I think I'll just wait till they have my fav. season

I liked Season 3 best. I think the stunts reached reached their peak of extremeness that season. Also, they seemed to focus more on the contestants' fear of what they were about to do. There was also more trash talking and personality developement, so you got to know the contestants and it was easy to pick someone to root for or against. On the episodes these past two seasons, it doesn't seem like anyone cares that they're about to jump out of a helicopter or get bit by snakes, they just care about getting the best time. I know the show is a competition, but it's called FEAR Factor. There doesn't seem to be much fear lately. In the earlier seasons there were a lot more hesitant people and emotional breakdowns. In seasons 5 and 6 you don't see as much of that. In the first three or four seasons, you wondered, "are they going to do it?" and it made the show more suspenseful. Now you know they're going to do it (exception for the haircut-that was a good one), the only suspense is seeing who's going to get the best time. The championships at the end of seasons 2 and 3 were also cool. Season 4 was the second best season, it was basically like season three except the contestants seemed a little more complacent.
