Here's a cute idea someone had at the Survivor Newsgroup: <<Now that Survivor has milked the "America Votes" thing, do you think they will steal another page from the American Idol playbook and have a pre-season show involving the selection of the players? Not necessarily involving voting but a showcase of the oddballs who apply. Would you watch?>>

To be honest, I only watch the beginning of AI, when they are sorting the wheat from the chaff. Those auditions are hilarious. Be great to see some of the people who never make it to the island.

I wouldn't watch. The taped portions we would see during this would be nothing like what we see on the AI auditions.

I would watch it simply because I am a survivor addict. But I would have very high expectations.

A twist to that would be for us to watch the auditions and then be the ones to choose the contestants!

Well, RB, we'd definitely have a vested interest in that Survivor! No sitting on the fence and complaining about being bored; what a reflection THAT would be on OUR choices, huh? Thankfully, it will never happen as there has yet to be a fair and equitable voting system that can avoid the scandals.

Very true. Maybe if the had people PAY to vote, the abuse would be cut way down. $5...you vote once, end of story...lol. ;)

I'd watch the pre-pick shows & I'd pay if necessary to pick my fav. I think $5 is too much. $1 would be better because then you could vote for everyone you'd like to see on the show. Even on line polls would be a fun way for CBS to choose who goes on.

I only said $5 Deb, because it might make people think twice about voting for someone 50 times! lol

Yeah Rupertbear you do have a point. I was just thinking that I might like to have a say in the whole cast. Wouldn't it be fun to do this picking on line with all the folks pictures up & everyone gets to vote once & they can pick the 16 folks (8 men, 8 women) they would like to see on the show. Boy, I'd mix my characters up & the only way some bimbo or coat tail rider would make it would be if they totally faked their video. I'd have me nearly 8 hunka muffins though (yeah, I'd leave a space or 2 for the good ole boys).

Yeah I know what you're saying, Roxy...it's all BAGGY, BAGGY, BAGGY these days. Something about a guy in a tight pair of faded 501s that get's me every single time :P

Sorry ladies... since I was born in Scotland... I can say... There is NOTHING SEXIER than a Man in a Kilt!! Especially if that man is Sir Sean Connery.

Broxi, you'll get no argument from me on that score. I think ANY man looks sexy in a kilt...even the chubby ones.

I'd rather see Hugh Jackman in a kilt. Or Viggo Mortensen. I know I am in a minority, but Sean Connery never did that much for me.
