Season 1 episodes (10)

1 Shipwrecked
6/11/10
Cody and Dave must use items they salvage from their life raft to find shelter, build a fire and find food and water when they arrive on a deserted island off the coast of Nova Scotia in the dead of winter - showing what it takes to survive.
2 Failed Ascent
6/18/10
In this scenario, Dave Canterbury and Cody Lundin take on a mountaineer's worst nightmare: stranded on top of a mountain in New Zealand with limited supplies. Together they battle glacial peaks and deep rocky canyons to show what it takes to survive.
3 Out of Air
6/25/10
Each year, an average of 20 people drown while cave diving. For this survival scenario, survival experts Cody Lundin and Dave Canterbury are lost SCUBA divers who are fortunate to find air, but they are deep inside the maze of caves in Belize.
4 Breakdown
7/2/10
Survival experts Dave and Cody head to Peru's "Valley of the Volcanoes" to take on the ultimate lost-in-the-desert survival scenario: a broken down car, miles from civilization, in the middle of a lava-scorched land with few survival resources.
5 Panic in the Jungle
7/9/10
Dave and Cody take on a lost hiker scenario in the sweltering jungles of Laos. The items given to them for their journey include typical (or not so typical!) items a backpacker might carry: a 35 mm camera, condoms and a pack of cigarettes.
6 Swamped
7/16/10
Survival experts Cody and Dave head to the heart of the Louisiana bayou to take on a potentially deadly scenario: lost in a 1,000 square mile labyrinth of water channels and bogs, home to 1.5 million alligators and six species of poisonous snakes.
7 Split Up
7/23/10
Survival experts Dave Canterbury and Cody Lundin take on a nightmarish scenario: stranded, miles apart, in Arizona. Their mission: trek through the tough terrain to find each other and then together make their way to civilization.
8 Soaked
7/30/10
For two boat-wrecked hunters, surviving in the Pacific Northwest rainforest takes keen navigation skills and the know-how to avoid hypothermia and signal for rescue. Dave and Cody take on this nightmare scenario and show what it takes to survive.
9 After the Storm
8/13/10
In a hurricane's aftermath, Cody and Dave find survival resources in an unlikely place-trash. But their journey to the Dominican Republic's coast is littered with creatures that sting, and Dave ignores Cody's advice about hunting the deadliest of them all.
10 Bogged Down
8/20/10
Deep inside Brazil's Pantanal, the largest swamp wetland in the world, Cody and Dave wade through piranha-infested water in search of civilization. Their best bet for rescue is a river but Cody's plan on how to travel on it could sink them both.

Dual Survival could have been hands down one of the longest running truly entertaining outdoors reality based programs on cable television. If only Discovery Channel had left the two original co-hosts, Dave Canterbury and Cody Lundin to remain on the show. But, tisk, tisk, Discovery Channel destroyed the show and disassembled it piece by piece firing what was an absolute irreplaceable duo. Instead, attempting to move forward by shoving down our throats a cocky, nasty, mean and quite frankly crazy man to continue on trying to fill the shoes of two men who were more entertaining and enlightening in their pinky toes than Joe Teti had to offer in his whole stint on the show. And the two newest co-hosts have failed to impress thusfar. If anyone is looking for a new program to watch, I strongly recommend Dual Survival. But only until Dave was fired. And if you want to watch Discovery Channel make their biggest mistake, then continue to watch the episodes with Cody Lundin and ick...Joe Teti. But once they fired Cody that was the last straw. Discovery imploded it's best program. Bring back Dave and Cody and you bring back quality entertainment. Until that happens I only recommend purchasing Seasons 1-3 and 4 if you can swallow that many episodes with Joe Teti.

Matt and Dave are great together. Cody loved em I just wish he would consider wearing shoes so people could be focused more on the survival techniques instead of his feet because the whole time he's walking barefooted it seems like people are worried that he's going to get his foot cut and that he would be a burden to his partner who is trying to get out of there alive . Other than that I think any episode of Dual Survival is awesome need more seasons of it. I'd like to see more Matt team up with anybody

Dave Canterbury Joe Teti and Matt Graham made this show a great success but Matt & Joe are the BEST Duel Survival Team they've put together. Don't get me wrong Dave and Cody they were a really good team they started the show off great and it continued into Matt & Joe but I can't even stomach season 7 those two guys are horrible as a team, I can't even blame Grady Powell because he was great in Ultimate Survival Alaska but Bill is trash, still the first 6 seasons 5 Stars.
