created drama. Run the whole cast four a few weeks in "regular season" then use that for seeds and then go to elimination.

3 seasons on a main channel would appear to disagree with your tastes! Not that I disagree with your premise, however I fear the "dramatics" are our penence in order to be mainstream.

Its still not good TV. it may fill a void, but its not good TV, it could be SO much better. It actually could be informative and creative, not formulaeic
