  • Survivor...now with NEW racial segregation (tm)

    Bright idea of the day:




    Seriously, how can anyone imagine this is a good idea?

    I agree.

        It's a sad - and probably at least marginally successful - attempt to revive the ratings of a show that has been kept going long past its prime.

        Survivor was a ridiculous concept. Torture some people for a while, force them to sleep in the open without shelter, prevent them from making shelter... then make them play stupid mini-games and argue with each other.

        And I have NO idea where they find the people to play this game, either. None of them displays any real human motivations. They're on the show for a few weeks, and yet they're all weeping openly when they miss the change to read a letter from home. I'd miss my wife and kids terribly, but when presented with the option to win the game or read a letter... c'mon, folks!

        So you've got idiotic (yet business-savvy) producers, idiotic (and emaciated) contestants, and a subhuman-level-intellect viewership... and it's a SURPRISE that they've played the race card to garner more ratings?
        The Internet - where men are men, women are men, and teenage girls are FBI agents!

        I'm the least you could do
        If only life were as easy as you
        I'm the least you could do, oh yeah
        If only life were as easy as you
        I would still get screwed

          Which is why we've never seen a single episode.

            Ditto, I have never watched one episode what so ever, and laughed at those who did!

              Never watched it and after this it will probably be slammed of the airwaves.

              Interesting idea and will probably show todays problems to well for some. Probably end up in a huge punch up.

                Thinking about it, Survivor isn't so much worse than military boot camp, only bootcamp takes LONGER.

                  I don't see it as "segregation" but as "race war"

                  That headline has a big agenda that comes with it.

                  My prediction is that the tribes will operate much more efficiently and without as many petty personal issues.. and ratings will therefore drop into the sewer.

                      Wow. I have to admit I was wrong. I expected KvH to be the first to bring idiocy into this thread, but TP actually beat him to it. Not to be outdone, KvH brought it to a new level.

                        Now there is a really stupid comment. I think the word muppet comes to mind.

                          Sorry, just kidding. We obviously have differing opinions about certain subjects. Let's leave it at that.
