Man I remember this show, my 12 year old brain was fooled into thinking this was an actual reality show

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Yeah, I think if you didn’t know any better that it could seem really real. What would have been insane was if this kind of show came out before the internet was super popular and it could have been like The Blair Witch Project.

[@ronniekitchens6502]

Deadass. I was arguin with my sisters saying this real

[@niadurant4846]

Me and you had the same experience 😂

[@HectorJimenez-ee9zi]

I remember watching this as it was airing back 2013, and i don't know why, but this show was just so memorable. I was always looking forward to the next episode.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Yeah I agree, I started watching it with my mom when it aired live. She did not really think the acting was very good, which is probably true. But it was interesting and I kept with it. I liked that it was this mix of Survivor and Lost. I wish it would have continued on especially since it ended on a cliffhanger. Thank you for watching!

[@HectorJimenez-ee9zi]

@@DylanG_MovieReviews i thought the acting gave the show a more grounded or real feeling as they were playing ordinary people.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

I think that it did for parts of the show, but then other parts the acting was way to subdued for what they were experiencing. Just they were just kind of there and not really acting the way a "normal" person would react in that situation. But as long as you like it, then it does not really matter. It was something that I could suspend my disbelief so I could still enjoy the show.

[@princessmimi6791]

when I was watching this show I really thought it was a reality show

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Well that is good then! They got their point across, I hope you realized after someone got “killed” that it actually wasn’t one though!

[@princessmimi6791]

@@DylanG_MovieReviews The show was pulled from tv I went back to find the show and it was gone but this was years ago and i was only a kid

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

@@princessmimi6791 I’m not sure if you mean you are looking for it to watch somewhere, but the first season is streaming on the Tubi app currently.

[@pineacrekennel]

I have binge-watched Siberia on Tubi numerous times. I am totally hooked! I recently found out from Joyce, that the writer is working on a sequel. No air dates and no idea if it will be a movie or another series. Great job on your review, by the way, without giving away any of the "good" stuff.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Yes, I have seen that too. I think the last I saw the creator was trying to make it a graphic novel or comic series. Thanks for watching!

[@jonathanoscategui2678]

@@DylanG_MovieReviews ooooo it should definitely be a series!! Maybe we can get two or three more seasons max on TV or Tubi.

[@shortnsiper1322]

You can watch it free on tubi tv. :D

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

That’s great info for anyone who is wanting to watch it! Thanks for sharing!

[@levischorpioen]

So, the Siberia rabbit hole runs deeper and I can't believe I can finally tell someone about my findings: There’s a little-known Russian reality TV show that was supposed to be aired in 2017 called Game 2: Winter. The premise was that 30 participants would embark on a survival trip on a remote Siberian island and crimes such as rape and murder would be permitted. Looking at the logo which uses the exact same font as Siberia, its insane premise that is essentially just Siberia but “bigger and bolder” as we’re used to from reality game shows, the connections are pretty easy to spot. It was later revealed to be a social experiment before filming could begin, but I have a sneaking suspicion that what it really was was a failed follow-up to Siberia that didn’t get made due to the major controversies surrounding its claims.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

That sounds interesting, I doubt it is related though. What you described sounds like real, while Siberia was purely fictional. It also wouldn’t make any sense to have a Russian connection to a follow up to Siberia considering that it was an American production that was shot in Canada.

[@levischorpioen]

@@DylanG_MovieReviews Haha, that’s why it’s a conspiracy theory: I believe the story of the Russian social experiment is a hoax. The producer who is named to be attached to the project has zero online presence, the only results relevant to his name coming back are those related to this show. Why would the show, presumably a brand-new concept, be named “Game 2”, with the subtitle of “Winter”? If this is Game 2, what is Game 1, and why specify Winter if it’s not the theme of the show like Survivor has done for almost all of their seasons (as well as similar reality competition shows). Why use the exact same logo? Why did the hype originate from American headlines if it is indeed a Russian production? I personally believe there to be too many coincidences for these projects not to be related. It all reads like a satire of reality competition shows to me, kinda like Siberia was. Maybe it was a marketing stunt to shop the show around after show around after NBC gave up on a follow-up. Maybe it’s an abandoned ARG, it could be many things related to this project. I could very well be wrong about all of this, but the connections are too interesting to ignore IMO. Either way, it’s cool to see people talking about Siberia. I think the show was a great throwback to OG reality competition shows and it provides great commentary on society.

[@millerman9991]

Great review my friend. Need 2 check this out.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Thanks, I was a big fan of this show. It can be a little hard to find, but if you can get it definitely give it a watch.

[@Al.Get2It]

Nice review bro 💪🏽🔥

[@NateYet]

$500,000 split between 14 people isn’t a good deal? Heck, I’d happily take $37,000 to live in a camp for a few winter months with tons of other people

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

I mean independently of other things it might be a good deal. But in the show, they are asking the contestants to do a lot of stuff compared to what “other” shows do. Hell, Survivor which this show is kinda modeled after is about 1 month and the prize is $1 million. So if you look at it like that then it’s not a good deal.

