SURVIVOR: COOK ISLANDS - Official Thread
My somewhat fertile brain | 24 August, 2006 | Cuz_it_aint_their_money

Yes FReepers and FReeperettes, its time once again for another season of Survivor.
This time they are in the Cook Islands, in the middle of the South Pacific.

I was going to start off this thread by informing you all about how Mark Burnett’s Production Company has decided to split the tribe along ethnic backgrounds. But that subject has been pretty much beaten to death on at least three different threads. So. . . .

I would like to point out that for all their talk about “minorities” not applying to the show as much as “whites” and about how they had to send their casting producers out to round up minorities, they apparently didn’t have to look too far.

Of the 20 contestants recruited for this season, no less than 13 are from California!
And of those 13, NINE are from the greater Los Angeles area!
So much for diversity!

The Hispanic tribe is going to throw the challenge? They want to get rid of Billy, but that's dumb.

I guess :) It seems like a slow night on FR in general, other than the Chavez & Nutjob threads.

BWAHAHAHA! The Hipanic tribe is the only one looking through the book. Probst: "Really taking their time."

Asians wins!

Hispanics are too obvious. Probst: "They're having a holiday."

Why is Billy even there? He already knows he's going home.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open my mouth and remove all doubt. =)

I am surprised that they think throwing a challenge is a good thing in the long run. It will heavily effect how other players view them when the single tribe is merged.
