Naked and afraid XL is the next level for the contestants as well as the viewers of the regular naked and afraid Survival series.
A Single episode is too short to cover the ordeal of 21 day survival challenge hence Discovery has come up with XL which covers the 40 day survival challenge instead of 21 and is spread across an entire series.
The highlight of the show is that Many veteran survivalists come for a more gruelling challenge or are given a shot at Redemption through XL and it showcases how human nature changes when the same person is pitted in a different group.
Group dynamics plays a major part and each person has to come up with his survival plan for the 40 days. You can see lot of survival plans/fails, and a lot of drama too which is obvious when many people are pitted together and decisions clash.
It's true that the show is edited in such a way that events seem to be more linear and a lot of drama is triggered by the showrunners themselves like asking specific questions intentionally or deliberately picking contestants who are sure to bring in drama. But thats obvious considering this is a reality TV show and not a documentary.
It would be amazing if a crossover with Bear grylls is done someday.
In short this is an amazing survival series if you consider this as a reality TV show which is more real compared to all other current crop of shows.
