I think its interesting, but will in some ways be unfair, the show always has the pampered pretty or stupid token person-and no matter what race or group-that person will bring them down. I've never watched survivor but think this will be a "unique" approach to the show?

My initial reaction when I heard about it was "Wow, that's terrible!" But then I thought about it and I guess it's not so bad. Actually I think it's kind of brave to confront the separation between races as long as they don't treat the groups differently. Hopefully we'll get to see stereotypes proven wrong and it will be a positive thing.

"the show always has the pampered pretty or stupid token person" " I've never watched survivor"
How can you make assumptions when you admit you have never seen the show??
Personally, I think the only race that will make a big deal of it will be black. Just because Al Sharpton & Jesse Jackson need something to ***** about.

awesome, Awesome, AWESOME idea
finally putting on the table what everyone is afraid to talk about, THAT IS IN OUR FACES EVERYDAY!!!
This is great. Hopefully we'll learn more about our real selves, good and bad.
I normally don't watch the show, but I'm going to catch it now. I hope that they do the same thing on The Apprentice.
too bad that they didn't get a group of Eastern Indians. That would make it even more interesting.
I think next time they should try different religions...I think...well maybe not. Might be good...might be bad

HECK NO. i'm a white woman who might walk OFF THE instruct if i become a contestant. think of approximately what you will possibly flow via. before everything, each youngster who has a prejudice bent in hardship-loose, jr. severe or severe college is going to apply this as an excuse to talk with regard to the "dumb black team" or regardless of different race. i'm from an extremely white area and we don't have sufficient type in any respect. the prejudiced people in my area are only going to FEED off of this! i'm extremely dissatisfied approximately this and characteristic already written in to CBS. before everything, CBS greater helpful no longer have a martin luther king, jr. occasion this january, because of the fact his dream to confirm black, white, all hues retaining palms is thoroughly SHOT with this ridiculous interest getting stint. to honor him after dividing people of his united states of america may be a crying disgrace. 2d, if i've got been a white contestant in this instruct, once I have been given lower back to the actual worldwide, i may be time-honored because of the fact the white woman and the way i taken care of different races, no longer that i become pressured to compete like this, yet that i become prejudiced in basic terms for competing. there is not any thank you to be considered or remembered different than interior the debatable moments. if I have been the contestant, i might refuse to take area in something, and on the 1st night of balloting, i might vote Mark Burnett off the island. 0.33, CBS is the jerk youngster who faucets the bully on the shoulder and gets somebody else in a combat, in no way being concerned that he's the single that began it, in basic terms guffawing because of the fact he did no longer get punched the way the harmless different youngster did. CBS isn't taking duty for the fights, fake impression, and branch they are going to be sowing interior the colleges, via the watercooler, and greater. you need to no longer pay me a million of Survivor's very own funds to computer screen this season. so NO, i do no longer think of this may be a solid concept in any respect, i think of this is truthfully IRRESPONSIBLE.

It will be truely tribal - white against non white. I think it might be interesting. However, to sort teams into races sets back integration and can only lead to social problems as people back their kind.

It's a rotten idea. But then this show is so lame, it's not al all surprising that the people who make these decisions would go for something as low brow as this kind of crap.

It seems like reality shows just get worse every year. I keep hoping they'll go away, but I suppose if bad taste is your foundation, you can't go wrong!

I don't like it...I mean why put more pressure and tension in race and religion...they already did a split of men and women and I think that went far enough!
