Any 'Survivor' fans?

Yes, I'm a self-proclaimed reality whore.

Survivor, the Amazing Race, the Biggest Loser, the Ultimate Fighter

Anyways, if you're a fan, the new season starts tonight @ 8pm.

usually by the 2-3 Survivor, I can tellif I am gonna like it, so for me, it depends.

Not I.
Saw one episode of season 1 and never watched it again.

Guest Thu Sep 25, 2008 3:36 pm

I hate(d) Survivor.

Guest Thu Sep 25, 2008 3:47 pm

I occasionally watch the Amazing Race if there is nothing better on tv. I just don't get into many of these reality shows.

Dragon's Den on BBCA is sweet though.

I always thought their "Eye Of The Tiger" song rocked.

The thing that really pissed me off and I think where reality TV fails is that they over-edit it and make it appear scripted...

I don't really consider Survivor to be a reality show as much as I consider it to be a gameshow.

Guest Thu Sep 25, 2008 4:27 pm

I'm full of piss and vinegar today... darn, I said it too.

I really gotta get a handle on this brain-mouth thing...

I think I saw something on The Today Show or one of those types of shows that there's actually "Reality TV Show Acting Classes" you can take now. What will they think of next?

are we not allowed to say piss anymore?

Until they start doing them with naked women from my list and a select group of others, I have no interest. And the first contest has to be spin the bottle. And all shows must end with a make out session with all the contestants left.

Any "Survivor" Fans?

Not here, baby. Ick. If I wanted to watch unwashed people sweat, I'd hang out at the local icehouse.

Icehouse?

The band, or the beer?

They're basially outdoor bars here -- see Wikipedia quote.

In Texas, former ice houses are a cultural tradition, with many now converted into open-air bars. In the region of Central Texas and the Texas Hill Country, the word "ice house" has become a colloquialism for an establishment that derives the majority of its income from the sale of cold beer, particularly such locally-produced labels as Shiner Bock, Pearl, or Lone Star. One of the most famous is called "Ice Bar", located in downtown Austin.

Guest Thu Sep 25, 2008 7:37 pm

Hmm, Shiner.

Guest Fri Sep 26, 2008 9:59 am

No, I dont think there are.

Where in Texas are you, Aggie?

Houston. I never thought of icehouses as being Austin-based as there's a bunch here.
