Well, if you preferred some decades old cowboy show to the laughs of Seinfeld, then you're really in a small, tiny, micro.... minority. Seinfeld lasted, what, ten years? How long did "High Chapparel" last? :)
That said, this series is informative and I watch it to see what I might learn.
Just the same, it can be a little stressful which is why most people don't want to watch it. Or, maybe most people KNOW they're never going to visit Africa and encounter crocs.... etc, so they can't relate.
The best episodes I've seen in this series were the two about people getting lost in the Amazon jungle. Nothing like a slow torture of the elements (humidity, rain, heat) and a variety of critters eating you alive (mosquitos, leeches, ants, cougars) to make life miserable. Modern humans have developed the idea that there will always be a rescue operation nearby..... when the fact is...... that isn't the case in many places on the planet. In many cases, you're on your own. TOTALLY on your own. Nobody to blame. Nobody to complain to.
