New ‘Survivor’ to split teams by race

survivorDoes anyone else find or anticipate a smashing success of a season in the critiques department? CBS announced the plans for the upcoming season of ‘Survivor’.

Get ready for a segregated “Survivor.” Race will matter on the upcoming season of the CBS show as contestants will be divided into four tribes by ethnicity. That means blacks, whites, Latinos and Asians in separate groups.

The announcement was made on CBS’ Early Show. Host Jeff Probst says the idea “actually came from the criticism that ‘Survivor’ was not ethnically diverse enough.”

Did anyone else think that the previous seasons of ‘Survivor’ lacked a bit of “color”? I just find this recent news of the upcoming season appalling. Segregating tribes by ethnicity. What are we going to explain to the youth of America.

    Sounds like a good Chappelle Show skit. Too bad he’s run off with the $…

    His mexican replacement Carlos Mencia did a good skit w/ ethnic olympics.

    eh Carlos Mencia can’t replace Chappelle. Chappelle had a sort of air of at least a shred of… whats the word I’m looking for… professionalism, maybe? dignity? I don’t know, can’t exactly pin it down. Mencia is just a bunch of screamed racist jokes.

    I don’t think this will matter at all. I don’t understand why people are so jumpy when it comes to anything with the word race in it. (Including bicycle races.)

    Frankly, I agree with Matthew. What the fuckin’ big deal? It’s just some stupid stunt to shock people. And, stop the fucking presses, it’s working. It’s kind of like terrorism insofar as it’s only effective if we let it affect us. Imagine if everyone looked at this and went, “Split up by race? Who cares?”

    Meh, I just don’t understand why people are racist, so I guess I’m not the right person to talk to about this.

    i For one think that this is going to be great T.V. And that is all it is T.V people!!! This is not as important as people are making it out to be. If you dont want to see it dont watch. We should all be worried about bigger things such as how bush is fucking up the world!!
