Selling “Alone”
Reality shows aren’t really my thing except for one: Alone.
If you haven’t seen it, here’s the gist: Ten survivalists are dropped off in remote, unforgiving locations like Patagonia or Northern Saskatchewan. Each contestant is completely isolated, armed with only a few basic items—think hatchet, ax, tarp, fishing line, bow and 9 arrows, a cooking pot and sleeping bag. They have to build a shelter and hunt or forage for every scrap of food as fall turns to harsh winter. They’re given cameras to document their journey and a satellite phone to call for rescue . . .
