What is Surreal Life? Never heard of that show. Survivor is the only reality show I watch regularly.

I HATE most reality TV but I watch Survivor. It's never been as good as the first season. I really think it's cheating to give them fire and food, they should have to work for it. I know it's sick but I really think they should have to struggle to survive first and play the game second. Now there are too many reward challenges! Last season I swear some of them put on weight!

Taking the real survival aspect out makes it less physically competitive and more about who is the best liar.