[@Alex-dz8wl]

This show is insanely well written and researched. Several years ago my dad and me analyzed littleraly every second of it. We watched through probably a dozen times. We are like 99% percent sure what's going on.... Too bad there's no second season.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Yeah it was experimental and probably would have done much better on a streaming service than prime time network television. At one point the creator wanted to continue it in a graphic novel, but who knows what the status of that is or if it will ever happen.

[@michaeldolby735]

I thought this show was real at 1st till the one lady was 0n The Real House Wives and said she was an actress on the show. the ending was confusing., to much needed explain and made no sense. I would watch the show if it came back.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Yeah unfortunately the ending didn’t give any answers (presumably to start answering stuff in Season 2) because it was cancelled.

[@chrisvelazquez206]

I had never heard of this show when the pilot episode aired, so I sat down to watch, but then I saw Carolina's first confessional and I instantly recognized her. I said to myself "That's not Carolina from Colombia, that's Joyce Marie Giraud from right here in Puerto Rico!". So I figured out that this had to be scripted, and I was waiting for the twist, and when it hit, it was amazing, it hooked me instantly. It was extra fun when I convinced my friend to watch the pilot with me afterwards, he hates Survivor style shows, but I convinced him to wait till the final five minutes. He didn't recognize Joyce, so seeing his reactions to a contestant dying was so much fun. Afterwards, we were hooked, and then to find out it got canceled, not even like just one more episode to wrap things up, we were beyond bummed. This was such a good show and it deserved more episodes and a proper conclusion.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

I completely agree, I wish we at least got an explanation about what was going on. I haven’t checked, but I need to see if the creators ever talked about what they had planned for the future. I’m pretty sure I knew going into the show that it was fictional, but I did enjoy the almost Blair Witch Project like filming and style (although Siberia had much better cameras). Unfortunately I’m afraid we will never get the answers we want, but we can always hope for maybe a comic series or book to come out and continue the story.

[@chrisvelazquez206]

@@DylanG_MovieReviews Agreed on everything. How I wish they'd release at least a book to explain everything, give us some closure.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

I looked up some stuff after I sent the last message, and apparently the creator of the show has mentioned in the past that we would get a second season whether it was actually a show or a graphic novel. But who knows at this point.

[@supjay3945]

Yes. It needs season 2

[@UnitardZZack]

That will never happen now. The moment I heard that Johnny Wactor died, this was the first thing I thought of after the obvious.

[@_kim123]

I was just telling my sister about this show today. O remembered that we're in Siberia but I couldn't remember the name of the show. 🙄I found thw name because one of the contestants is on Housewives of Beverly hills at some point and I looked her up. But I always knew it was fake because the reactions of the cast were unnatural. But I really wanted a second season. I want to know what was happening in this story.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Yeah, my mom watched Real Housewives and was telling me about how the she was on it. Thanks for watching!

[@acspirit6842]

When it comes to networks, 2 million viewers aren't enough, when they get paid to advertise for others during the commercials in those time slots. Sad but true. The almighty dollar is worth more to them than the enjoyment of over two million households.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Unfortunately that’s usually how it goes. I think I read somewhere that the creator of the show was trying to get a graphic novel continuation of the show, but that was a few years ago. So it seems like it’s probably not going to happen.

[@djmutt2000]

Wow the new Total Drama season looks epic

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

That's actually kind of hilarious! Thanks for watching!

[@Derpyderp34567]

I remember this show as both me and my mother had watched this. We were like what the fuck by the ending of it. I don’t think I thought back on it back then as I was an kid. But it was so good

[@Godzilla2000Zero]

RIP to Johnny Wactor

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Truly, it’s a terrible situation. His star never really took off, but the one thing about being an actor is that your work will live on.

[@Godzilla2000Zero]

@@DylanG_MovieReviews Yeah I didn't realize it was him until yesterday when I read he was in Siberia and I finally recognized him. Definitely a loss and he deserved a bigger career and he was also my favorite in the show.

So was them riding in the back of the truck And the Russian soldiers running the other way. The end episode.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

I think so.

[@Bs60182]

That show was like Survivor meets Lost.. I was actually looking for videos on what would have happened if there was a season 2.. I thought it was really good.. I didn’t watch it when it was on TV so I guess I was part of the problem of why it was canned..

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

I don’t think they ever released any of the future plans because at one point the creator wanted to continue it in a comic or graphic novel. Unfortunately, I doubt that it will happen at this point. It’s been off the air far too long at this point.

[@chrisroach8385]

My best friend from high school produced this 😎🤟

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

That’s awesome! It was such an interesting and unique show, I wish that it had continued on.

[@emmanuelbracey4090]

Bring back siberia 😂😂😂😂

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

I wish it was that easy, the worst part was it ended on a cliffhanger.

[@SmaxyMiguel]

The show is free on you tube.

[@DylanG_MovieReviews]

Awesome, I didn’t know that. I’ve seen it on Tubi for free and obviously DVD.
