The next season of Survivor

...is planning on dividing its tribes by race: four tribes, one for asians, one for blacks, one for whites, one for hispanics.

I actually like the idea a lot, because white people often do not see themselves as a race, and have more to gain from trying to make racial problems appear a myth, or difference as nonexistant (at least overtly in the current political climate).

But can you imagine the the motivational outbursts?

'We're white, we can win!'
'Let's beat those honkeys and gooks!'
'Hey you guys are gonna lose you lazy Mexican bums!'

Re: The next season of Survivor

I think it's a great idea, instead of ignoring issues, bring them out where everyone can see them.

It isn't much different to having a "girls vs boys" competition though.

Re: The next season of Survivor

So they have choosen to split people by race, so what. One of the points of Surivor is to cause internal conflict between the tribes when they merge and in the past they have done so by splitting people by gender and by age and there wasnt such a uproar.

The simple fact is no matter how much people call for all races to be treated as the same we arent and we dont want to be. Our whole mental make up drives us to seek out and feel most comfortable beside those most like ourselves and its the exact reason why across not on the US but also most of Europe too we find areas of our towns and citys that are almost entily a single race. As such if you split people into race groups then they are alot more likly to form a solid bond as a group and thus when the merge happens you will find the conflict is at its peak when people are forced to balance off the natural instict for survival and the loyalty towards those they have formed strong bonds with

Survivor hardly needs to 'create' anger for ratings as it generates viewers without doing so.

As for the appealing to the idiot's imho Survivor along with The Amazing Race are two of the best Reality TV shows on TV and they are no more 'dumb' than many of the shows people here have mentioned as good shows in the past. I mean shows like Desperate Housewives, Prison Break, Bones, 24, Grey's Anatomy , Supernatural , Smallville, Las Vegas and The O.C to name a few are hardly inteligent shows and hey even some of the proceduals like House, CSI, Law and Order are often just Pseudo inteligent.

A show doesnt have to be smart to be good as long as its entertaining and america often knows how to make entertaining reality tv unlike the UK which decideds to flood us with daily shows showing things of litle intrest just so they can tell themselves that they are making a legitimate show documenting people behavior.

Re: The next season of Survivor

I think the name is a real let down.

They should all be given a food supply each day. One of the portions is poisoned. The one that's left alive is the winner!

I agree it's probably done for ratings, and I doubt the whites will win.
Or whatever we have to call them to be politically correct.

There are varying degrees of worthlessness.

Re: The next season of Survivor

They should split it by IQ levels.

I don't believe in IQ as any decent indicator of intelligence (except how good you are at IQ tests) but it still could be entertaining to see if there is any difference.

I think it would only be fair to also allow atheists a chance at the million dollar prize.

So I'm stupid because I can use my eyes and my brain to realise that human nature is such that we are drawn to familarity. We dont like not feeling part of a group and when we are on the fringes of a group it makes us uneasy and as such on the whole we feel more comfortable around people of the same 'race' as they will often have more in common with us as they will normally share a simerlar background and culture. As such on survivor the chances of strong ties being built up in these 'initial' tribes will be alot more likely to bond and thus form alliances and produce intresting situations later on.

Now ofc race isnt the only factor in making people bond as theres other factors such as gender, age, religion ect ect which can divide people BUT they cant really split people on all these factors hence the initial tribes would either be tiny or they would need 50 people taking part. Last season they split people by age and gender, this season its ethnencity and next season it could be religion.

Additionally due to the culture of each 'race' and the genetics of 'race' it potentially leads to a situation where it gives each tribe a different area to excel in when it comes to the challenges and such like and adds a variety to the challenges (or it will blow the myth surrounding certain races away by showing the stereotypes to be wrong)

I'd find it harder to bond with someone based on the fact we're both white than based on any of those other factos (gender, age, religion).

Just because I'm white and they're white doesn't mean anything in terms of how well we'd get on.
