Survivor: Palau

Last night was the premier of the latest season of Survivor.

And as usual, we watched the first episode to see if there was anyone on the island that we liked enough to watch for the whole season (or until they get voted off)… and the answer… a big fat NO.

I think this series has outlived its entertainment value. We started watching towards the end of season 1 (I think.. it might have been 2)…and each season seems to get more and more…dull. The only ‘good’ seasons recently have been the All-Stars, and the season prior to that (and both of those mainly because of Rupert).

I think the way they started this season was interesting (all 20 contestants in one camp), but I think they ruined it, by separating them into two camps so soon..It would have been better to let the two full tribes interact together for at least the first couple of shows…and then separate them up.

And the one huge survivor question… how come none of these people practice starting a fire with sticks at about the same time they apply? have they never seen the damn show? do they not realize that they need to start a fire?
