Survivor VI: The Amazon
January 16, 2003 | Your Ad Here

Posted on 01/16/2003 4:51:38 AM PST by YourAdHere

A new season of "Survivor" begins on Thursday February 13th, and as usual, we Freepers shall be watching.

There are some interesting developments for this edition. For starters, it is confirmed that the two tribes will be split along gender lines. The female tribe will be called "Jaburu," and the male tribe is "Tambaqui."

Personality-wise, Jaburu will have the first deaf Survivor to compete, a 24-year-old woman named Christy. Then there's Jenna, a swimsuit model who has appeared in both Stuff and Maxim. The Tambaqui tribe has an honest-to-god rocket scientist among their members.

You can check out all their bios here.

Let the freeping begin!

They should give a bonus of $1000 to the first contestant to realize that an appearance on Survivor will NOT lead to a career in Hollywood. (A real long shot, I know).

They should call the show "Idiots" instead of "Survivor". I know people who treat this like religion. They are worse than Trekkies.

The female tribe will be called "Jaburu," and the male tribe is "Tambaqui."

Why not just call them "the guys" and "the girls"?

Or, better yet, "shirts and skin"?

What you say is true but can you name anything else on the boob toob that is worth watching these days? Maybe the History channel. The one good thing is we can all catch up on our reading, after O'Reilly of course.

I've no doubt that that's what the viewers will call them!

That all depends what what the show's scriptwriters say.

The Food Network. I don't watch TV so it is not a concern. I think the last sitcom I watched was Sanford and Son.

If there is a Survivor Ping List I would like to be on. Hubby and I are over here busting guts over the women leaving the oars behind. I also thought it was funny they got a washing machine and dryer rack going but no shelter!!!

Hubby says NOW, or some other woman group, is going to complain.

Of course the men and the Magic 8 ball is pretty funny too!!

Very amusing program. Never watched before except the finale episodes. But this was a real hoot. The ineptness of the women was only overshadowed by the braggodicio of the men.

Glad they are weeding out the slackers...I have no patience for people who won't work.

BTW - don't know why they have the models (well, I do know) but boy are they ever worthless players. (Unless they have some competition which involves boiling your underwear - with a fire that took 5 hours to start).
