Episode 1
The Hunt Begins
Luke Tipple hosts this new action-adventure reality series where 12 teams of two are about to enter the Hunting Grounds, a high-tech wilderness compound, where they must live in primitive conditions for one month in a winner-take-all battle to survive. Armed with the latest GPS technology and a “talon,” which acts as a kill-switch to the vests worn by the hunted, the hunters search four acres of wilderness, sometimes in brutal weather, in order to capture two teams in 48 hours. In addition to battling fatigue, hunger and extreme weather, the hunted teams cannot stand still for more than three minutes without alerting the hunters to their location. Once two teams are captured, the others vote who should be sent home. Relying on their survival skills and primal instincts, the teams form alliances and strategize to be the ones that take home the coveted $250,000 prize.
