Hi Tom,

I have some of the same feeling as you in terms of needing some down time..... when I have been around a number of people in a group setting for an extended period of time. Survivor is certainly an interesting microcosm ...... I have some conflicted feelings for potential contrivances in many reality shows.....

I guess Survivor really helped to popularize the "reality series" pandemic that has brought us maybe a little too much with Duck Dynasty and the big Christmas controversy of 2013 and that little girl in Georgia who created a media whirlwind 18 months ago.

RIchard Hatch was quite a character in the very first season of survivor...... I see the show is already up to season 28
