the series “survivor” seems to be drifting more towaqrds product placemnent than actual survivor skill testing, and never seems to have REALLy offered much of a challenge… First thing I would do is DUMP those losers, and go find /take advantage of the abundant resources the various locations have offered, but that the various contestants seem too stupid/game savy to take advantage of. here are just a few “SURVIVOR” senarios I would like to see… Dump the lot of 'em in Saskatewan River Valley, around Jan 15th… Contestant compete to see who DOES NOt get a bucket of water thrown on them before being dumped in a snow bank… Ave temp is -35 c. First one to move 300 meters gets a book of matches Give em each an american dime, dress them in a Jack daniels T-Shirt featuring a “star and Stripes” theme and drop them into Tehran… First one to go 300 meters gets a “Jack daniels” trucker’s hat! Your ideas are welcome! Regards FML ---

I’d like to see all the survivors on one beach for the entire game. For immunity challenges, the teams are chosen randomly. The challeng occurs; losers must vote off one; only the losing team votes. However, all of the players still return to the same beach. All of the players attend tribal council even though the “winners” don’t vote. I think the interplay of the losers and winners and the shifting of alliances would be very interesting. There are lots of twists that could occur. If everyone wanted to get rid of one person, a strong “temporary” team could throw an immunity challenge. An “immunity” idol of some sort might allow a player to switch places with another player on a “temporary” team. ---

Replace **voting off** with **killing off**. And of course everyone (including Probst) should be naked the entire time. ---

Oh, and I’d like to see the survivors go crazy, overpower the camera crew, Jeff, the producers, etc., and make them live on the beach while the survivors film them. Come to think of it, a “Survivor TV crew” season would be interesting. All the players have served as camera crew or production staff for a previous season. ---

I would like to see other environments, rather than always putting them in a tropical location. _Survivor: North Pole_ would be really interesting, as would _Survivor: Sahara._ ---

They should dump off everyone on _one_ island, and have them pick tribes. In the middle of the island would be a huge, Easter Island-type head(I’ll deem it “The Oracle”). No challenges except for competition for natural resources and dramatically-placed caches of goodies. Every three days, the head emits a call to council (something along the lines of the Martians in Jeff Wayne’s _“War of The Worlds”_). Both tribes must visit The Oracle, and vote out one person from **the other** tribe. No other rewards or immunities, just raw survival and competition. When the final two meet at the end of the show, then the ALL of the other players vote for the winner between the two. ---

Idea taken from Die Hard 3: Dump them all in the middle of harlem wearing only signs that say “I Hate \*\*\*\*\*\*\*”. Film ensueing chaos. First one out alive wins. \*Yes, probably distasteful I know. But it was entertaining in the movies. ---
