A new WB reality show starting in March--the commercials look interesting.

Gee thanks! Now there's something else I have to put on my schedule that I don't have time to watch! LOL. Gotta love the DVR, just let it fill up and eventually I'll watch some of this stuff! Hopefully I can get it cleared up enough so there's room for this show! I guess I have a month to work on it!

Didn't anybody watch this?? I felt like such an idiot. For about half of the show I kept saying the host looks so familiar. It was driving me crazy. Even when I heard his name I kept saying I know this guy but where have I seen him? Its Hal Sparks from Queer As Folk!!! I can't believe he is doing such a cheesy show. The rich kids are such jerks and the poor kids are pretty nice kids for the most part. Its a cheesy show but I'll probably keep watching it just to see Hal again and to see how they manage to keep the rich kids there. I would think that they are all wanting to be eliminated because sharing 200K is nothing to them when they are all so rich and you'd think they'd rather go home than have to stay there and do nasty chores for just 200K split between them and their poor kid partner. There's got to be something else to entice them to stay that we don't know about. They are so arrogant and snotty or at least that is the way they are being portrayed.

They really are cheesy with the "prize" money.

Why would those snotty acting rich kids compete for what for them is a night out or a few pocket books? Maybe they placed bets with some other rich kids on how long they'd last?

Maybe their parents are threatening to cut them off, they're mediawh*res, or just plain nutty?

It's gotta gripe at the poor kids that those rich ones get the same amount of money that they don't even care about.

So far, this is pretty dumb.

Count me in I really liked it, and I just happened to find it when I was flipping thru the channels.

My TV Guide says it on again on Sunday night as a repeat.

So Jimmer if you missed it you can watch it then :-)

I watched it for about 10 minutes. Ten minutes I won't get back. Days Of Our Lives is less staged. Can't see watching more.

Hal Sparks is the reason I watched and I actually enjoyed it. I think I read it's on for 6 weeks, so I'll keep watching.

What I'm really hoping happens is that when the final rich/poor kid pairing wins the $200,000 that the rich kid says they don't want their share and gives it all to the poor kid.

I think the rich kids will compete due to pure ego. They don't want to be seen as quitters. Plus I'm sure they want the face time on TV.

Maybe all those rich kids are hoping to get a series like Paris Hilton did. Fat chance!

I watched again and I am liking the show. One of the rich kids, Nick, was going on and on about how much smarter, stronger the rich kids are than the poor kids and how the rich kids(even though each rich kid is paired with a poor kid) are in control of the outcome of this show. Guess who went home? Rich kid with the big mouth, Nick!
Yeah, I'm talking to myself.

I'm listening. I forgot to tape it but caught the second half. I was glad to see him go home -- he was SO arrogant. I wonder how much of his end-of-the-show apology was really heartfelt and how much was to save face.

Hi Brenda! It's funny too, because Nick and his partner worked very hard to win. I was impressed with a few of the rich kids and how hard they worked to win the immunity.

Okay....weirdness abounds.

One of the guys looked familiar to me. Michael, the gay guy, reminded me of the gay guy in season one of Cold Turkey (his name was Calvin Smith), so I looked up the cast on www.tv.com.

The results were either very telling or very wrong!

It seems that Michael is not the same guy that was on Cold Turkey......BUT, most of the participants in Survival of the Richest appeared to be former reality show contestants. Sam's history says she played "herself" in some things and also played "himself" in some things!

Also, it says that Hunter played Oscar the dog in three episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm! LOL

I'm guessing that some (or all) of the links for the contestants' film credits were mis-linked......possibly because their last names were not used for the most oart. (Example: The dog that played Oscar on Curb Your Enthusiasm was actually named "Hunter" although he appears to be a different Hunter than the one on Survival of the Richest.:-) )

In any case, now I wonder if any of the contestants in this show have been on other reality shows. I had thought that Michael was someone else and I also thought that Jim looked familiar. I watched one or two episodes of Mr Personality before I got tired of it and I also watched House of Dreams....but I don't remember what anyone looked like on either of those shows now!

If anyone remembers seeing any of this cast on any of the other reality shows listed as their film credits, please tell me.....enquiring minds want to know!

Hi SanFran! I think you are onto something because alot of these reality "stars" are starting to look alike. I guess a person could make some money doing all these shows. I thought Nick looked very familiar.

I wonder if the tv.com site is set to scan sites for actor names and since this cast is "one-named" is picking up all other "one-named" entries and lumping them all together?

I watched Hell's Kitchen, and the two Michaels are definitely not the same (HK Michael won). I also watched Amish in the City, and the Nicks are different there too. And I don't recall Tracy on For Love or Money, but there was a large cast so it is possible.

I'm still watching. Host always says prize is $200,000 -- but is that for each of the pair or does the pair split it? During yesterday's eppie, one of the contestants said something about $400,000 prize (so $200,000 each) and another said $100,000 (split $200,000). Do they even know what they're playing for?

I caught that to about the 400,000. and figured that was a mistake.

From what I understand they have to split the 200K.

And I thought I was the only one still watching, but next week its over with.

I also have wondered if the rich kids will give the poor kids some of there own money after doing this show.

I feel if they could Sammy and Elzibeth would for Marcus and Jacob.

Maybe Hunter would for Johanna's daughter's education, as he did seem touched by her.

I know that Johanna was on Finding my Dad a new wife or something like that, and she was voted off.

Umm I just went to the WB site posted above and none of these people are really rich it seem's.

I went down the list and clicked on S.O.R's and then to the link's and it seem's that well the one's I read that had a my space well that they are just actor's.

Sure puts a new light on it to me :-(.

There was a baseball game on last night so my dvr didnt record the whole episode. I saw the three teams run the obsticle course but that was the end for me... can anyone give me a replay of what all happened from the time Sammy and her teammate finished raising the flag? Thanks so much.

The three teams had to run the same obstacle course separately. Slowest team had to leave immediately. Sammi and Jacob were last, so they're gone.

During the hour, Sammi and, IIRC, Hunter said they wanted to use the money to start their own businesses so they would not have to continue to depend on parents doling out family to them. Do they realize they'd have to work?

I don't think so as Jacob kept saying he would do this and this and help his family, well 100K "AFTER TAXES" just doesn't go as far as it use to.

The funniest part of the show to me was when the drill sergeant was yelling at Sammi, and she said "Why are you yelling at me???" in such an innocent pained tone. The sergeant looked like he was about to bust out laughing. It's because you're on a really silly reality show, Sammi!

I'm still watching too. The Dutch kid is cute and funny. I'm still hopeful the rich kid who wins will let the poor kid have the whole $200,000 but it doesn't sound like it will happen that way.
