I think any of us who have never had to survive on our own can learn so much from this show. They are truly an authentic couple out in a survival situation. He is so patient with her who is truly a person with little knowledge of how to survive in a survival situation. You know...I'm a woman of 72 years young. My husband and I have traveled to many places. The survival techniques I have learned from Man - Woman will be very useful if I ever need it. How to build a shelter, build a fire, hunt food and look for water. We have enjoyed this show so much.. Hope it will be on again. We love both of them. LOVE THE SHOW. I think Ruth is such a wonderful lady and he is such a gentle gentleman with her...BRAVO!!! We

I watch this with my 14 year old daughter and my 24 year old daughter and we LOVE IT! It is fascinating and educational and it is one of the few shows we watch together. Myke and Ruth are an exemplary couple.... they are respectful of each other... Mike is always protective and puts her safely and well-being alwasy ahead of his own. She is incredibly proud of his skills and knowlege (as she should be!) and she is alwasy positive and inquisitive and gives 100%. I think their love of each other and their complete cooperation and teamwork together is EXEMPLARY! How anyone could complain about anything in this show seems beyond me??? I've never watched MAn vs Wild because it isn't interesting.... sure, men like physical challenges... but it doens't engage me at all. This show is different!!! I can relate to Ruth and like to picture myself in her situation- I'm sure I could never measure up her No-whining, stay positive, try to learn something new everyday attititude. I don't think anyone under 13 would be particularly interested in this show but there is no reason any age couldn't watch it! WATCH ONE EPISODE and you'll be hooked.

My little girl watches this with her dad, and then they play "Man Woman Wild." She's pretty sensitive to scary things, but she seems to understand the concept of preparing to avoid and react to real dangers. Although the husband, trained in survival, generally leads, in the second season he seems to take more suggestions from Ruth, and they always work as a team. The wife is resilient, smart and brave, and this show is a far cry from most representations of women on TV.

I watch the show with my boys, ages 8 and 11, along with other similar type shows, we enjoy the teaching aspect of the show. Myke is teaching his wife useful skills and she puts her two cents in, when she feels the need or wants to. The boys (and my husband)and I agree with Ruth about the drinking of urine, yucky! has nothing to do with "girlie issues" it was just plan yucky! Michelle of Warrenton, VA

I think this shows how two people working together can make anything work as long all parties try and do there part not just in a survival situation but in there marriage. yes mykel is in charge most of the time but he is the one with the training for this situation I am sure if ruth was the one with the survival training she would be in charge. The program just shows the grit that goes into survival.
