Katydidit Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I loved it, all of it, every bit of the social experiment. I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjcs Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I enjoyed the show also. Will definately watch this season... I really like the Cao on the asian tribe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandydawn Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 hmm so many people.....so many tribes. i think i will like it though. hopefully there will be a showmance or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katydidit Posted September 15, 2006 Author Share Posted September 15, 2006 2 upv + Maybe we need to watch that. They all have the idea by now that they're representing 'their people'. Is that a bad thing? Bush sure doesn't represent me. Where's my group, my people? I'd rather bet on those Causcasians than any war-monger. I can't tho. I have other favorites. It's not exclusive on Survivor. I'll be hangin' with the meek --- any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCRebel Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I still think the idea's dumb but am going to like the season anyway just because it's Survivor. Seems like they won't let us hear that old Asian guy's jokes. Cowboy is back- this time he's a Vietnamese refugee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizzie838 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I find it interesting that the number of people in the tribes is five - making one person per tribe the "floater." It'll be interesting to see how that plays out as people start to diminish, both within the group and altogether (i.e., when they merge)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboy is my favorite so far though.I need him to help get rid of my headaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCRebel Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 It's interesting that they picked people with very "cultural" names, this lead me to believe that most of the minorities were first generation immigrants. They seem to be for the most part natural born Americans (except for Cowboy). Wonder if they did that intentionally with the names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarman12 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Four tribe names. i can barely keep two straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rook9566 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I liked it. It will be interesting to see how it all pans out. I thought the yellow tribe made a mistake in voting out Sekou or however you spell his name. It's too early to be making sub alliances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCRebel Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Heck with the tribe names, we all know they're the White, Black, Hispanic, Asian tribes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheStilesClan Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I think this will be an interesting season. We will see what happens I wonder when they will merge? Last season it was after one episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rejuvenated Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Yes, the 4 Tribe set-up on ly lasted a week or two last season. really dont like it. just tune in to see how much sterotypes they will play on.and everyone of them got put up Are you saying you saw a lot of stereotyping? I really didn't. Cao Boi talked about it quite a bit on the Asian team as did the black men. If anything, the Caucasian girl who couldn't last one full episode with out a cute guy to snuggle up to was the most obvious stereotype. Didn't seem like we really saw that much of the Hispanic team. So much packed into so little time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBinSavannah Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I enjoyed the first episode. Will definitely be watching. Are most of the women on these shows desparate or what? That one girl couldn't even wait until she got to know the guy before attempting a shomance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzle Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Even Boogie never talked that way. no.. boogie just wanted to piss and shit on someones face. i am sure if he was on survivor we would have heard the same things and even worse things.

BadAssJanie Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Do I like it? Of course! Am I particularly thrilled they divided them by ethnicity? Eh, i dont know. Being a white woman I found myself cheering for the WHITE people team...I didn't particularly like that feeling. Usually I will just cheer for which ever team I like the most! But since everyone is "representing" I feel like i need to root for my heritage! I don't like that... I can't wait till they form 2 tribes!! Then I can base my favorites on the teams dynamic not their race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarman12 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I'm white and my favorite team so far is the black team, so it figures they lost the challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktbruin Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I think it's a good idea and will definitely be watching. I believe that many stereotypes will be debunked. And in reality, how is this so different than the rooting for your country in the Olympics and other sporting events (Ryder Cup is coming up!)
