Am a reality show junkie. Heather isn't so much, unless you count Project Runway, which she is currently lurrrrving and I am currently missing because I cut off my cable about a month ago in a fit of money saving panic. Luckily, one of the three and a half channels I get through the little rabbit ears on the top of my TV is CBS, home of the show that started it all, Survivor.<br /><br />Unless you live under a rock or just recently got back from Zimbabwe, you know that this season's Survivor cast is divided into (gasp!) racially based teams. While this has caused a lot of pre-show controversy (ergo, much pre-show publicity), I really don't think it's that big of a deal. Minorities, for some reason, are relatively underrepresented in reality shows as a whole, so I think it's a good idea to make that a prerequisite. I was also pleased to see the members of each team did not fit into any sort of stereotype about that particular race. What I was not so pleased with, however, was Flicka.<br /><br /><br /><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5771/2363/320/flicka.jpg" border="0" /><br /><p>No, not THAT Flicka...this Flicka...</p><p><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 154px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 292px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="261" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5771/2363/320/299x623_jessica.jpg" width="154" border="0" /></p><p><br />Some observations:</p><p>1. The hair. My god, the hair! I'm all for being different, but this might be pushing it a bit...and how does she take care of it while on an island for 39 days? How does she keep bugs from nesting?</p><p>2. This girl? Is dumber than a box of rocks. Her team had somehow grabbed two chickens off the supply boat and were storing them under a wooden crate. What does she do? Picks up the end of the box to check on them, subsequently freeing that night's dinner. (Although I must say that I'm kind of glad I didn't get to see the chicken slaughter ritual; believe me, I got enough of that from last season.)</p><p>3. Her occupation is listed as an actress and a roller derby girl. You know, I bet she really works at Hot Topic.</p><p>4. And here's the big one - her real name is Jessica. Now, I was rather excited that I had a namesake on the show, but now I am appalled. And where do you get Flicka from Jessica? I have been called many variants of my first and last name throughout my life, but Flicka was never an option.</p><p>With the exception of Flicka and her mad chicken raizing skillz, this season of Survivor proves to be interesting...I'll keep you posted.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com5
