Fear factor tonight

Anyone watch it?? They had these girls going into a box that had like tons of lizards and it looked like 2 maybe 3 boas (not sure I don't know snakes). I just found it kinda funny. I don't like that they did that to them but, other then some SERIOUS stress they didn't get phyically harmed (that I could see).

the girls were suprisingly gentle with everything.. There were a couple Ball Pythons, a Retic and Albino Burm and a couple BCI's in there, as well as a butt load of Tokays and some other sticky type geckos.. Only one girl took a bite and she didnt even flinch..

I don't watch it, either. I figure i'm one less person giving them ratings, so they'll go off the air that much faster. I don't really like seeing them do all that stuff to animals.

Anyone see killer instinct tonight speaking of shows? They had some killer geckos!

Used to watch during commercials just while watching other shows - don't do that anymore, I won't even give them that much after seeing how they treat some of the snakes... :grumps:

I havent watched that show since the corn snake and soap opera star incident. Of couse last night there is nothing else on, so I thought what the hell... Of corse It had to be one with animals! All it did was remind me why I dont watch the show. One of BCI had a really bad case of mouth rot or something... and the Tokays and Golden Geckos were in discusting condition! Very, very sad

I have not watched it since the 1st time they did a stunt with all the snakes in a coffin like scene with the celebs. The handling of animals and the way they just toss them against people just took me over the edge.

Sorry I do not support the TV ratings on animal cruelty.

Cya...

I have not seen any of those shows you guys are talking about. I actually don't really watch it my sister had it on, so I kinda watched it while on the computer. I find most of the things they do on there stupid. And most of the people stupid. Although if there is nothing else to do and nothing better to watch I will watch it.

I don't watch it either, why support a show that cruely treats animals. Plus i really don't want to watch them eat maggoty cheese, drink from goat nipples, and other disgusting things they do. That's not fear that's just plain GROSS...

fear factor sucks i hope someone does what they did to all those poor animals lets see how they like being blended alive ....those people are sick the sooner they go off the air the better. what do they do with the reptiles after the show anyways do they actually take care of them or just cram them in acouple of boxes?

It's sad to see animal abuse passing off as entertaniment these days even more of a lack of intrest in goverment officials to do something about it. but then again does the goverement ever care.
