Ok so the newest season of Survivor started last night This year the contestants are in Nicaragua The tribes are divided into Young (30 and below) versus Old (40 and older) I don't know who the man is, but some of you NFL fans would likely know the name Jimmy Johnson - coached for the Miami Dolphins and the Dallas Cowboys - he is on the Old tribe (obviously...) Anyways - post your thoughts on the show - whether you watch it, who you want to win, do you like the new tribe divisions? I have only ever missed one season of Survivor (Africa I think) so it is safe to say that I like the show lol I am not sure what to think of the tribe divisions yet, there are a lot of different personalities on the Older tribe - personalities that are definitely going to clash (which makes for better TV I guess) but I don't think that the the Older tribe is going to be able to compete with the youngsters. This held true because last night the Older tribe had to vote out a member of their tribe as they lost the immunity challenge...I guess we'll have to see what next week brings!
LOL, desperately trying to get conversation for that special 375 eh I USED to like survivor... But haven't seen this one advertised yet. So don't spoil it for me I don't have time to watch much TV.. I might download the episodes though, or setup my media center to record them I wonder when Australia will hear about this one...
*acts all innocent* How can you tell??? LoL I forgot that not everyone around the world is seeing this at the same time - I won't spoil anything for you At least not anything more than I have already said :lol:
LOL... You can spoil all you like. I'm downloading the episodes as we speak so I won't be behind XD I'll do my best to assist with that progress too.. I'm going to change a thread of mine soon (my poll to something new... but will involve posting ). That'll be a morning job. Off to bed for now.
Possible spoilers for the first episode below. I tried not to include any, but who knows... Spoiler I've always watched Survivor, probably started when I was twelve or thirteen. The group this year seems interesting, and I'm very happy about who got voted off already I'm not really liking this 'Medallion of Power' thing, but I think I would if instead of it just alternating between tribes when it gets used, it just goes back 'up for grabs' and when you win reward you have to choose between the reward and the Medallion, and the losing tribe gets the one you don't pick. That could make for some interesting competition and strategization. Instead... Ehhhhh. Hard to get many first impressions on the first day, especially when there are twenty castaways running around. The only year I picked a favourite on the first day (excluding all-star games) was Samoa - Russell was easily my favourite from the start. Hopefully somebody will do something interesting next week, put them on my radar.
I saw this yesterday and was, at the very least, entertained by it. Probably not so hyped about this one because Survivor is so old and I've watched several seasons of it. But I haven't watched on in awhile so I thought I'd give this one a try when I saw advertisements for it. (Also cause all of the other shows I watch just ended or just finished their season.) I was really interested to see what would go on with the one celebrity dude on the old people's tribe. I absolutely hate the young tribe though lol. Their attitudes just piss me off. (Spoilers talking about the show): Spoiler And when they all came in to the challenge doing that stupid dance I was cringing for them. It was really idiotic. God and that 'Fabio' kid.. damn he really is so stupid. I don't really like the girl who got the medallion at first either. It's not that she's stupid or anything I just hate her personality for some reason. Not really a huge fan of any of the players just yet either. But I was glad they voted off who they voted off because dayum they were annoying.
I noticed the crotch blurring too and i was like ughhhh. Why don't they just keep their pants on? I mean I know it's hot and dirty but still!!!
I watch survivor since season 2 or 3, but for some reason this season isn't as interesting as the seasons in the past. Maybe its because we all seen the show a million times over, and usually the winner ends up to be the person who's not as hated by the jury. Anyways, i missed the first episode, well, there's always the internet. :lol:
I agree, I'm not captivated yet. Tbh it'll be hard to match up to the epicness of last season where almost every tribal council ended in some awesome blindside. Plus last season started so amazingly. Heroes get onto to beach looking all heroic, then the villains come and blow sand in their faces. Yay villains. x) I think every season could be more interesting if it just had Russell in it.
