Discovery and former Man Vs. Wild host Bear Grylls parted ways in 2012 over a programming disagreement, but bygones would appear to be bygones. Discovery Networks International says the survival expert will return to the overseas fold with new series, Bear Grylls: Ultimate Survivors. The six-part hourlong show will air on the Discovery Channel in 217 international markets across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. Ultimate Survivors sees Grylls chronicle incredible stories of ordinary people stranded in dire situations. He’ll then pit himself against the same dangers and scenarios. Grylls said he was “super excited to be working with Discovery again” and Discovery returned the compliment: “We are thrilled to welcome Bear back to the Discovery fold,” said DNI chief content officer and EVP Luis Silberwasser. The show is produced for DNI by Discovery’s betty TV. Sarah Davies is executive producer for DNI, and Neil Smith exec produces for betty.


Bring back Les Stroud that’s a real survivalist not this phony who brings an entire crew with him.
Oh Ben, he’s no phony. I’d love to see your sorry ass do what he does. I always love to read these kinds of posts from some fat troll sitting in his underwear in Moma’s basement. Slug.
He IS fake. Sitting in a four star hotel while pretending he is out in the wild the whole time. FAKE!! Les Stroud (Survivorman) is the real deal.
Add to this flat out fraud, much of what Grylls shows is incredibly dangerous and would more likely result in the death rather than survival of the average person.
Bear is the ultimate survivor,like it or not.and his fans stat polite.not barking or talking bs about other wannabe survivors.or wannabears as i call you,euhm i mean them.woohoow for BG
Who is Bear? Where is Surviorman!
Oh Bette such a naive lady. Bear is no survivor when he has a crew of 10 watching and pampering him off camera. He’s a nice actor but a phony survivor.
Now go watch Survivorman or do a little research on the remarkable non-actor named Les Stroud. I’m sure you’ll realize the difference Betty
hes not out there to survive. hes there to show you how to and what to do when your in a bad situation.
I dont care if he slept in a 4 star hotel, this guy knows his stuff and most of what you see in Man VS Wild is not able to be edited. I like his personality and experience. Good job Discovery. Only show I watched on that network. I’ll come back now.
Cannot wait to watch the new show from Bear. Like the man vs wild serious very much!
Obviously there are situation where Bear has help, this is a TV show after all. Those that expect that everything they see on television to be real are very delusional are are contributing to the wrongs of society. Bear definiately demostrates actually survial skills as opposed to others on TV that are nothing more than liberal tree huggers only eating fruits and plants. I love watching Bear come across an animal..you just know he is going to try to kill it and eat it. If you were out to survive you would too..not forage for plants!
