The Mantracker show starts tonight on OLN. You may remember my blog post about it – here, refresh your memory. The Mantracker himself, one of the guys who is tracked on the show, and another fan have already left comments on that thread!
From the OLN page, it looks like they are airing two episodes tonight:
Mantracker – Episode One “Jeff and Magnus”
Premieres Wed., April 12 at 9 p.m. ET/PT
Jeff Bremner, 47, is an oil prospector from Medicine Hat, Alberta; and Magnus Mulliner, 34, is a fitness and wellness consultant from Calgary. These two may both be from Alberta – but this is where the similarities end. If they are going to outwit Mantracker in Alberta’s ranch country, they will have to find some common ground. The terrain is rough, putting Mantracker and his horses at a serious disadvantage in this chase. Will Mantracker and local guide TJ capture these two tenacious prey despite the terrain? Or will Bremner and Mulliner overcome their differences and outrace Mantracker?
Mantracker – Episode Two “Liisa and Nicolina”
Premieres Wed., April 12 at 9:30 p.m. ET/PT
Liisa McMillan, a freelance writer and Nicolina Lanni, a journalism student, are two young women with steely resolve – and they want to make this the toughest challenge Mantracker has ever faced. To make sure of that, they push themselves to their physical and psycholical limits – facing paralyzing phobias – and drag Mantracker through a maze of thick bush and swamp. Mantracker’s horse is in danger and he’s not happy about it. Nobody’s safe in this adrenaline-packed game of hide-and-seek.

This show rocks but I know for a fact that the mantracker can’t catch me.

Unbelievably bad. Appears to be rigged. Any athlete with sense and wilderness savy would never get caught by these guys. On the episode I watched the “Mantracker” stated that the prey should keep the horses out of it….(the “prey” had strung up a bear banger to scare horses) why doesn’t the “Mantracker do just this and get his fat ass off the horse?

Mantracker is one off the best shows i have seen in a long time it is just too bad that they let so many losers on that realestate fat guy from ontario and his buddy and his stupid knife and this woman who runs to the bush and can,t shutup for one minute and saying ah robby

not sure about anyone else, but I have seen every episode of this show. It is in rerun mode. I understand they did some episodes around Naramata and Christian Valley in BC in 2007. does anyone know when these will be aired and when does season 3 actually start. This and Survivor are the only shows that I follow

I don’t believe that people think this is a reality show. How do they get the cameras in the bush and thick woods for close ups with the people who are being tracked ! The tracer would have the camera people’s foot prints to track plus see them too. Ridiclous!

I interviewed mantracker while he up was at Elliot Lake tapping a show.

Make it interseting. The prey has to put up $5,000 ea. If they get caught it goes to charity. If they make the finish line, Mantracker/OLN donates $10,000. This will give the prey an incentive to not act so stupid.

doesnt the camera crew give it away… seriously what is the point in all the camo if you have a camera crew following you around everywhere.
