Survivor Live with John P. & Mia

Survivor Live, the Internet Talk Show
Friday, Oct. 1, 2004
Guests: John P. & Mia (Dolly called in to say "Hello".)
Hosts: Chris Booker & Richard Hatch, winner first Survivor

Today's show was more informative and lively than yesterday's show.

Richard Hatch Comments
Flexibility is a key attribute to do well on Survivor. John P. wasn't and it cost him. He expected to be in a mixed gender tribe and didn't adjust to the all male group as well as the old/young split. Also John P. was too confrontational, especially in dealing with Chris. Starting a confrontation just makes you a target.

The women were stupid to reveal to John K who voted for Dolly. Twila doesn't have the social skills to last long. In the Fat Five (Old Guy Alliance), Chris is just a pawn.

Hundreds of hours are filmed for each hour of Survivor broadcast and the show does a good job of being accurate.

John P. Comments
He really doesn't like Chris. The "all frame, no brain" comment really stung. Basically he said Chris is an annoying, back stabbing slacker.

His preparation: he practiced making fire and watched tapes of past shows.

Chad has no real personality. Sarge is playing well, he's the father figure.

What John P would do differently: suck up to the pawns.

Mia Comments
Why did she run at the mouth so much? She thought that her alliance had the numbers and she was just being herself. (She said something like: "I know I have a mouth on me.") Apparently Lisa was the swing vote. They didn't consider voting off Eliza because they felt once they merged she would annoy the men so much that she would go then. John K. mentioned Eliza's talkativeness and he was with the women for only a few hours!

Ami is playing well. Her speech about French braids was real smooth. Obviously Mia doesn't think Twila will do well.

What would Mia do differently? Keep her mouth shut (duh!).
