But I agree with your point:
Bear Grylls has no ethics or morals, but neither do most of our politicians, and that doesn’t keep them off TV. I also agree with you that Man vs. Wild is “some of the best television I’ve ever seen” – and it makes no sense to keep Bear Grylls, and Man vs. Wild, off TV.

No longer do we look forward to a Friday night premier at 9pm, because Mr. Grylls has practically been taken off the air. Thanks for this goes to
you, the public, for your gross misinterpretation of fact.
How much of the television that you watch is uncensored? Uncut? Or unblemished truth? None. So why do we continue to punish Mr. Grylls for attempting to spice up fact with a little drama?
The Discovery Channel in and of itself doesn’t actually (big surprise) get a great deal of highly rated (or watched) shows. Bear Grylls was going to change all of that by creating a fun and exciting show and marketing it for the general public. And in order to keep the attention of the ever changing climate that is public interest, you must continue feeding us things we feel
we can find no where else.
And even skeptics have to admit, no one had ever seen sensationalism of this caliber from a survival show. For weeks Mr. Grylls kept us all glued to our seats watching some of the best television, I believe I’ve ever seen.
Maybe it wasn’t “real”, but it was a real interpretation of what might actually have transpired, and it really showed how Mr. Grylls would have handled things should he have had the misfortune to be stranded in some of the
most remote locations on the globe, and had things go terribly wrong, (i.e. the “bear” incident.”)
Where else am I going to find someone to brave the wilderness, and show me (the average American, who never plans to be in a non-climate controlled environment for longer than absolutely necessary) how to defend my
poor pitiful self against terrain and animals, the like of which I’ve never and probably will never, see.
So, my point is simple. Leave Mr. Grylls alone. He’s just doing what the rest of us would. He found a great idea, he exhausted it’s truth, and used
fiction to keep it interesting, since it was making him SO MUCH MONEY.
Wouldn’t all of us have done the same?
