About the series

History has launched The Selection: Special Operations Experiment, a new military special ops reality series on December 8, 2016. The show is executive produced by Peter Berg, Matt Goldberg, Brandon Carroll and Grant Kahler at Film 45 and Gil Goldschein at Bunim/Murray Productions along with Cem Yeter, Joel Karsberg, Tim Healy, Stephen Mintz and Russ McCarroll. The program is based on a successful British format Sas: Who Dares Wins, with the freshman season containing eight episodes.

30 men and women with no experience in military training are put through the paces by special ops veterans who hail from the Navy SEALs, Army Rangers and Green Berets. The challenges are exhausting both mentally and physically – extreme sleep deprivation, tear gas exposure, interrogation, not to mention the draining non-stop exercises. The series is not a competition in the typical television format, since there are no prizes besides the satisfaction from managing to push one's limits extensively.

Just streamed the first season without stopping!! Why did this not get picked up for 10 more seasons History Channel??!! Seeing what our elite troops go through and rooting for the contestants was addicting! This was so well produced and didn't have tons of language and foulness which is so hard to find now in days! WE WANT MORE OF THIS!!

I don’t get why this show was never re signed for a 2nd season? Anyone know what happened? Was there some legal issues or some other BS?

This show is phenomenal just based off the insight on what special forces go through and most all military personnel. And I love how it’s raw and not scripted to suit needs. The drills / instructors are the real deal and it actually brought back memories lol. This show needs season 2-5. I DEMAND ANOTHER SEASON. GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT.

I just finished the first season on Hulu. I can not believe that's it. People need to see what our military heroes go through to protect us. One of the best shows I've seen in a long time.

Why won't you all do any more seasons? It is a well liked show and I got hooked and now nothing. Why do you do that to viewers?

Phenomenal show. Wife and I watched it in less than a week. Can’t fathom why there isn’t additional seasons. Fantastic tribute to the men and women of the elite forces and the civilians who participated in this show - much respect. Well done.

This is a true show of american grit and should definitely get another season. I would watch this over the vast majority of what is on prime time television.

This is one of the best shows I have watched about internal dedication. I hope there is a second season in the works. I 'd also love to be on that show and push myself to limit and see if i have what it takes to finish.
