Discovery Channel naked shows

I see that the Discovery channel has a couple of shows, "Naked Castaway", and "Naked and Afraid" airing now. So is this a sign that the media is opening up about nudity, or is just titillation to get people to watch the shows? And the blurring they use is quite annoying although "Naked and Afraid" does have an uncensored version.

NWANATURELOVERS,
Don't the pointy headed officials in Arkansas block this type of programming?
It also appears that you need another type of spell checker. This one failed you.

DesertRat:NWANATURELOVERS, Don't the pointy headed officials in Arkansas block this type of programming? It also appears that you need another type of spell checker. This one failed you.Porn is legal in Ar. and so is sex between non-marriedconsenting adults and nudity with same sex. Only nudity with opposite sex who isn't your spouse is illegal or even to talk (promote) about it.I saw some of the clips from the"Naked and afraid"online and would like to check out a fullepisode to get a better idea about it. I thought it was an interesting idea. Does anyone have a link to theuncensored version mentioned above.

I thought "Naked and Afraid" was somewhat amateurish and it didn't take them long to fashion themselves something to cover up with. As someone who has spent a lot of time in the woods naked, not having shoes is by far the biggest challenge.
DirecTV has both versions showing, but I've only watched the censored one so far since I didn't see the uncensored one until after I recorded it.

I saw 3 episodes of "Naked and Afraid" already and it's a great survival show. Just watched a "uncensored" episode and they still have blurred spots on their bodies. Not surprised, because the show is on cable tv and the average person in America thinks of sex when seeing a naked body.

One seen part of one Naked & Afraid show. I'm not sure if it shows a positive on nudists. Wish they would highlight a little of what naturism is and what is out there now.

I've now seen a few episodes of Naked and Afraid and have come away with a surprising conclusion. The premise of the show is to have two cast-aways who start with very little and survive their environment. The fact that they fashion clothes is a part of their survival. What I found surprising was, except for one show where the couple both had about equal skills, the women have saved the butts of these big brawny survival experts. Some of those guys turned out to be real wussess who would have literally died if they didn't have the women to help them. To make matters worse, these guys kept degrading the women, even while they were being saved by them.

I saw the previews for "Episode 8: 2 Couple, 2 Hour Special Event (Sun Dec 8 8/7c)" on Discovery. The episode guide only shows the one new show at this time. I can't seem to get it to add the link so here it is. https://dsc.discovery.com/tv-shows/naked-and-afraid/episode-guide.htm

Seen the trailers on cable her in Vn, so maybe it will be aired soon.
I too would like to see the blurring done away with as it does more to highlight than cover what is natural and if its so offensive.
Why have them naked?
Why produce it all.
Me thinks Just an draw card to help rake in the $$s

Why can't we get a certified pass to view the shows without the pixilated crap?
Ditto on the AR comment
