Congratulations. Let's hope the editing room doesn't cause you to want to go back and demonstrate your art on some hollydoodle butt. My repsect and trust for the History channel went away a long time ago. ( The Nostradamus, Area 51 crap for starts ). But this is a reality show, so maybe you're safe. TV execs think Jesus taught us how to make reality shows nowadays. ( Sorry, old codjer teetering on soapbox agin ) Will watch and cheer for the home team ;D

You old codjer you. ;D Hey now, I like area 51 stuff. I wanna believe . I've already threatened them about editing. They are suppose to make me look good. If not, I have several sharp pointy things to take care of them with.

Saw the first episode (Rifle episode): pretty standard reality show framework, except that the house is full of people who are COMPETENT. That's pretty awesome!
It's very different seeing real human beings and people who are quite skilled competing in difficult contests. I normally DESPISE reality TV, but I was very entertained and interested in this one.
Can't wait for the English Archery episode. ;D
Congrats again!!!

Congratulations Chris, that's very cool! Sounds like you had a good time too. I look forward to seeing it.
Now that you've got some screen cred, you need to get yourself a manager, maybe take over Russel Crow's spot for Robin Hood II...

Hey, thanks for the comments and posting that link. Some other people were asking about it. I'll pass it on.
Russel Crow's my favorite actor, but I'll take his job any day ;D. Yeah right... in my dreams.
Chris

I won't be watching agin till the archery episode and then not again afterward. And I'll only be watching the archery episode because a fellow SBGer is in that one. It's "Survivor" with missile weapons...

I watched the first episode and didn't think it was too bad. Yes, you've got the personality crap and have the opportunity for alliences, but so far it was entertaining. It does help that there is nothing good on Wednesday nights.

Yeah, I fast forwarded through all the talking BS and got right to the shooting. I found it interesting to watch the final shoot out and watch how calm the young kid was under pressure. He really showed them how its done. I like to think that is how calm and composed I am when fighting.

I saw the TV commercial for it this morning the 15th and as they are showing everybody trying to figure out a bow they show you twice(kind of quick though).But I did recognize you from the pic's on your site,you are always shown on the left side of the screen standing up. Looks like a good one,BTW how many new how to shoot a bow out of that group.

Caught the second eppisode of this show by pure chance the other day... the pistol shooting epp. I missed the first one. My impression was much like Taran's... survivor with guns. I actually thought they maybe should have got better marksmen... being that I know many military folk, my impression is I know some better shooters myself. Hey, ShooterMike, why are you not on this show? However... I will watch the HELL out of your epp Chris... for many reasons. 1. Your in it. Pure awesome sauce. 2. I love bows. 3. I'm betting most of these people have little to no experince with bows, so this should be somewhat funny. ;D

None of their bios say anything about bows. It's all about the Rifles and Pistols. One mentions throwing knives, but that's it.

Man, I'd have loved to get on there and learn some things from you Chris. I've been shooting traditional archery for 7 or 8 years now. I'm very out of practice but it'd be a hell of a lot of fun to get out there with a bow again.

Hey guys. I attached my youtube announcement to the top of the thread. Left some bloopers in there ;D
Can't say alot, but lets just say they pretty much just know their guns, but a few of them caught on pretty well. I think if you know how to shoot well, you can kind of get the idea of just about anything... or maybe not.
Glad to see there's some interest in the show. I know this is a sword forum, but we're all brothers (and sisters) here so I thought you'd probably like it.

I know this is a sword forum, but we're all brothers (and sisters) here so I thought you'd probably like it. You seem pretty natural in front of the camera, I think this is going to turn out well. As for interest in the show, I think there's a strong feeling of community here, I've never met you or even done business with you but you're a member of the community I'm part of so I'm excited that you're on this show. I think most of us feel the same way.
