I'm only on season 3 but they seem to find mostly passive survivalist now. Does that improve again?
I really enjoyed season one - there were more participants actually getting out there and trying different things. Season 2 seemed like they were half passive/half active participants. Season 3 though, seems primarily passive people just waiting for things to happen. Is it possible the editing now doesn't show the scouting for locations building shelters and some of the other efforts - not like how they were. Or they are seeking passive people?
I guess their warning about these being trained survival experts seems surprising when some quite literally seem to just be waiting it out?
