King of the Jungle

I just came across, quite by accident, a reality show on the Animal Planet channel called King of the Jungle.  They ran two episodes and I enjoyed them.  The king was selected by feat of strength competition and then king chose two people to be up for elimination.  Those two people then enter a competition encompassing speed (first one to push the buzzer type thing) knowledge (answer right you get a shot, answer wrong, your opponent gets a shot) and intuition.  The shot you get is to choose the proper rope to sever that will topple your opponent's amulet.  I see that it is also on for two hours tomorrow, but I don't know if those will be new episodes or reruns of today's. 

I tried looking up the show on the Yahoo TV site but its not even listed either alphabetically or under reality shows (Man there are a lot of reality shows listed).  At least that is one of the channels that my TV Guide does list so I can watch for it in the listings.  It was an OK show but if it interferes with anything else I like, its out.

I would have thought that almost any program on Animal Planet would be considered reality TV. Or maybe I am thinking of the National Geographic Channel. Normally I can't get off of Animal Planet fast enough. I had thought about taking it off of my remote but now I will pause and look for this.
