On Our TV

Those of you who watch Survivor know that last night Earl won this season of Survivor. But I’m curious to know what you think of Dreamz keepng the truck and then failing to follow through with the immunity idol. The way I see it, that was in a completely different class than lying about who you’re going to vote for. It was a form of verbal contract, where Dreamz received a $60,000 payment for the immunity idol. I understand how impossible it would be to give up the idol, and I really appreciated that Yau-Man said it was his fault for putting Dreamz in that position. BUT, the way I see it, Dreamz needed to either give back the truck or hand over the immunity idol. What do you think?

I am a little late on this news, but the season ending episode of Heroes wound up ranking 6th in the Nielson ratings for the week of December 4-10. Of the shows in the top 20, I watched three (5,6,7 in bold below).

Yul Kwon won the 13th edition of Survivor - “Cook Island”. He narrowly beat out Oscar “Ozzy” Lusth.

I really thought Ozzy should have won. They were both strong contestants, but Ozzy seemed invincible in the immunity challenges. I think that host Jeff Probst may have felt the same way. Jeff Probst said, “It’s the first time I’ve ever felt bad that somebody didn’t win, It was so evenly matched.”

That said, Yul was certainly one of the best players and finding that immunity idol may have been what helped him win the 5-4 vote.

Who do you think should have won?

Well, my nine to five job has been taking up almost all of my spare time. So here are my brief comments on this weeks tv shows:

Desparate Housewives: Does Bree know how to pick them or what?

Survivor: That was a short social experiment.

Dancing with the Stars: Can you say, “follow the rules”?

LOST: Can hardly wait for the premier.

ER: Less drama please!

7th Heaven: Now that was a sermon!

Those are my main comments for the week. Like I said, I haven’t had time for much TV watching.

So what are you looking forward to watching the most?

The Amazing Race

CSI
Desperate Housewives

Take our new poll and let us know.

I haven’t watched Survivor in years, but they just announced the new cast of Survivor and also an interesting twist. Next season, the tribes are going to be divided by race. Yikes!

This move is certain to cause some controversy. Not a bad marketing idea though…
