    No amount of money could have ever gotten me on a show like this. When I puke, it's not going to be from ingesting lizard guts, or anything else that would freak a normal person out just by looking at it.

    Joe Rogan likes to scream "Come on you can do it", while he is safe on the ground. What a pussy!

    Televisions equivalent of the old carny "geek" shows where someone would eat a rat or bite the head off a pigeon.

    i like watching the stunts but my stomach can not handle watching them eat all that gross stuff. i could never participate in this show because i would not eat that stuff for any amount of money.

    Would have rated it higher in the beginning, but now I"m just over it. It's practically the same old stuff from halfway through the series on...

    How many times can you watch desperate and annoying people eat insects and guts in order to win some money? Tawdry freak-show that only someone with a mental illness could watch for more than an episode or two.

    People who like to humiliate themselves publicly in desperation of 15-minute-fame. I don't understand why in the world people would agree to eating cow 's guts, or laying down in the bath of warms, ...just don't get it?

    An entertaining show with some creative stunts, but apparently you have to be beautiful to get on this show. Mix it up a little please!

    All reality television shows are boring, hollow, cheaply made, unentertaining, talentless, and insulting wastes of television airspace. I understand that it's part of the wartime propaganda tool of dumbing down the country, but it doesn't have to be watched. You people need to quit watching television and do something productive. Read a book, write a handwritten letter to a friend or relative, go outdoors, exercise, cook a meal, go for a walk, pick some flowers, smile, liberate yourselves from tv.

    I think this show has run its course as with much of reality television. The stunts are now based more on sex and the gross out factor is a little too much. TV today it is moving more and more away from family programming to Anything goes Television.

    i have been watching your show almost since it came on the air this latest show the couples was terrible are you trying to be funny pitting the couples against each other well i think you should change the name of the show to jerry springer ll the time slot you have in wis.is 4pm prime time for kids comming home from school i will not watch the rest of the couples show and hope you change your format for the next show also is it a rule that the people who you have on the show have to undress in front of the camera sick you show doesn't need any of that stuff it is a gret show it would be better if you stop that stuff fred j gauthier (retired)

    This show is one of the most morally disgusting shows out there. I used to like watching fear factor because they really focused more on challenges and they had good safety measures. But now, they are starting to encourage people to go against each other or make people throw up when they are eating something gross. How low can you get. They seem like such dogs, when eg a contestant is being stung by all these bees and the other people are laughing and saying horrible things to them to try to discourage them. It is almost like they are blood thirsty. It is every man for himself on that show, and it is a dark feeling. They should encourage people to support each other and to not gloat when their opponent falls. I also don't enjoy watching people choking and trying to stop themselves from vomiting, especially women. It does women no favours on that show, because I've noticed that it is the woman contestants who are the most amoral. They are the ones who try to discourage their o... Read more

    I never made a point to watch this show, but when my kids have it on, I can't help but be intrigued by these *skinny* girls and guys that can woof down cow brains and the like. I don't know how anyone could go through that, especially not knowing if after all that you are going to screw up some place else and then not win the money! The last time I watched and allowed it to be on while I am around is when they had kids on it with the parents. I didn't like that at all. How could you do such awful things to kids that were obviously upset by having cockroaches covering them? Sorry, but that was a little overboard. I can see how if a person is on that show, afterwards may have difficult time eating things, or nightmares or whatever, but they're adults. That's there own decision. Do NOT bring your kids into it!

    This disgusting crew for this equally stupid show placed cockroaches into a blender and turned it on while they were alive! Screw Fear Factor! I hate people who ruthlessly torture animals for pointless reasons!

    This show demonstrates just what the lowest common denominator is in America. I tend to think that people who watch this also watch NASCAR and listen to Michael Savage.

    I just started watching this show. How many seasons did it have? Joe Rogan is great (hate his website though).I usually take a bathroom break during the middle stunt. Yeah, I know it is gross..just forget I said that.

    This is not just terrible, it is rediciolous. All this is about people eating bugs or gross things. They are just trying to find more ways to disgust the viewers. Joe Rogan is a terrible host.

    my daughter & I love your show. gross sometimes? yes, but isn't that what it's all about? not just facing your fear. we were hoping to find a child fear factor, & I did, but you have to be at least 10 yrs. old. ok kiddo, 1 yr. to go & we can apply. wish us luck.

    Fear Factor is a good show to disgusting at times but still fun to watch and it is not a commitment like Survivor that goes on and on ad nosium.

    Quit bashing fear factor people! It's just entertainment. It's fun to watch, change the channel if you dont want to watch it. People need to lighten up a little. And Joe is a cutie!
