Hate This and I Love You

this post is about a tv series called survivor.. I've been spending a lot of time recently watching survivor.. just done with season 2 and 3.. skip the first season and watching the 4 season now..

the show is interesting.. 16 people divided into two tribes and try to survive on their own for 39 days in the nature.. there will be challenges for the teams to compete to get rewards and immunity idol. and the team that lose on immunity idol challenge need to vote out their member off.
the concept is very nice, I love it.
however the shows can be very frustrating to watch.

When I heard word survivor, the image that comes out is Bear Grylls or people like him.
but the one that advanced to the finals in this game sometimes are weak people. those that will not really survive if left out in the wild. the winners are sometimes are ordinary people that did not stands out that get voted because he/she is more likeable than the other competitor.

I didn't really have any problem with the winner from season 2 or 3. but season 4 is just hard to watch.
I've watch season 4 until eps 4 now, but eps 3 is the climax that make me frustrated.
the tribes are ROTU and MARAAMU. I like ROTU because the tribes are strong and everyone is diligent
Rotu is the real tribe that can survive in the wild (particularly the location of season 4), even if it is not a game.
To me, That is SURVIVOR.
MARAAMU on the other hand, filled with lazy people such as Rob, Sean, Vecepia, and Sarah. To me, this people are NOT SURVIVOR. However, there is one guy that, in my opinion, stands out among the others, even ROTU tribes people, his name is HUNTER. From Episode 1, even if his tribes keep losing, I still look at him as a real SURVIVOR. ROTU is a SURVIVOR TRIBE, but Hunter is a SOLE SURVIVOR. He knows how to survive, he knows what important, what to do and what should be done to survive. Isn't that survivor?.
But he get voted out at episode three, because his tribe is filled with idiots that did not have ethic, and lazy asses. and, I've checked wikipedia and the winner is Vecepia. WTH!!!. sometimes I really think that this shows might be better called RELATIONSHIPS SURVIVOR IN THE WILD.


this show is just bittersweet. It is the perfect definition for bittersweet to me.
