I watched bigboss where contestants live in a 7 star like house with many benefits. Yet they complain, fight be mean.

While Survivor shows the contestants amidst natural surroundings and subsisting on anything they can find. they have little energy to plot because most of the time is spent worrying about basic things.

Food is the problem. eating cocnut flesh throughout the day will make even a amiable person turn into something else. A coconut or a nut?

Once in a week, they can be given the luxury of a modern bathroom where they can clean themselves up thoroughly and ready for the next battle.

I like to watch those dark ominous clouds passing over the sea, the waves, the wild trees and shrubs, the eternal sands and the unshaven, savage looking participants craving for food and comfort, yet laughing and enjoying themselves.

How different from the claustrophobic atmosphere of bigboss?

The points u stated are very much valid. But still, in my opinion big boss was far more entertaining. Well being a viewer, i definitely look for entertainment and big boss provided.
Jus my POV.. No offence to survivor lovers

This time they messed up BB. It could have been better, more transparent, less partiality, less tolerance towards rule breakers.

Colors lost it this time.

Coming to survivors, no one is overtly vicious or manipulative. While ladies are there to provide some relief from monotony, They really dont play it as hard as their male counterparts. Maybe because of biological reasons.But they have to be appreciated for being there without much make up. I find men are more empathetic towards Evelyn and that is a welcome sign.

I liked Priyanka Bassi in LRL and she left too early. Well. No bias this time.

Preeti. We have to see more of her to judge.

No one is repulsive. and no one is extraordinary.

If you like adventures, if you like movies like Tom Hank's Castaway, you will enjoy this.

I have to agree with you...I've always been a Bigg Boss fan and yet I feel this show is much better than Bigg Boss in many ways. The meanness levels in BB5 were intolerable this year. I like the format of Survivor India and the idea that they have not messed with the basics and stayed away from excessive melodrama

Another thing I like is that there are no big stars anchoring the show. And the person who is anchoring is reasonable and likeable We are not awed. I hope survivor will stick to this format without going for the big stars and other big things to catch eyeballs.

yeah agree ,big boss is way better and more entertaining 1oo times than survivor , in big boss we get to see a lots of things to get amused where as survivor does not show anything which keeps us amused , Name survivor itself suggests that it will feature appalling stunts but it features only horrendous... i would prefer to watch big boss and Man v/s Wild over Survivor...
