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!

I would've kept him around cuz he was so unliked. He would've never gotten the million if it was between him and someone else.

I noticed Yul voted for Adam, the only one with any sense. Why did the others vote Jonathan, majorly stupid thing to do!!

I agree they should have kept Jonathan around. You can't trust Poverty and Adam together.

It was a little hard to see Yul's vote, but according to what I saw and the cbs website, the vote was 6 to 1.

The best strategy would have been to get rid of Adam. If he can make it to the final three, I think he can win.

Adam is such a moron...but a physical threat that they should have voted out tonight. Jonathan didn't bother me at all they should have kept him out of loyalty--at least he fished for the group. Honestly, I have to avert my eyes every time Adam's mug fills the TV screen--moron.

I think you're right if Adam makes it to the final 3 he could win, but they probably don't know it will be a final 3. It sure gives the jury more of a choice.
