I have come to think the "what-if" moments are actually commercials for Sprint. Apparently they think this is buying them goodwill. Well, maybe it is a good marketing idea, and maybe it is not. It is suckering those of us who don't normally watch commercials into watching them, just in case they are part of the show, but they are also pissing us off at Survivor, which could make those of us on the edge of watching/not watching go over the non-watching edge. I suppose Sprint's marketing stats will tell.

Yes, the "what if" are Sprint sponsored and they are apparently taking the place of regular commercials, because I noted when fast forwarding that there weren't many commercials in between segments once you got through the what ifs.

I find it harmless. I would rather see somethng about past Survivors than a brainless commercial...and I can still choose to fast forward through them (which I did after the first one or two).

Well, if they had done a "what now" and updated us on some old players I might have liked it.

One "what if" was enough for me and I fast forwarded the rest with a smile on my face.

Sprint was the sole sponsor of the season premiere (in the US). I was under the impression the "What If" stuff was just for the premiere.

I believe you are right, Spear - a one-shot deal-ee-o! I can't believe Sprint would have gotten ANY positive feed-back about these spots!

"Tish, Matt isn't even in Fabio's league.

Gary's goatee and his man-sweater are freaking me out. I hate to sound so shallow, but I hope he gets voted out early so he doesn't creep me out with all that hair.

Still loving me some Boston Rob !!!"

If Francesca comes back, she'll have to beat out every other player that gets voted out. Somehow, I don't see that happening. Although, it's possible. I'd like to see her back too.

Happymom thanks for reminding me that Francesca may on RI for the rest of the game or until she defeats the next outcast? If she defeats the next outcast she goes back to camp or stays on RI.

Trini - As long as she keeps beating people, Francesca would stay on RI until TPTB deem it "re-entry" time into the game. I'm guessing the RI person will re-enter somewhere around merge time, but that's total speculation on my part.

Trini, if Francesca defeats the next outcast, she will stay on RI and the one she defeated will go home. The only way Francesca will ever go back to camp is if she manages to defeat every outcast until that point in the season where the RI person gets to go back to camp. Only one voted out survivor from the entire season will ever make it back to camp from RI.

From Jeff's blog: “How it works is very simple,” explained Probst. “When you’re voted out at Tribal Council, you don’t go home. You’re not out of the game. You go to Redemption Island and you live alone. And at a certain point in the game another person will join you. You will compete in a duel. The winner stays. The loser goes home. So you’re continuing to live out there on your own with very basic supplies. But you’re still in the game. And at a certain point you’ll be allowed to reenter the game and have a shot at the money.” In other words, people that are voted out will compete against each other for a chance to later rejoin the game.

The Soup clip on Federal Phil convinced me he is dyslexic.
My son has it and he cannot say words like San Francisco. He says FranSancisco.
He used to call Mohammed Ali.....Bohammedmalee.
My son is very smart but something about sequence is wired wrong.
That said.....Federal Phil can't play the game.

"What if" moments = "Who Cares?" moments.

I watched the first couple of them and then started FF through the rest. I mean really.....those previous games are OVER - who cares "if" they had been able to participate in a twist that was never part of the game before?

Pointless. Period.

I agree....I am barely able to stay interested for the Reunion Show of past tribe members after the Finale Show...much less this much down the road!

It was like they had to keep trying to work us into a lather for the concept of Redemption Island.

Just bring it! We will be able to figure out what is happening. Don't talk to us like we are stupid.
