In a nod to the popular reality television series Survivor, Shaver Lake will be the setting to another survivalist show premiering on the CW network July 31. "Capture," showing at 9 p.m., features 12 teams of two who are challenged to survive for one month in a fenced-in wildlife enclosure, competing against one another for scarce resources. The winner of that battle takes $250,000. The show is hosted by Luke Tipple, an Australian marine biologist who has hosted shows on Discovery, Nat Geo and Animal Planet. Triple Ridge Productions filmed all ten episodes of the series during April and June entirely in the Shaver Lake area in east Fresno County. A cast and crew of 150 was used to build the set and bring the production to life thanks to help from the Fresno County Film Commission and Southern California Edison, the utility that owns the land around Shaver Lake. The Fresno County Film Commission estimates the economic impact from direct spending from the project totals $1.5 million, while at least a dozen used to help with the show were hired locally.
