Survivor (the Television shows)

No this isn't about "the New Survivor", but about the TV series it's based on


Tonight, America's new Survivor season, Survivor Samoa is starting. By tomorrow morning, it'll be uploaded on Youtube and I've seen it. I hope it'll be anything good.

Ah, Nostalgia beckons - I was about 10 Years old when the Series got broadcasted for the first time on Belgian Television, and An real passion was developped for the reality show. The format was so simple, yet so very flexible. A true recipe to success imo. A Year and a Half Ago, I accidentally stumbled upon American Survivor, current Season Being Gabon. I watched it entirely and liked it very much, as it was completely different from the Belgian one. (the Emphasis was on Strategy and Gameplay rather than pure Survival Skills and Strength)

I soon learned that Gabon wasn't the best season of American Survivor, according to the Forum members of CBS. So I searched, and found a number of complete seasons of Survivor. I watched the Majority of every season, except Micronesia and Cook Islands, which I could find and watch completely.

Great Shows both of them The came Survivor Tocantins, which was a lot more positive than Gabon, but somewhat at the same level. The Antics between Coach and Erinn were priceless

Three weeks ago the news season of the Flemish/Dutch Survivor started. It looks very promising to me. Todays episode featured the First Tribal Council (Dutch!) and I must admit: It's played quite hardy. (Tribal Council theme rocks!)

So that brings us back to tonights. Survivor Samoa will start, and I soon expect to get enough material to parodize in "The New Survivor."

So, other people who watch it? I guess it's rather dull to discuss things only I'm interested it

It was very popular in Sweden (actually, Sweden was the first country to show it xD) a few years ago but then people here got very tired of all the docusoaps/reality shows and all the stuff like Survivor (which is called Expedition Robinson or just Robinson here) and Big Brother etc.

But now Survivor has returned here and got both negative and positive critism. It was a success and I liked it. I will watch next season two but the girl that won in Sweden didnt deserve it -.-
She was very smart to be very shy and stay in the background during all episodes but it wasnt fun to see her win -,-

Also in the Swedish version they had to live in a swamp in the begining which kind of sucked

Anyway, I love all the small stuff that becomes hugggeee news in the media here -,-

I knew Survivor was a Swedish Format, and yeah, it has it's ups and downs.

TBH, the Last season of the Dutch Survivor was WEAK, weak beyond imagination: All nice people got voted out in, like, the First FIVE Episodes. (For you Americans - Think Survivor Thailand )

I remember watching the baltic version of Survivor, entitled "Robinsons". If you wandering whats with the name, just read D. Defoe. It was pretty interesting to watch, the first season was filmed in one of the islands near Estonia, the others were filmed in Malaysia. Later it's name was changed to "Jungle" and went a bit hardcore on the trials, and wasn't so popular.

OMG just saw Episode 1 of Survivor Samoa.

Fireworks in Episode 1 - that's really rare, even in Survivor. It seems that Jonny Fairplay finally met his match
