Only two, I think.

It's not too late to start watching Survivor Thailand. I don't even know the names of the tribes. Or of the people, either. We don't even know who the gay players are yet, lol.

That has a recap of the last show.

It gets interesting when you get to know the personalities and see their interactions and machinations. They plot, they scheme, they're torn between strategy-considerations and feelings of affinity or affection; and you see it all because the cameras go everyplace and capture even whispering.

One interesting thing about Survivor Thailand is that the teams were chosen by the oldest man and oldest woman in the group. It looked to me as though the man was choosing for youth and strength and the woman for likeability, to her; or maybe she was just chosing anybody, out of confusion. It was odd.

So the teams are unbalanced. And the younger, stronger team has won the competitions each time. But they're more dysfunctional in terms of cooperativeness, it is looking like.

There are two kinds of competitions. One is for luxury items (like a fish net, matches, extra food); the other is for not having to vote to kick off a member of your "tribe."

So far, the older, weaker group has had to eject two members and the other team is in tact.
