It's on! Survivor 19 thread...

Re: Preseason Survivor 19 thread...

The first Survivor episode i watched was the season finale of the first season. I've seen every episode since. But I was in Canada on a trip over the summer and one of the channels up there was rerunning the entire first season in one day. When I first stumbled onto it, they were about four episodes in and I thought it was a spoof of Survivor. Every thing involving Jeff Probst seemed very serious and dark. Seemed like the show was taking itself way too seriously at the time. I'd watched a good 10 minutes before I realized it was actually Survivor.

Just funny to see how the show has changed through the years.

That would be the Outdoor Life Network up here which also shows reruns of other Survivor series and old Amazing Races etc. I watched some fo that first Survivor, much different than today.

The Natalie chick from this upcoming season is every bit of all right. Of course, she'll probably be gone after the first episode.

Apparently, they are a lot easier on them than they used to be. You don't get the crazy weight losses that you did in the earlier seasons.

 

Re: Preseason Survivor 19 thread...

Well, when you have food rewards every other episode and the teams start off with water and don't have to do much to get matches and fishing gear, it's bound to happen.

 

Re: Preseason Survivor 19 thread...

So, based on pictures and bios alone, who goes first?

 

Re: Preseason Survivor 19 thread...

When do it start?

 

Re: Preseason Survivor 19 thread...

Bizarre... same with me.

And, yeah, the ditched Fear Factor challenges about 7 years ago.

Marisa is all kinds of hot.

 

Re: Preseason Survivor 19 thread...

I've watched every episode of this show, and, barring something unforeseen, will continue to watch it as long as they want to keep making it.

My money's on the female cop. Mrs. T. once spent a few days in Campton, N.H., and that town is the fourth horse of the Apocalypse. Survivor should look pretty easy to her.

 

Re: Preseason Survivor 19 thread...

It's strange, I've met several former Survivor contestants over the years, either at sporting events or on flights and I know I've told the story about sitting next to Big Tom for a cross-country flight where we talked Survivor for five hours straight.
