PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. 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.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Theory: Is the shocking "event" Sept. 11?" |
When I saw the preview for next week's episode, with all the contestants expressing what appeared to be overwhelming shock and sadness about an "event" that shakes up the whole tribe, I immediately thought that the "event" must be that someone comes to tell the tribe about the events that occurred on September 11th.I don't know anything about when the filming of Survivor 4 took place, so I don't know if this makes sense chronologically, but I think it's the best explanation for the reactions shown by ALL the contestants. If the Tribe had received news of the death of Vee's grandmother, they all might be saddened, but I really don't think it would elicit all the powerful, raw responses we were shown (tears from many, shock from Robert). This also makes sense with Pappy's comment about "something like this makes you realize what's really important." FYI, I've also been watching Frontier House (a sort of reality show on PBS where families have to live for 3 months like pioneers on the 1883 Montana frontier -- no contact with the outside world), and on that show the producers came in mid-filming to tell the families about what happened on Sept. 11 and they showed the families' reaction to the news. If, in fact, Survivor 4 was in the process of being filmed on Sept. 11, how could MB justify not telling the contestants about such a significant event? (especially if Sean has friends and family in NYC) What do you think about this theory?

1. "December..." |
I think this season was filmed at the end of last year - the survivor people got back to the US a few days before Xmas, I believe - can anyone confirm?

3. "Also..." |
these were happy tears. Im guessing that the tears they are crying are tears of joy because one lucky person will be runited with their family...

It was Vecepias Birthday last episode and her Birthday was December 9th. SOOO...it is December, so the shocking event must be something else other than Sept 11th..

Well, sorry about the mixup then. I don't have time to check the board very often or read all the posts, and I hadn't seen anything on the board about this issue or about filming dates.
