Who is going to watch the new series of Survivor starting tonight?

I really admire anyone who can go on that show, as well. I doubt that I would last a day in the conditions that those people live in for so long! I bet that it would help me to lose a lot more weight, though, lol! Now that would be one reason to do it! But I really wouldn't be good at the plotting and backstabbing aspect, so I'd rather not. That's why I wouldn't even go on Big Brother, even though you don't have to live in a harsh condition to do it. It's all too much about backstabbing, and I'd much rather be friendly. ^_^

I probably would not last very long either as it would be tough without our basic necessities and having decent meals and baths and family and friends to talk to. You can not trust anyone when being on this show.

I also have another show that I would like to watch at 7:30, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that half an hour. Thankfully, with Survivor being on CHS which is on channel three here, even if I start recording and turn my VCR off, I can still watch CBS. That means that I can record my other show and keep watching Survivor. The only bad thing is, I'll be stuck watching the commericals for that half an hour, lol! But I can live with it. ^_^

Laurie, I think that the first and second series were the ones that I missed, because I felt like I would find it really boring, watching people live on an island. I remember hearing talk about it _constantly_ during the first series. I swear that everyone in the US must have heard the name "Richard Hatch" a billion times, lol! Even though I never saw series one, I definitely knew Richard Hatch by the time he was on the Survivor All Stars edition! *laugh* But wow, once I did start to watch I was hooked big time. At least for a few series. The 'pirate' one with Rupert I thought would be my favorite series of all time, but then came the one with Tom and Ian. Tom is still the only winner yet that I've really liked, of the series I watched. I wanted Ian to win, but Tom was really a great winner. ^_^

Don't feel bad, sunshinecup, lol! I didn't even realize that the show was back on starting tonight until I happened to be looking at the online TV guide at Zap2it to see if there was a new episode of "Scrubs" coming on or not! I saw Survivor listed on CHS and I was like, what? LOL. That's how out of touch I had become with the show. It seems to me like it just went off the air, since I didn't watch the last series and I really thought that it just ended a short bit ago! *laugh* So I would not be even thinking about watching if it hadn't happened to catch my eye, and it really does look like it's going to be better than last series.

Wow! You really do feel much the same as I do! Even the games seemed to be getting really repetitive and boring. The only part that I would've considered watching last series would have been the final episode, but i figured that there wouldn't be much point since my favorite part of all tended to be the reunion show. And there wouldn't be much point for me in watching the reunion if I knew almost nothing about any of the contestants, lol! Anyway, I just read something about one tribe living in luxury and one being poor, or something, and this has gotten me even more intruiged. I may very well be watching tonight! I can at least give it a go. ^_^

I'm wondering why so many people thought last season was boring. Could it be there was so much hype about splitting the tribes by race and then that never really played a part in the game? It's funny because when they are showing these commercials, with all the hype about this big test of humanity, they have already finished taping the show (except for the finale) and they know that the race issue didn't really play a role. Weird, huh?

I am a fan of the show too. Watched it last night and Loved it. I liked how they didn't see Jeff for about two days into it.
