Survivor allows us to choose our own heroes and villains, and as the end of each episode draws near and one or other of the tribes gathers to do the dirty on one of its members and send them home, we know who we would vote for. Yes, these 16 Americans are in it for the money. A million dollars goes to the last person left when the series ends. So let's not be too concerned for the way one or two of them have been treated by their peers in the opening episodes. It's like office politics.
Victory goes to the most scheming.
Anyway, I know what's coming over the next few weeks, and you ain't seen nothing yet. There are some flaws in the show. It is often too elaborate and, sometimes, almost choreographed. The last time I watched, Shipwrecked's producers were using only one camera. Survivor has about 15.
