Survivor Micronesia: The Sounds of Jungle Love
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Survivor, Features,
After just two weeks, Survivor: Micronesia has already proven to be quite an interesting season. I don’t know if it’s because the editors have gotten smarter over the past 15 installments or the players have just grown wiser. Whatever the reason – the past two episodes have kept us on our toes with some nice twists and turns up until the final vote.
Malakal – having just eliminated the controversial Jonny Fairplay – returned to camp feeling like a whole new group. Although his unexpected departure threw off some individual plans, it was hard to deny that life was better without his annoying presence.

MONDAY (2/11)
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (FOX, 8pm): “Sarah meets a stranger (Brian Austin Green) who shares a similar past.” They were once both white rappers?
- Dance War (ABC, 8pm): “The touring company of ‘High School Musical’ performs.” The contestants, now left with inferiority complexes, are unable to go on.
- Flavor of Love (VH1, 9pm): Third season premiere. Is it a coincidence that a Flav-ex has since show up on Celebrity Rehab?
- Prison Break (FOX, 8pm): “The escape attempt is successful for some, if not all, of the escapees.” Apparently you can miss weeks of this show and not miss a thing.

Survivor Micronesia: “You Guys Are Dumber Than You Look”
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Survivor, Features,
For the latest round of Survivor, CBS decided to spice things up a bit and incorporated a little old with the new. In this installment, ten die-hard fans will be competing against ten former contestants. Last night, we saw the debut of Survivor: Micronesia – otherwise known as ‘Fans vs. Favorites’.
The premiere episode kicked off with the newbies arriving by boat to a rain-soaked island. After a quick welcome by Jeff Probst, the unsuspecting participants learned the cold, hard truth: they were going to compete against seasoned pros.

MONDAY (2/4)
- Welcome to the Captain (CBS, 8:30): Series premiere. “A Hollywood wunderkind in a career slump is persuaded by his friend to move into his famous Tinseltown apartment building with an eclectic group of tenants.” Eclectic = show gone soon.
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (FOX, 9pm): “John discovers the figure may be bleaker than he imagined.” I’m confused. If he’s currently in 2007, he should have already seen what the future looks like in Rise of the Machines.
- The New Adventures of Old Christine (CBS, 9:30): Season Three premiere. “Christine gets overly nervous about sleeping with Mr. Harris (Blair Underwood) for the first time.” I think I already saw this episode…..on Sex and the City.
- Late Night With David Letterman (CBS, 11:30): Hillary Clinton sits down with the talk show host. Any woman who can make us forget Paris Hilton deserves to be President.
