Survivor comes to South Africa
Sunday, September 03, 2006

OK, I'll admit I only watched about ten minutes of the first episode. That's for two reasons: firstly, I only started watching forty minutes in, because I forgot all about it. Secondly, it was appalling.

Survivor South Africa, well, sucks. From poor sound quality, to disjointed scenes, to boring, bitchy, pretentious contestants, to hundreds of super-corny super-sentimental shots of clouds and water and clouds and water and clouds and water, to an abominable soundtrack - Survivor is another brilliant example of why I'd really rather just watch American TV.

I agree, it was terrible.

I also forgot to watch. Just as well, it seems.

I never liked Survivor in any case. The Amazing race is miles better.

The current season of The Amazing Race is also terrible.

I can't believe I missed it! I so wanted to see us f*ck survivor up too! We are so bad at copying the Americans, it has become a standing joke!

the aim of a first episode is surely to present the events in a way that is exciting enough to entice audiences into watching again. but somehow it was shot in such a boring way that i couldn't care less.

I really don't like that puppet like thing of a presenter they have - he's wooden, not charming, dull.
