Survivor
This past week I have been exposed to/watched the T.V. show, Survivor. My fiance's brother and roommates really like it so its on pretty much every time I go over there. As I have been watching, my complacency for the show continues to remain especially as I see the contestants compete against each other. There is so much drama which of course is why they keep the show on, however the way these people strategise and end up back stabbing each other is just fa nominal. They will make alliances and all of these strong bonds and friendships but all the while knowing that those will have to end at some point and they will have to throw each other under the bus so they can win 1 million dollars. It is such an interesting concept that the movie hunger games also enacts. But if you dont chose to make any alliances in the game then you have a huge target on your back for people to eliminate you. In this regard I don't love what this show can teach people or just what most people are like in these situations in general. It is kind of sad to see that money can turn people into mean backstabbing lairs. That's just my opinion.

I used to watch Survivor a long time ago too! I stopped of course kinda for the same reasons you mentioned. I like the connection you made with the Hunger Games though! I never thought of it like that but it's so true!
