Suvivor: Nicaragua
Well, this season started off lame. First of all, there have been both professional athletes and disabled people on Survivor before, so I don't understand why they made such a big deal out of both as if it was something shocking and new. I suppose they were counting on viewers not to remember that (and to their credit, most probably didn't). Second, it seems like the majority of young people they choose for Survivor are morons, and I'm not sure I want to follow an entire tribe of them. Conversely, it seems their definition of an "old" tribe is one person with grey hair and everyone else is in their 40's. While that is usually the case in every season, this is the first one to have what is supposedly an entire tribe of them, and I don't feel it is honest enough, although I suppose it was necessary to give them a fair chance against the youngsters. They should probably just stop with the gimmicks (except for the All-Stars seasons, those are always fun), because pretty soon they're just gonna be down to Survivor: Straights vs. Gays (it's pretty much the only category by which they haven't yet divided the tribes), and that's apt to end up offending people. I've been saying for years that they should do Survivor: Winner's Circle and have every single player be a former winner, but I guess not enough of them are willing to come back. Can you blame them?
We'll be back next week with a full TV schedule, and the return of Hero/Douchebag of the week!
