Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines.

"Casting call help needed"
Hey all, i've been lurking around the site for the whole A.S.S season and have loved everybodies insights. Ok, here's the deal. I want to put together an application and videotape for the Survivor 10 casting call, and need some help... so naturally i'm coming to the experts.

I know there's going to be thousands of applicants, and i want to be as honest as i can on it the app, but lets face it, just getting on the show is the real hard part. Once on there any of us could kick some A.S.S. Any suggestions as to how to answer the app questions or what to include in my 3 minute video?
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

With everybodies help I'll be carrying the Survivorblows torch with me all the way to the win!
ps. here's the app with the questions on it. Thanks!

1. "here's the bad news....."
...if you really need help or ideas on how to fill out the application and what to put in your video then you already have no chance of getting picked.

The people with the types of personalites needed for these shows are not the types of people that would ask for suggestions or tips. The types of people picked for these shows already feel as if they know all the answers themselves and don't really see the point in enlisting other (and in their minds) inferior opinions.

So, my advice to you would be to give up your dream of being on Survivor and shoot for something more in line with your personality, like an audience member on the Price Is Right.

Hope that helped!

I'm always happy to follow shakes in his pursuit of truth and the Survivor way

I've never seen so many new posts pop up this season lol It must be the magic of All Stars?

In the interest of being helpful, here is an interview from Jeff Probst which may assist you in your quest. Good luck to you

Go to a modeling agency and apply for a job. If they turn you down, don't bother unless your over 40. The casting formula currently is 1 old woman, 1 old guy, and 14 clueless extras from Baywatch aged 21-35 that will vote the ugly old people out and then get naked. (Hopefully this will be changing since the most popular Survivor of all time was the old guy on Pearl Islands- Rupert, admittedly, not a handsome man).

Alternately you can can try the reality show "entry level position": Bartender at "Belly" in L.A. ( a position held by Sean Rector, Gabe, Jerri Mathney, and roughly half the contestants on Big Brother.)

Pearl Islands: Older women Trish (42) and Lillian (51), Older men Rupert (39) and Andrew (40)

Amazon: Older women Jeanne (41) and Janet (47), Older men Butch (50) and Roger (56)

Thailand: Older women Jan (53) Helen (47), older men: Jake (61), John (40), Clay (46), Ted (37)

Marquesas: Older women Kathy (47), Patricia (49), older men Peter (45), Paschal (57), Robert (38)

Africa: Older women Linda (44), Diane (42), Teresa (42), Kim J (57), older men Carl (46), Tom (46), Lex (38), Frank (43)

Australia: Older women Tina (40), Maralyn (51), Debb (45), older men: Keith (40), Rodger (53), Michael (38)

Borneo: Older women Susan (38), Sonja (63), Gretchen (38), older men Richard (39), Rudy (72), BB (64)

So it is more then just 1 older man and 1 older women, but the trend leans toward eiether equal amounts of older men/women or favors the older men.

Well I ran into Sanrda the other day and she told me "the secret" on how to get on the show.

So if you want to know "the secret" just email me and we can make arrangements for you to pay me 1 million dollars for "the secret"

Be yourself is the best advice you've received so far. Here's the other half of the equation:

Open your mouth, start talking, keep talking, don't shut up for any reason. Doesn't matter what you say or what you talk about, just keep talking.
