survivor season 16: micronesia(fans vs favourites) - most feminist season ever? Female alliance goes to the final 4 and at one point two of the women have a conversation about how one of them should always ask for what she wants because it works in survivor. and in her normal life she doesn't ask for things because she is too afraid to hear no.

my favourite weekends are the ones where I get to rewatch old survivor seasons. usually i will stick to something in the boston rob oeuvre, but survivor ladies who are awesome are awesome.

I needed something to watch while eating breakfast(the videos on rage had moved on from nirvana and pearl jam to bands I did not know and batman brave and the bold hadn't started yet) so I chucked on ep1 of survivor all stars(my ultimate comfort season!) and it is really interesting to see how not-stupidly young they all are! compared to recent seasons where you have people who are Old(and cranky!) and people who are Young(and dumb!) and no real middle ground. Remember when survivor casts had at least one or two vaguely smart people who weren't 12 *or* completely over the hill?
