So many things to do and how do I waste my time- watching TV of course. It was so damn cold out today, I hate that, I want summer back! I am going to go and walk earlier than I ordinarily do because I almost froze my ass of tonight. Anyway here it is my first review of Survivor Pearl Islands. Now don't get too excited- haha. I know that no one else cares but me and that I am doing it for my own pleasure- that's what makes it all worthwhile.

So where should I begin with my review of the new Survivor? I think I will start with the incredible twist that was already announced. I already knew they would be thrown overboard with the clothes on their backs, but I was unaware of how they were going to get their supplies. This was the part that made the show really interesting to me- because this was the survivors being able to obtain tools that they wanted- mind you from a limited village. It will be interesting to find out what supplies they forgot or which ones are really functional for them. There are a lot of hot men in this Survivor- but right now they are nameless hot guys with little personality. The women are not overly annoying unlike last season (Heidi, Jenna). The two teams, Drake and Morgan, named after legendary pirates are, I believe, pretty evenly matched for physical strength. Something that caught my attention is that this is the first Survivor in a long time without a really old person. The oldest person I believe is in their late 40s or early fifties, possibly even younger.

Another shocking moment for me was when Drake tribe member Rupert- or as I and his team calls him Blackbeard- pillaged the other teams shoes and traded them for supplies. He is a troubled teen mentor- that's what really got me. I couldn't stop laughing for about two minutes. I must applaud the casters of the show on getting a huge burly man for the show, encapturing the image of the pirates that once roamed the islands that Survivor takes place on. Plus, he reminds me of Hagrid from Harry Potter. One of his tribe mates, Sandra, worked wonders with her ability to speak to the locals- getting a lunch of chicken and tin foil for the road, and other helpful supplies. On the other tribe, Morgan, one person stuck out to me- Osten a young black male. He traded all his clothes except his boxers! What a dumbass. I did feel pity for the girl who was only wearing a tube dress, with only a thong on underneath. Luckily she, Nicole, was the first one kicked out- because that would have sucked being in for more than the three days she was stuck on the island. What blew my mind is that both tribes didn't try to get more clothing while in the village. As soon as they were done they paid for a boat ride to their island.

The islands seem really cool- and I hope that more exploration takes place soon. The bug bites that the Drake team suffered were unbelievable. Huge bumps covered every inch of their skin. Rupert again amazed me with his ability to provide for his fellow survivors. And any guy who can feel comfortable in a skirt is pretty cool- but I'm glad I didn't have to see it in person. But despite the bug bites, Drake went on to win immunity in a tight race with the Morgan tribe with their three nude men. I am really excited about this Survivor I think that it will be a good one.
