Post by djui5 »

OK, whether you like Bear Grylls or not, you can't miss this! Will Ferrell is in the mountain wilderness in Sweden with him on Man vs. Wild this Tuesday night! :D

I'm actually planning on taking bets as to how long it takes Grylls to get sick of him...LOL

It just looks like a bunch of lame one liners. I'd be ready to tape his mouth shut pretty quick.

You were probably referring to Will Ferrell, but I find him less annoying than Bear. To me, Bear's normal routine seems like a toned-down version of Will Ferrell.

All Grylls has to do is give Ferrell a paper cut, and he'll whine the rest of the show :sl:

Could "Land of the Lost" aerobic-instructor itself out to any more media outlets? Is it possible? Or have they all been saturated? I got so sick of hearing ads for "Land of the Lost", X Show presented by "Land of the Lost", "Land of the Lost" survival tip #2356257, etc. UGH!

Episode was ehh....ok...definitely wasn't what I was expecting with Will Ferrell...the whole thing did just feel like an excuse to shamelessly play up "Land of the Lost".

I loved the part where Will got fed up with the make-shift snow shoes!
