Just for once, a serious Sucks thread |
Lead | |
|
I'm not in any position to rally people up, hell, even if I could, it wouldn't matter. Like everyone else whos been here longer then Palau,(further
back then that actually, but if I went back further, I wouldn't have too big an audience) I bemoan the state of Sucks. People don't realize their
place, including me. I know what's funny, and I consider myself quite intelligent, but I don't have the verbal chops to be a Suckster, so I should just
relagate myself to a bemused observer. I didn't, when I posted here, and I finally admit to being a bane on Sucks proper. So we got that out of the way, a
lot of n00bs and posters here suck,right? Right, but Sucks' downfall has been attributed to mactors. Mactors suck, we should flame the hell out of them,
but listen here, get cozy, it is the production staff that is at fault. No, not Lynn Spillman or other recruiters, it is the fault of the editors, the retarded
as shit challenge production staff and Mark Burnett himself. He has totally lost touch with what makes Survivor a good show, interesting people and epic
locations. But of course he listened to dumbass casual viewers who don't know what the fuck they want, and make stupid demands. Neither do most Sucksters,
who think that some poor slob mactor whos just trying to earn a living is at fault. This is of course, just my opinion. Survivors downfall is a complex
situation which doesn't require bitching(like I'm doing right here), but actual, serious study.

There, now that that's out of my system, I'll just say that the show stunk a long time ago too. It's just that once too many seasons passed by,
the viewers, the hardcore fans, the editors, and the players themselves have all gotten too picky in what they're looking for in a winner. They want the
winner to be "nice" like Ethan, manipulative and powerful like Rich, an endgame underdog like Jenna, "heroic" like Tom, humble like Danni,
crafty like Yul, middle-America like Tina, black like Earl, etc. etc. etc.
At this point, it seems like no one's ever happy with the winners anymore. |

You're basically right, but you can't ignore the fact that the show is on the air for 8 years and because there's 2 seasons a year it feels almost twice as long. It's only natural that a show past it's 10th season to go on a steep slope with the occasional good season. The only show you can compare it to is L&O. Since it's 11th season it started to get creatively weak but it still had a couple of good seasons (particularly the last one, which I hope survivor can do the same). |

Yes, of course theres a drop in "quality", but Survivor has always had sledgehammer editing(Most of us just happen to see through it). The editing and production crew doesn't keep up with the times, and have no idea what people want. |

There's a direct correlation between HIIs and 18+ players with shitty seasons. I don't see why the fuck CBS hasn't done anything about it.

Wow you know what, I can't believe it took this long to take somebody to say this, since this definitely hasn't all been said before. Thank you, Dr.
Will Hatch, for being original and really digging deep into the faults of Survivor. Thank you. The time I have spent on this thread was WELL spent.

The difference between this thread and the yearly bitch threads is that it puts the target on the right perpetrators. All the othber bitch threads either just
bitch incoherently, or blame mactors. Think of it this way, if you were a mactor, would you give a shit if you were upsetting Survivor fans? Also, the very fa
that they have to do all this recruiting shows the lack of quality of genuine applicants. But we've had recruits since season 1. Gawd, fucking Rudy was a
"mactor" if you want to get technical, since he was Eco Challenge which was briefly on VHS video. It doesn't matter what his intnetions were.
According to this site, going on tv at all=mediawhore. Everyone is a mediawhore on here, and all should be roasted, but people don't understand that it is
all SEGs fault for the drop in quality, not the whores.

TAR has horrible as shit editing and they're winning Emmys out the asshole. Survivor has a loyal fanbase, so they're free to try out new things without
the fear of completely losing their audience. And thank God they try new things. So what if the poor vs. rich twist sucked? It added to Fiji's horrific
list of suck, but at least they tried something new. And so what if there are mactors? It just makes you appreciate the real people even more.
I think production obviously doesn't do a 5 star job, but they do their best and with China/Micronesia being two epic seasons back to back, I have no room to complain about the editing. Hopefully Gabon will be even better. |

For the record, I think the show made quite the upswing last year over the horrific garbage that was the Cook Islands/Fiji year (even with the really bad part
of Micronesia from ep 5 to the merge). As always I go into this season optomistic and with an open mind. Complaints about how a season sucks before it even
begins fall on deaf ears with me.
...although I agree that if only BB8 Zach was casted it would automatically solve Survivor's problems ;) |
