Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The final reward on "Survivor: Borneo" was originally going to be a bottle of beer. However, since the rewards in the past were so much bigger (consisting of things like a barbecue feast and a night on a luxury yacht), the Survivors thought that the reward was not good enough and considered a mutiny. Since the show's sponsors were coming to the island, the producers were forced to change the reward so that a mutiny would not occur. The reward was changed to a night out with host 'Jeff Probst (I)' at a local bar where the winner got to watch the first 15 minutes of the first episode of Survivor. Kelly Wiglesworth won the reward. What she didn't know was that the "bar" was actually the production crew's mess hall in disguise and that the people in the bar were all actors. (At one point Wiglesworth noticed a neon sign that read "Survivor Bar" and asked Probst what a sign like that was doing in a Malaysian bar. Probst told her that since the crew spent so much time and money there they put a sign up just for them. She believed it.) more

The fourth entry into the highly popular "SURVIVOR" series is shaping up to be the best one yet!, 28 February 2002
Author: Aussie Stud from Providence, Rhode Island

After the disappointing and lackluster "SURVIVOR: AFRICA" edition, many viewers would feel that the SURVIVOR franchise would either need to grease its wheels and reinvent itself or retire with dignity. Thankfully, "SURVIVOR: MARQUESAS" opted for the first choice and it immediately shows in the first episode.

Returning to the 'island / beach' theme, 16 cast-aways are dispatched from a boat off the island of Tahiti in the South Pacific and into two tribes of 8, Maraamu and Rotu, they are to spend 39 days surviving nature and each other in hopes of winning the $1 million dollar prize.

Some new rules that have been implemented to rejuvenate the series is that each tribe is not given any food or fire to start out with. It is also a welcome relief to see the tropical surroundings that are very familiar to those featured in the first "SURVIVOR".

Judging from the first episode, some favorites have emerged. John, Rob, Robert and Vecepia all show promise. The one person standing out currently that could spell future trouble is Sarah. She could be this edition's resident 'Jerri'. As like the other editions, only time will tell who will become the ones we want to root for and the ones we just love to hate. Maraamu were the first to create fire, but Rotu won the immunity challenge. What a great premiere episode! What can I say, I'm hooked already!

1 down, 15 to go - BRING IT ON!
