New Survival TV show

So I was watching TV with my brother and sister the other day, and on Cartoon Network there was a show called "Survive This." It was about a bunch of different kids from different backgrounds who had to survive in the wilderness. At random points, the host, that Les guy that we saw in the "I shouldn't be Alive Lost in the Snow" episode, would come in to their survival camp thing and ask them all "Who wants out" which is a kind of cheesy phrase but means "who gives up and wants to go home." It is a good show, like "I shouldn't be Alive" but somehow more educational on our and their part, because they (and consequently us) are learning from Les and his "Survival School" that he sent them too "before" the show started filming. It shows that it is hard to survive and that survival is not coming out all right, it is the will to live. It was touching to see the spoiled girl named Becca (Princess) crying and the guy named Adam (Sports Guy), I think, get used to not as much food. (they conveniently had some from the bus that conveniently tipped over) I am sharing this for next years survival unit, because it is way less gruesome than "I shouldn't be Alive" but it still shows how to survive, without any help other than each other. (and the camera crew and directors and medical people waiting on the sidelines just in case)
