I just finished watching season 1 on DVD. I forgot how much they featured life at camp in the first ones. Plus they had so much stuff given to them! It was still great second time around.
On to season 2!

And Tribal Council...that place looks likes it's about to fall apart! In the later seasons, they make TC to look like a very solemn place...but in season one...
And Jervase...I had forgotten about him! He was hilarious!
It's hard to believe by watching the first show that Susan would make the imfamous "Snake and Rat speech.
All the Rudyisms...nobody had that guy beat.
This is great.

I have been waiting for this and it wasn't on after the Tour de France...Grrr - I even saw promos! Did Canada get screwed out of the reruns or is it just my area in British Columbia?

It is on the Outdoor Life Network, not the Outdoor Channel.

Go to www.olntv.com for complete schedule. Each episode is shown at many different times. They have already shown the first four of season one. A lot different then later. Lots of food. Lots of clothes to wear. Lazy as usual!

I have NO idea why OLN has just decided to run ALL the episodes just on Wednesdays now like a big Marathon every week. That's crazy. It's ruined my re-run fun since the recorder is busy with other shows during primetime.

Naja, If it helps, they not only run 3 episodes back to back, they then repeat those 3 same episodes between 10 PM and 1 AM -- we've been Tivoing them at that time because there isn't much else on. Actually, Wed. is pretty "dead" on our radar, but Still Standing falls in there, so we just bumped it up to save hassle -- then we can watch one 1t 7:00 pm for 3 nights in a row AFTER Wed! LOL

Arg, I didn't even realize it's the same eps later, thanks... but that still gives me a small kink because I have to record Ghost Hunters later running since the first run earlier is sometime during my prime time shows. I do Yes Dear, still Standing, and Lost on Wednesdays during primetime. I can figure this out, but I just wish they would have left it alone

Yeah, I'm among those disappointed in this stupid Wednesday marathon. We can watch up until LOST and then we switch, plush I tape that because my DH gets up for work at 4:30 a.m. and isn't pleased with the switch to 9pm for Lost. Then at 10 I have FX or the show following Lost... geeeze..can't think of it but we're talking about it on the TV board. LOL At least there's only 2 wks left of my show on FX so now I have to figure out the scheduling of when I tape this stuff! Unfortunately, all I have is one VCR which isn't working so well anymore and I keep having to reprogram every week since I can only put 8 things on it. Sheesh. We enjoyed our 7pm Survior routine. It was a nice sit together and "watch" after dinner.

Oh...and I am totally ticked they voted off Hunter. He was my favorite. I see a "pagong" in that tribe's future and they deserve it for voting him off! Dummies!

I'm loving watching the reruns on OLN -- couldn't wait to resume my crush on Boston Rob.
I'm actually okay with the switch to 3 eps on Wednesday. I can tape them and then watch on Friday when nothing else is on. 4 eps a week was tough for me to keep up and to make sure I saw it every night was a challenge.
I think they did this because of hockey. I do wish they'd air the 3 eps again on the weekend to give people another chance to catch them.

Being on the weekend would be great. I tape the first two and then I tape other shows inbetween and then tape the last one at midnight. It makes for a messed up tape, but at least I'm getting to watch it all!

AFter saying I didn't mind all 3 on Wednesday I end up missing the first ep last night because they start at 5pm where I am. I havent' even left work yet! Bummer. Won't let that happen next week.
I'm actually finding I enjoy these reruns more than I am this season of Survivor. Odd.

Anyone have a list of the "code words" for the Tailand Trip? I had collected all of them and when I first went to enter them the first couple of weeks, I'd put one in and it would list all of them, so I didn't bother listing each one since it indicated all 3 were there from that night. Now I go to enter them and only the ones I actually entered are missing. Grrrrrrrrrrr! I can't remember the ones from earlier weeks now!

Does anyone know why OLN is showing All Stars next instead of Pearl Islands? I tried looking it up but I can't find it.

The ppl that didn't originally see Pearl Islands are going to wonder who the heck Rupert is and why he's on the All-Stars.

Apparently, they're skipping Pearl Islands because the DVD is coming out next week so they don't want to hurt sales.

I just ck'd OLN's site. The TV Schedule shows that 'Pearl Island' starts on Wed March 1st and the show returns to 3 hr blocks on Wed. nights.
