I haven’t watched Survivor in quite awhile, basically enjoying the fact that The Amazing Race is still the best reality show on TV and leaving it at that.
But one of my readers and good friends Tyler wants a blog about it and a contest like we did for Amazing Race and I truly cannot let you guys down, so we’re going to do one. This time it’s Survivor: Fans vs. Favorites.
Now, I am going to give this show a chance, even though Johnny Fairplay is back and still an idiot from what I can tell. But I heard it got good again last season so maybe this one will extend that streak.
Plus if you have Fans like Eliza Orlins (pictured below) it might just be worth checking out.
(You watch her be the most annoying one and get voted off in the first episode now…)
My only caveat is that the recaps for it will likely be short and sweet, because as we all know, Lost is on the same night and one of those two shows is WAY more important than the other…
What will the contest be? Basically, the same as The Amazing Race:
Watch the first episode and the come back tomorrow for the official Contest Post and add a comment with the three names you think have a chance to win it all.
That’s it. The contest winner(s) will get a blog dedicated to something they want me to write about. Perhaps you’d like me to sit through a truly horrendous movie, like Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, then write a review about it. Or maybe you want me to promote your blog, or some business, I dunno, whatever…it’s up to you!
The main point is for all of us to have fun and see who is the best at guessing insane reality show contestant winners.
So be prepared and watch tonight!
I want to see at least 5 of you join the contest tomorrow and before the next episode, so that it’s actually worth following all year. Of course, I might just get re-hooked on Survivor and not care after awhile anyways! *grin*
Survivor is the more important one, right? No? Ohh…

So many comments to this blog… my mind is about to explode.
I thought we (as a family) were off the Survivor bandwagon, I guess Tyler and I will have to have a conversation of sorts.
Also, this “Eliza” girl isn’t that great looking! Definitely not enough to tune in again. Once again, thanks Tyler!
Other comments pertain to mentions of atrocities like Johnny (self-named) Fairplay and Priscilla Queen of the Desert. Two things I vowed never to think about again.
Happy thoughts, Jina, like Lost and the writer’s strike ending… okay, I’m back to normal now.
Umm… I don’t know if you knew this, but…I sort of do a Survivor recap…um…I even have a Survivor: Micronesia - Fans vs. Favorites page because I’m a crazy fanatical survivor fan…
You doing a short recap when you don’t really like the show kind of feels like charity…the yucky kind of charity. Like when you give the bum on the corner who may or may not be a veteran with two crippled legs, a blind dog, and a drinking problem the change out of your pocket because you know you only have a $10 bill in your wallet and you don’t want to give him that much money but everyone’s watching so you feel like you should give him something even though deep down inside you think he’ll buy booze or drugs with the money and you aren’t even sure if he’s really homeless so you just give him the 43 cents and the lent that has been jingling in your pocket all day and you whisper “sorry, it’s all I got,” then you feel ashamed of yourself but you don’t tell anyone that you had more money in your wallet because you know they’d look at you all ashamed and stuff…
…kinda like that…

Jason - I think I’m that guy
Also, since you don’t do a contest, I thought I would, but I do bow down and worship Inner88’s amazing Survivor recaps…trust me, I have no desire to get that detailed about it
Jina - Sorry, we may have to give the show one more shot!
Well, I don’t know if I would call them amazing but since you did I won’t argue with you…
Please feel free to do a contest. I would love to link to it in my recaps if that would be acceptable.
