Survivor: Episode 1-Life without Fairplay

Wow. What an opening episode. That will be the best episode of the series. Johnny Fairplay delivered in a big way. He was incredible, particularly when he told the Fans they were dumber then they looked. He went out with a bang, but unfortunately, the season could possibly go up in flames...

Does anyone care what Eliza, Amy, Cirie & Company will get up to now? Of course not. Fairplay drove the show, right from the get go. Whether you loved or hated him, he made things happen...

Sure there's Kathleen aka the Crazy Lady, but really, is there a whole lot else? Crazy Lady has to survive for a while, doesn't she? Who else would be so open about someone's sexuality or their implants? Gold. Kathleen is Gold!

If Erik is a fan of the show, it would appear he hasn't watched the past 15 seasons. Why throw sand on the other team in a challenge? Do you think they'll want to make alliances come merger time with you? Completely dumb on his part...

The romances between Ozzy/Amanda and Parvati/James are already old. We'll be subjected to that garbage in the coming weeks. Riveting. I can't wait....

Phenomenal first episode, and it'll be next to impossible to get any better than that. I wonder if Fairplay didn't want to do All-Star, but told producers he'd go on for one episode, do his trademark antics, then exit gracefully. Either way, the show lost its true "Star" in Fairplay.

For Blinded Reality,

crazy lady must stay! yesss. ugh, i was annoyed with the "romances" from the start, and the fact that fairplay is gone makes this show almost unwatchable now!

also, I don't know where they got these fans from...I was expecting maybe some tr00 survivor nerds that would start quoting specific episodes or something, ha.

i'm hoping for something truly scandalous to happen, but these contestants seem to be pretty predictable and stupid ... but we shall see!
