contestants are too primed to play to the camera. Plus shameless cross-promotion by CBS, probably to pull over a younger built-in audience from BB. Cheap of producers to confine to Europe. Just nothing about this season is in the original spirit of the show.

I watched the first couple seasons, then got sick of seeing 'Boston Rob' replacing what should have been new, unknown contestants

Let's just call it the Boston Rob Show, and be done with it?

Anyways: My TV dial walks away from Survivor and Amazing Race ... I've got other shit to do, in any case
