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."

"The Drakes vs The Morgans: First Impressions..." |
Regardless of how they got there, the initial survival skills set the tone. MB separated the pack, to prevoke. This time, seemingly blatently. Ie: let the dominants fight amoungst themselves, the domanant of, to later come to grips with a true-est from the loser tribe. As always, the simpletons will be discarded first, then the distraught, then the poor liars. Able v/s the Unable?
If you read from feft to right... advancing
retreating
If you judge a book by it's cover...
(from: survivorfever.net) Drake...the ready and willing.
(from: survivorfever.net) Morgan...the uncertain.
"What if it rains?"
"I'm on it. We need the fish oil to rain-proof the roof."
Weaving the netty stuff.
"The good news is... you look hot."
"The bad news is... the rest of us don't have a clue."
The Drakes' set-up looks better than the Morgans'. MB's separatist inclination, with a token "girl scout" to help the helpless. The Drakes are the learned pursuers, the Morgans are the street smart followers.

It seems to me as if there are many more 'likable' personalities in the Drake tribe... all I see when I look at the Morgan bunch are misfits and freaks.

LAST EDITED ON 09-03-03 AT 09:23 PM (EST)Hmmm.... I don't know; Rupert I grant you, and possibly Jon as well. But Christa sounds spunky and interesting, despite the weird hairdo thing. The Morgans, on the other hand, have an undertaker, a 23-year-old punk wannabe, and a Boy Scout leader who's stuck wearing her uniform for the entire game. Sounds more misfit to me. That said, never underestimate the power of misfits & underdogs. Witness Chuay Gan in Thailand, and the women in the Amazon.... Sometimes being a misfit only makes one that much scrappier! ------ Edited to say that since posting the above I have since learned more about Christa and OK, I see your point. But I still say, watch out for the misfits - they may surprise you!

It's interesting to note that MB has chosen to show Drake as much more of a cohesive unit than the Morgan bunch... The Drakes are all close together; their body language is suggesting they're all one big happy family. On the other hand, you've got the Morgans who are shown each standing separately, some of them almost with their backs facing each other. I wonder if this is how MB planned on editing the groups when he chose them.

Just a passing thought....did anyone else notice that Christa (supposedly reported to be racist) is on the tribe with only ONE minority (Sandra - hispanic), and both Osten and Tijuana are on the opposite tribe....Perhaps MB knew of Christa's "reported" postings via the internet...........
