Does There Have To Be A "Bad Guy" ???
Lorry | Friday, October 31, 2003 - 08:14 am     You know, as I read the posts, I see people choosing the good guys and the bad guys... but for some reason this season, I can't really label anyone as the bad guy. Sure, Jon is a pain, Ryan S was physically weak, Lil seemed to accept her fate without a struggle, Osten up and quit the game, Rupert lost his temper, so did Shawn.... etc. But none of their actions were over the top, none of their actions were cruel or malicious... they all were playing the game. Some made good decisions that were too soon to take affect. Some made very bad decisions. Some let others make the decisions for them... but again... none of them were malicious. Do we need to have a bad guy in order to have a good guy??? Who is the bad guy in your opinion, and why??? What do you consider when you decide who is the bad guy??? |
Whit4you | Friday, October 31, 2003 - 09:00 am     Well most years there's a clear cut 'bad guy' and 'bad girl' - for me personally this year there are neither of those... I think Jon's a bad guy but heck he's so irritating and obnoxious and so on that he's entertaining to watch. So bad guy or not I'm not disappointed that he's still around. Can't think of a 'bad girl' - Sandra seems pushy, a bit obnoxious and so on but she's playing a darn good game so I don't really think she's the 'bad girl' of this year. Another display like Rupert's last one however and in my book he'll then be the worst 'bad guy' of all Survivors... but one *totally* out of line incident doesn't make someone all bad in my book. |
Maris | Friday, October 31, 2003 - 10:27 am     If I was on the Island I would probably want Rupert out as fast as possible. His rage and out of control behavior is not something I want to deal with along with the huge bug bites. When he started screaming who voted for me he knew damn well who it was because Christa and Sandra had told him he was going to get a vote. His browbeating the rest of his tribe would be enough for me to say to the others, time to put this puppy to bed, I will eat rice till the merge. Rupert up till last night was my favorite, I thought he was the best survivor participant in the history of the game. Like all reality shows, his ego will spell his doom. So my vote is that Rupert is the bad guy and my good guy is Sandra or Christa. |
Bastable | Friday, October 31, 2003 - 10:54 am     This is a pretty good season because no one is either bad or good. Rupert is coarse but people respect him. Jon is crazy but he's had the support of his tribe in his fights with Shawn. I like it when people aren't either "good" or "bad." Because that's life! And it makes predicting the outcome harder. |
