Skin of Your Teeth Survival is a reality show made famous for pairing part-time survivalists with a real-life survival situation. Led by world-famous prepper and survivalist Wolf Henderson, season 10 promises to be different. This time, none of the contestants are survivalists - they’ve all been picked to fail. But when an EMP hits, the cast scatters, and Wolf is left to guide a group of misfits in a suddenly dark and dangerous world.

They thought their journey would be over when they reached the island refuge, but life isn’t as simple as what they’d hoped. At first glance, Wolf’s home is a prepper’s dream, but there’s a whole new learning curve that comes with living on the island. Regan is frustrated to learn that Wolf’s 12-year-old daughter outmaneuvers her constantly, and more seriously than that, Regan begins to feel like every move she makes is the wrong one - all except with Wolf, that is. But when the true threat is revealed, it will burn down everything the team knows - the good and the bad.
