7 Best Survival Shows on TV Everyone Should Watch (and Why)

You could say that survival shows have always been popular, now more than ever. It's somehow appealing to watch all those survival situations, steps protagonists take to overcome problems in real life. Whether audiences justify these shows as useful examples of possible live scenarios or think the survivalists and preppers in survival TV series reveal unreasonable fears, precautions, and primitive skills, COVID-19 has proven survival show protagonists right.

The whole point they demonstrate is about self-reliance and eliminating complete dependence on society.
Sure, you should watch survival shows, but don't think of them as survival courses. As a starter survivalist or prepper, you need to be reminded that their main purpose is to entertain. There are real and quite challenging shows, but there are also heavily staged shows. Watching survival shows on TV can be helpful in a number of ways.
It can be fun to see how real people deal with real problems.

You always learn and receive tips and advice. Practice is everything, but it's useful to see some famous survival experts in action. Some of their strategies and wisdom are universal.

Learning new skills is also possible. You can even get inspired by watching the shows. Be inspired to spend your time sharpening these skills by learning and practicing them in appropriate places.

Whatever the reason for watching the survival shows, they make you think and imagine yourself in those relevant situations. You will encounter mental challenges and small obstacles that are difficult to anticipate.

So the benefits are many, but it's time to watch some survival shows.

ALONE is sincere and tough and is one of the most popular and successful survival shows. There are still 10 participants who are on their own, completely isolated from each other, in the middle of nowhere. They receive a camera and a bug out bag with 10 items. Beautiful nature, far from civilization, drama, competition and a reward for the one who lasts the longest.

In a way, Survivorman can be considered a show that set the course and left many to follow. Over seven seasons, the show follows its main character, survival expert Les Straud, in his self-challenge adventures to survive alone in the remote wilderness for seven or even ten days. He had little or no water, food and equipment. He had a camera to record himself in his struggle to endure extreme situations and dangerous events. Although locations were scouted in advance and its support crew were always within rescue range, Survivorman is an authentic show that teaches important lessons.

Although criticized as a staged show, Man VS Wild with its host-survival expert Bear Grylls stands as a hugely popular and influential TV show. You may or may not like Bear Grylls' style and sometimes his overdramatized reactions. But this man has skills and knowledge that he knows how to present and share. Still, you should be reminded that this is a TV show (not a survival guide), intended primarily to entertain and inform. It's great that it can give you good advice and not misleading tips.

Dual Survival is another show that has been accused of being staged too often due to some inconsistencies and extra drama. As the name of the survival show suggests, it features two survival experts who take opposite approaches to survival. And their job is to survive by overcoming their different points of view. It is precisely this decision-making aspect of survival that matters enormously. When an emergency occurs, you are not alone, but there are people around you who will likely have different opinions about the actions you should take in those SHTF scenarios. The show teaches us about crucial mental aspects and leadership in those situations.

Naked and Afraid, a more popular TV survival show (real and simple), features two strangers (a man and a woman) who find themselves in the remote wilderness. They only have one item to help them. There is absolutely nothing else. They must survive for 21 days. The protagonists actually face real threats that they must overcome. In this way, the show provides insight into the state of mind of people struggling to survive.
