Remove this ad I rewatched the first four episodes of Australia and they are so boring. They aren't showing enough of the personalities and its not even better than the first four episodes of Africa. The editing sure is better on newer seasons. In my opinion, Kel and Kimmi received the strongest edits in the first four episodes.

I definitely feel that the newer seasons are more entertaining and have better editing than the older seasons. But I think most people have gotten tired of the Survivor concept and just reality TV shows in general.

The first four seasons are the only seasons where I feel like I actually got properly introduced to EVERY person on the show. I'd sooner take the story-driven early Survivor seasons than the strategy-driven newer seasons anyday. The last time I felt like all the players were a valuable asset to the show was All-Stars (and even Tina's appearance was kinda iffy in that first episode).

The older seasons are actually character-driven or drama-centric. The newer seasons are story-driven or arc-centric. Those are two different concepts.

I don't think they've changed the way they edit, it's that the GAME has changed... They HAD to film the show as a character-driven soap opera the first few times around because that's what footage they HAD. Now, people seem to go in to the game playing a much more outright, strategical game, for the most part. So of course the editing would be different 12 seasons later from Borneo. They only showed Rich scheming and plotting because he's the ONLY one who did...not because they cared so much about Jenna Lewis' character that they edited her differently. Nowadays, there are a lot more people actually playing..from day 1. And I think the seasons are just as entertaining now as they were in the beginning.But not more or less so.

Post-merge, fishing became near impossible in Australia, and there was no Mike around to hunt for boars and such. They weren't in any tropical setting, so fruits were difficult to find, especially with the fire wiping so much out. They either had very little rice or mismanaged it before the merge, so they were running on almost no fuel up until the trade. And even after the trade the tribe lost some of their rice in the flood, further decreasing proportion sizes. They were basically running off of a couple of spoonfulls of rice a day, and they were extremely lethargic because of that. Since then, while the initial supplies may have been more scarce in the beginning, rewards have been much more over the top and every tribe has been able to sustain themselves either on a bounty of fishing or lasting supplies of rice and grain.

Remove this ad Kimmi really did have one of the strongest personalities to date, even if most people didn't like her, her personality could, in no way, be edited out...she always had an opinion, and that's why I liked her!

Posts: 3177 (01/03/07 11:27 AM) I need a life Reply Quote More Recent Posts	I thought the Nick and Amber boot episodes were better than any of the Jerri drama episodes. The lack of food and flood situations were more over the top than Jerri. The F5 to the end were more boring than typical episodes of Survivor probably but they fit in context of the show of it being the 2nd season instead of it being a later season with much more strategy. Elisabeth came across as a bitch at times with her mean spiritness towards Keith when saying a negative comment about him again in the F4 TC when voting.
