Survivor

Watched the first episode of the new season last night. Was alright, typical Survivor. Can't decide if the Exile Island will be a good twist or not. It will be interesting to see how tribes decide who is going to the island. The immunity idol, if found, will certainly come in handy for somebody.

I can't figure how these contestants get picked. I swear that some of them must get picked for comic relief. Cerise has never stayed outdoors, doesn't like the outdoors, but is on Survivor. They have to pick her knowing we'll get a chuckle out of her situation.

And do these contestants shut off their brains when they get on this show? At tribal council, Tina is asked if her tribemates are doing enough and she says 'no'! Why would she say that?!? Even if it's the truth, saying it is not going to make her any friends. And this early in the game you need friends. Better to say we're all pulling our weight and shut your mouth. I did think Cerise was going to get the boot until Tina opened her mouth and said that. People don't like hearing their lazy.

Heard from a friend that Cerise makes it to final four. She's kept because she's not seen as a threat. Based on the first episode I can agree with that.

This is like the 20th running of Survivor. Everyone knows by now that you need a fire, you need water, and you need a shelter. The sooner you start, the sooner the fire is going. Playing baseball really isn't a priority. But its what the young guy group decides to do. Where are their heads at?

So I'll be watching every episode, and like every other season, wondering how the people most capable of survival get voted off while others continue on.
