Will Ferrell's Episode Of Man Vs. Wild Looks About Right

As previously reported, Will Ferrell has taped an episode of Man vs. Wild with Bear Grylls. Here is a preview, you guys.

OK. I mean, I feel like at this point Will Ferrell has been put into third gear and the gearshift has been snapped off at the base (no mechano). It's not so much that he's phoning it in as that he's become such a constant presence in American entertainment that he's going to have some good days and he's going to have some bad days. And although it was said ahead of time that this was being taped as a fun promotion for Land of the Lost, I didn't realize back then how much I don't care about Land of Lost. Very don't! Speaking of phoning it in. They spent an awful lot of money to break Woody Allen's phone on that one, if you know what I am saying. Anyway, Will Ferrell, Bear Grylls, conveniently planted wolf carcasses, Gatorade pee jokes. Helicopters. The episode airs Tuesday, June 2. Weary sigh.
