Fear Factor

I love the show. My friends hate it but sometimes i get them to watch except when the eating stunts come on. If you didn't have to eat nasty stuff i would to be a contestant. I mainly like the jumping out of stuff but i can't swim. I also like crashing cars, but i can't drive. that doesn't matter but for $50,000 i would try anything once. Also i love the host, he is a gas. He tells it like it is and he is a great motivator for getting you to eat anything. He also needs to show a few competitors how to do the stunts, that would be great. I read all the other comments and all I have to say is, "IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT DON'T WATCH IT."

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!

This series regardless of how one may feel about it should be re-named the gross-out factor.

I've watched it on several occasions and viewed feat that are actually more in tune with having a hard stomach, than in something that actually challenges our fears. for example in the Playmates Edition, one segment had the participants eating strawberries in a case full of flies, most of them , the -playmates swallowed several flies. Other segments has similar feats, one with cockroaches. Now is that sick or what? In others the object is itself to swallow worms, crickets and other insects.

What people are willing to do, for whatever the prize is strictly up to them. I would never try to suppress it. Also if viewers tune in, myself included at times, fine. But call a spade a spade.

I used to watch Fear Factor when they were going for mostly dangerous stunts. Of course, the writers and producers of the show had a hit an all-time low by burying people in innocent animals (like rats and spiders) and making them eat disgusting stuff (I can handle the coagulated blood balls...sort of...but WHY do they have to eat hissing cockroaches, one of my favorite insects?? That's barbaric and cruel, no matter how small or "disgusting" the animal).

The basic idea of the show: Get a group of morons together, and dare them to do stupid stuff. Whoever is left standing at the end of the mess wins (I think) $50,000.

I have since stopped watching this show. It's not about true fear anymore, but about grossing people out.

This show is wonderful and not even close to MTV's Show Fear. This show pits 6 contestants against each other for 50,000 dollars. They have to complete 3 stunts. Some of the stunts are physical, most are mental though. I would recommend this show to anyone that likes to see how people react in the face of their fears.

I love fear factor and so does my husband he wants to go on it and see if he can make it. the show is so great. if i thought that i could do it i would go on it but i am afraid of to many things. like the rats and the snakes and i could never eat bugs
