Not only has this show been ripping off Survivor in a more boring way since the get-go, but tonight's preview shows Reward Challenge, Tribal Council and tell me the SS Minnow life preserver isn't an immunity idol.

And don't get me started on the heavy-handed editing. Gee, Survivor sure is good.

Yeah, but we've never seen such a total Gilligan as Gooner on Survivor. Almost, but not quite.

SMILES ARE FREE

You failed to mention Jeff probst's evil twin as the host. I mean come on, this guy looks like him, stands like him, talks like him. I don't know who to hate more, the producers, or this impersonator.

He gives me flashbacks of Mitchell from the Outback.

haha. i was thinking Ryan Shoulders from Pearl Islands. Same difference, really.

I was thinking that Gooner was a fictional character based upon the cast of Average Joe II.

I almost laughed my butt off last night the similarities were so strong. I was fully expected to hear the host say. "I'll go tally the votes" and "First person voted off the Real Gilligan's Island is....."

"Evil" Dr. Will: Reality Show Legend!

Okay, now it is so blatant a ripoff, could only have been more blatant if they'd made them wear the immunity life preserver as a necklace ... I can't believe epmb isn't suing!

Exactly - hard to believe they can get away with such a blatant rip-off.

...and can anyone explain why a couple worth over 500 million dollars would participate in a show like this? The whole thing seems phony and scripted

I would say I feel so smart that the life preserver was an immunity idol, but it was just so obvious. However, Skipper seems to be completely unaware of how this works.

I also think it odd that such wealthy people would care, but $250,000 would still pay for a new car or vacation or something for them, plus of course they are DAWs. But is it fair to allow them to compete separately???

This show is just awful!! Terrible!!! I have to be talking on the phone or cleaning or something while watching it. Thankfully, I can hang on for one more episode and see the conclusion of this....shipwreck!;)

And the "Howells" each get a vote. Excuse Me, they're a married couple, HEEELLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO..!!!!! This show is a plethora of production gufus, but that one right there tops the list.

I agree with kidflash. I think why epmb is'nt suing is because the show is scriped. For one thing what are the chances of all the players from one team winning. Well except for the Skipper and thats bacause the other Skipper almost had a heart attack and did you notice when that happened, no one came to his add. I mean you would think they would have some kind of doctor or something on the island. He was down for a long time if the poor man was realy having an attack he would have died. Also I think the Skipper thats on there now is a very famous actor and at the end of the show it will come out that this was just a show not realtv. Either way its a cheap rip off of Surviver.

Scripted? That's one dull script. Where did you pull that one out of?

Ladro's Law:
During every "con" show (Joe Schmoe, MBFOF, MBFOB etc...), and some tradional reality shows, some people will come up with what they think is a unique and profound idea that 'everyone' on the show is an actor and that the entire show is scripted. They will become convinced that their idea is so unique and profound that it must be right. They will consequently see every aspect of the show as proof that their unique and profound idea is right.
