This Survivor idea sounds really bad to me. Why create the type of environment that could create racial animosity, not just among the participants but among viewers as well? Don't we want to get past all of that????

i don't think the racial survivor is the greatest idea but it will make people watch at least at first. that's the point, right?

I think it's great - with racial tensions already so high in the US, why not but it on TV for everyone to see just how ugly racism can be. Maybe this way all the fat americans in the heartland can see what the rest of us are talking about.

I am not watching it. It's terrible how they are using race for ratings.
