Les' Journal - March 25th 2005

Survivorman doing phenomenally well in ratings......Four new shows coming to air soon.....Survivorman shows win two awards at Waterwalker Film Festival!.......Les leaves for life raft survival in less than a week!

Hi all......Survivorman has continued to do extremely well in the ratings according to Network Director Anna Stambolic. In some cases we have surpassed 100,000 viewers in slots that normally average 25,000! And the fantastic viewer response to me directly continues daily.

Wednesday March 30th at 8PM and 9 PM should be the air date and times for a brand new Survivorman - Utah Canyonlands...where I survived right where 'Butch Cassidy and his Wild Bunch' hid out from the law! **Watch for the squirrel scene!

On the heels of Utah Canyonlands....will be Plane Crash in Northern Ontario - Winter.....where I had an actual plane wreckage dropped into the bush and was left alone beside it to .....well of course.....survive!

The Outdoor Life Network has now committed to having us put together a Behind the Scenes Special....which should be on air shortly after 'Plane Crash'

At this years Waterwalker Film Festival both Survivorman - Mountain and Survivorman - Costa Rica were chosen as winners to travel with the festival....watch for it in your area.

And lastly....keep your positive thoughts and prayers with me as I leave to shoot the season finale in less than a week. Life raft survival in Belize!

On a final note - OLN definitely wants a second season of Survivorman to happen. Details have yet to be worked out

take care All

Les
