The season isn’t over yet

The season isn’t over yet


The season isn’t over yet, so it is sort of unfair to make a comparison to past seasons, but it looks like “Survivor’s” ratings will be down about 10%.edhardysunglassesstore Manufacturers directory . Even with lower ratings, “Survivor” remains one of the 15 or so highest rated shows on television each week,Cheap ED Hardy offers on sale ed hardy hats in low price . but – as someone who has seen every episode of Survivor for 22 seasons – I had to wonder why the show seemed to be slipping so much.

Initially, it seemed like “Survivor’s” producers came up with a good idea to boost ratings this year. In most “Survivor” seasons,Live Cycle iwcwatchesshop for men and ladies .IWC watches are warranted by our fakerolexonline for a period of one year from the original date of purchase. all the characters are new… but not this time. The producers brought back Russell Hantz and “Boston Rob” Mariano. Rob and Russell are two of the most popular characters in “Survivor” history and were enemies last year on the popular “Heroes vs. Villains” edition of the show. The thought of them renewing their rivalry had most “Survivor” fans drooling. Russell,A baseball cap is a type of soft cap with a long, who was not trusted by his tribemates, was voted out very early in the show; but Rob has dominated the game. He earned the trust of his tribe very quickly – trust that has turned into an almost cult-like devotion – and has seemingly been in charge of virtually everything that has happened on the show for months. Coming into the Sunday finale, many think he is the player to beat.

So, why have ratings declined? You need look no further than the name of the show this time around—”Survivor: Redemption Island.”

The show introduced a new concept this year— everyone who is “voted out” sticks around and goes to “Redemption Island,” a place where they face off against other voted out contestants to try to earn their way back into the game. One player, an extremely religious young man named Matt Elrond, has been voted out by his tribe twice, but remains a viable player because he continues to survive on Redemption Island. As we go into the Sunday finale, there are 4 players still “alive” on Redemption Island each of whom could win the grand prize.
