Saw this on TV last night. There were people from every show on, some of the survivors, Jeff P., medical people and Mark Burnett It was semi-interesting. There was footage from the shows as well as recent interviews.

I think it was Mark B. that said they get applications from some people that want the $, but those who get picked for the shows want the adventure. They had Ethan, Rob (most recent show), and a few others saying they love the game and would do it again for nothing...just the experience.

Lets hope Rob and Rob would do it for nothing--I just read at TVGuide.com that #8 will be an all star with members of previous years!

I missed the show... darn! I would have liked to have seen it. Sounds interesting.

Wonder if Rupert will be included if he were to win this year? I doubt it... The show surely has already been arranged, and the survivors chosen. Darn, I hope Rupert wins.. would love to see him on the All Star Survivors.

Thanks Happymom... I hope they re-run the VH1 show in my area.

If I recall, the tv show was in three parts (only saw first one). There were discussing how real these reality shows really were. Regarding Survivor, they were saying that the competitions and their results were 'honest,' but sometimes they would have to restart a comp. because one or several did not understand the rules. And if camera angles were not right, they would reshoot parts of a comp. with instructions that the same behaviors were repeated.

Your are reminding me of my first experience w. 'reality' entertainment. Years ago, there was a scuffy theater in the East Village area of NYC. You paid your money, sat down and watched a group of people who were living on stage 24/7. Sort of boring, but fascinating. Best moment: someone came out of a box-like toilet and said that they were out of toilet paper; could any of us in audience help. I went out and got them a roll.

When I was a "hippie"... many many years ago..lol I once sat for four hours watching Yoko Ono's "Fly On A Nude"... At the time, I thought I was sooooo sophisticated... soooo "in the know"... rofl

However, it was not 4 hours long... I have no clue how long it was... I had to leave... sophistication tossed to the wind.. I loved Yoko, but my brain was turning to mush...hahahaha

I'm still a Yoko fan, John Waters, most of the off the wall types.

Enigma2, "VH1 Goes Inside" is a regular series and they featured "Survivor" (not all reality shows) for one episode. (This week's episode features "South Park".) You may be thinking of the five-part "Reality of Reality" series that ran on Bravo.

Spear, that's what I thought he was talking about cuz I saw clips on Survivor on Reality of Reality (which was a really great documentary).

Spear: yep, you are correct. Got that info on the Bravo thing. Sorry that I missed the VH1 show you mentioned.
