This is the coolest show

These programs really should be made using people who have practical skills. I'm no survivalist, but can and have butchered and prepared animals, hunted, and have at least a working knowledge of lots of practical skills. This is just watching people with zero knowledge struggling. Be much more interesting to watch people who know what they're doing get on with it.

Are there other episodes of Time Crashers?

Hanging a dear that long before skinning it can actually makes it harder particularly when it's cold. The under layers of skin will basically shrink wrap to the meat. I once was frustrated with my father because I was tired of scraping the extra skin layers off and believed he could leave less mess and meat for me to clean off. He got smart, he thought, and said if you think you can do so much better prove it and went upstairs. Well I got smart back and grabbed an exacto-knife and 3 hrs later I had a hide I didn't need to scape and he had what looked like a giant white hairless rat with hooves. Him and a friend had been upstairs laughing until they came down to see it and turned green in a sick way. You see I had even skinned the tail leaving the extra skin layers on and it had fallen forward between the legs. They were so shocked because they never thought what I did was even possible that they forgot in their shock that they left me with a female dear. So now I have to babbling ill looking men on the edge of collapse with no idea why until one managed to get a shaking hand in the general area of between the back legs. At which point what they were horrified I'd skinned, which I refuse to touch for the record, finally hit me and when I reached behind that dear and pulled the tail out of the back and reminded them it was female they collapsed altogether from relief and I think being rung out by their emotional distress being released 🤣. My Dad decided he had had enough for the day and decided he'd finish butchering it in the morning because it was winter and down there was barely warmer than the Michigan winter outdoors. Man was he sorry and grumpy at me the next day when he went to butcher it and found it incredibly hard to get anything off because the leftover skin layers had tightened down over the meat in an amazingly tight way. He had one heck of a time getting the meat off. I had little to no sympathy since I had begun noticing this oncoming problem and tried warning him the night before but he didn't listen.

Yeah, but they probably couldn't find soap there just like they couldn't find a knife there. They had to get a knife made from the blacksmith. And thankfully Chris explored to find the blacksmith. People can use other natural cleansing agents such as alcohol, vinegar, salt, ash, and/or hot water. Or soapwort, soap berries, or ammonium from urine if people know about that. But some people are so used to modern ways that they don't think about that. So I don't really fault people for that. The best we can do is to teach people.

That bow drill doesn't look right. It's supposed to look like a BOW - with a curve, so that the line is tight, not a straight stick. "Bring an ember from the forge" - made me laugh out loud. Otherwise, fascinating! Just found this series and I'm loving it. This is the time period I would love to test myself against. How do I find the rest of the series?

Obviosly that young man HAS NEVER SHARPENED A KNIFE!!!!! It's basic kitchen work no matter what the blade looks like or time period it was made. I personally would have made a porridge rather than trying to butcher a chicken, if that option were available and wait for the next day for the chicken in better light or made a small cut around the bum of the chicken and stepped on it's wings and pulled by the feet . If your quick you can get the meat away from the skin in one go, then you just worry about the guts.

Your comment is hypocritical because you want happiness and for kids but not for certain groups of people just because of their immutable features, like gender, that they can't help. All kinds of people complain too, like men and kids. You have double standards cause you were also overly complaining and whining about women by stereotyping they're all bad. If it makes you feel better, some women don't want to marry cause they don't want to bother men.

It was not realistic because in the Iron Age a small knife was a part of your clothing for most people. One should have been issued to each of them with their outfits. Additionally, they knew about cleanliness and washing up around food during the Iron Age. They even knew how to make soap. Likely those who prepared food did not do so in their best attire.
