"Pay per view for Canadians"

Posted by Bravehart on 09-17-06 at 10:57 AM
Just saw this on canoe.ca for those of us without a recorder.
Didn't know where else to post this.

"Believe it or not, 'Survivor' is coming to pay-per-view.

CBS and Bell ExpressVu have entered into a deal to offer ‘Survivor: Cook Islands’ on pay-per-view in Canada.

It will be the first time in Canada, that a U.S. television series will be available the next day on pay-per-view every hour on the hour. The pay-per-view broadcasts will be commercial-free.

The episodes will be available from 6 a.m. Friday to 6 a.m. Saturday on channel 401.

The deal also includes a ‘Survivor Rewind’ feature. Viewers will be able to watch the most recent four episodes back-to-back on Wednesdays."

Don't where else to post this brag so here it is. I think I was one of the first to suggest young vs. old, Male vs. female, upper vs. middle class, race vs. race. And now I forsee EPMB pitting diverse sexual beings against one another. ie Gay vs. straight, butch vs. soft, tops vs. bottoms, etc. This race diversity is an excellent experiment in human behavior. So, why not take it a notch up with the sexual diversity angle? Where else do we have to go? What a great satisfaction in human beahavior!

I could see a ratings boom with real celebrities trying to "Survive", but we all know they couldn't handle it!

So since that isn't going to happen...the next best thing is sexual diversity. You can tell it's making MB hot by all the press his "race" and "same sex" press is getting him.
Burned my last 3 hard drives, so no proof on previous posts can I find....

But Mark (Burnett) my words, I feel sexual diversity (among other things) is the way of Survivor future based on pushing the limits!

Sorry to post this here, but......

Just paid the 99c to watch Survivor 24/7 as I missed last night. It was worth the buck even if I had watched it on Thurs.

I'm not sure CBS's site show the episode in it's entirety.

Just a note: Tropolis TV is showing Survivor Season 1 in it's entirety this Monday. Richard, Sue Hawk, Kelli, Rudy and the original gang!

I believe it is free on the internet and they certainly make it appear that it is the whole episodes. I don't watch it on the net however because I watch it thursday nights.
