just when you thought TV couldn't get any worse...

[sidekick]

the new Survivor has the teams divided up along ethnic lines, battling asian, latino, white, and african american against each other.

what the fuck were they thinking? (other than, man is this gonna boost our ratings!)

[anewlife]

tv sucks.

read a good book instead, so much better.

couldn't agree with you more. i don't even own a tv. i saw this in the paper.

but seriously, what the fuck!?

[thechix0r]

Yeah I saw that the other day on one of the garbage entertainment shows and I was like, what are they going to come up with next... seriously it's retarded. I haven't watched tV pretty much all summer because it's crap. In the fall I'll watch the couple shows that I do like, but that's it. Movies, books, the net and my extra curriculars are going to keep my time.

Television.

BAH.

Although I did see a good quote about it the other day.

"Television is Chewing Gum for the Eyes."

[Cdn_Brdr]

I heard this too..... I think it's disgusting but I'm not surprised by it. The studios cater to the lowest common denominator and unfortunately they are the majority.

As if racial tension in the US, ok well North America as a whole even, isn't high enough. LET'S ADD TO IT!

I've said it time and again.... I hate reality TV because as a general rule it tends to bring out the absolute worst in people and I fail to see how that's entertaining for anyone.

[G3N3R4L]

this is why i watch LOST! haha


seriously tho.. this season of survivor needs to be pulled

[stephen_c]

next season they're gonna pair up
the vegetarians, carnivores and cannibals.
guess who's gonna win.

[kiMMie]

DISGUSTING

[Rayeine]

Sick is what it is..
Yeah seriously..
RECLAIM.Read a book..it beats sucking on sugar ad's..
and to quote the great Biafra himself "home improvement how about it, throw the tv out the window".

because we all know that the white team will win. what a waste of a season.







































too far?

[decypher]

Yeh that's just wrong. They are going to get a huge backlash on that one.

I agree TV does suck but it makes me feel comfortable because i was risin on TV as a child. I usually only use it for DVD's, news, documentaries, TLC, Discovery type stuff

[Disco_Whore]

That's just wrong in so many ways. I really hope it gets cancelled.

[Dean]

go whites go!!!

[Ree Fresh]

To be honest I was always intrested to see ppl from diffrent countries. See if the ppl join up based on their country and team up with others who say are in the common welth etc.

I could understand ethic background, but race? Thats lame... espcial white and black... at least give us a home land/region to hold on too :/

[Hot Karl]

this concept was better when it was a south park episode.

[crookedking]

i had no idea that survivor was doing that this season. this is going to make it so much better. the shit slanging during the challenges should be really good.

it is divided up based on ethnicity...the whole idea of different 'races' was thrown out quite awhile ago. now we're all just the same race: human; but with different ethnic backgrounds: african american, latino, etc...

[neoh]

where is the eskimo race?

[crookedking]

they prefer the term inuit.

[krisamata]

unfortunately they set back the human race 50 years

its sad and disgusting.

whats even sadder is the people that agreed to be ON the show knowing that they were going to be segregated this way. its sad what people will do for money.

[crookedking]

what aboot half breeds? are they going to be swept under the carpet and ignored just because their parents come from different places? now THAT'S fucking racist.

I have a serious hate on for reality tv http://www.fnk.ca/board/showthread.p...hlight=reality

^you know, i'll admit when survivor first aired, i was hooked. i really liked the show. i used to watch it with my mom every week. in that first season it was something new and cool.

but holy fuck how things change.

[crookedking]

i never watched the first season, so i'm not sure how things have changed. how have they changed?
