I love the show, it's very interesting to observe people under these conditions, competing for the money. The psychology, the challenges, the drama. Good stuff. To be honest, I have only watched three seasons from start to ending. I believe it was Season 2, the Cook Islands season, and the current season. Not sure why, but as much as I enjoy the show, if I don't find some of the participants interesting or compelling in the first episode, I pretty much skip the rest of the season. Steve, Survivor is not so much a show about realistically surviving the outdoors, but a game show that takes place under castaway type conditions.

I have to admit I don't enjoy this season and didn't watch much of it on TV, although bored one day watched it on the net. I'm seeing many changes I don't like, immunity idols in mass, ect., Probst running his mouth all the time. Chase talked Jane off the perch last show or so ago and Probst convinced her to stay on....Lately he's getting on my nerves.
Another problem is the tribe switch ups at the wrong time leaving good players dead in the water, no tactics in that at all. It's starting to appear the directors are playing with the show and moving things in the direction they want, often screwing up a players tactics. Tribal council is now the place where Jeff gives away all. Course the real time of these councils average 3 hours and we see a few minutes. Guess it's hard to keep ratings after fan vs favs, heroes vs villians. |

I know. I'm not knocking the show or the people who like it. It's just my taste in television. As I said, I like a lot of stuff I wouldn't recommend to anybody else.

I know if I had to eat snails, wipe my arse with grass and sleep next to a stinky woman with hair hanging out her bikini like a jewish beard, I'd call that survival. |
