It is so wrong to pit the races against eachother for ratings...
Survivor just lost my viewership.
Who's with me?

Peaches - I couldn't have said it better...
Why DON'T we put our time and energy into starving kids...
Sad Fact: America doesn't care.
Secondly guys, this is not the "one" issue that I choose to care about - a brief look at my Q&A history will show u that I don't watch too much TV anyway...
Just one less show and another hour doing activism.

PS - my family is part of the Neilson ratings program... so my opinion has an effect.

I'm in!
Hell, I never watched it in the first place. But a mass boycott of a reality show? Hell yeah!

The team swill only be split by race for a few shows I'm sure. Besides I like the show and will continue watching it.
Everyone just looks for things to make political commentary about. Survivor is a tv show! who cares..move on.

That is ridiculous. Who cares how they divide the teams? Isn't is just as wrong to divide teams by gender? They're just trying to make the dynamics interesting, and they're also trying (probably) to spark controversy because "any publicity is good." I don't even watch the show, but I do study race, class, and gender. And I think we're way too worried about race in this country.

i still watch Survivor because it entertains me. I dont care much if the contestants are divided by race. It just shows that everybody is equal. All races have their good and bad side.
If it wasn't equal then they wouldn't have let the other races join... Racists SHOULD watch this show.. so they'll realize that no race is better than the other.

why are you afraid to watch your race lose? People OMG it's television we face racial issues every damn day this isn't any different and eventually HELLO they will be on the same team fighting for themselves its truly sad how much every one is blowing this out of proportion. Hey if we put this much effort into starving kids in Ethiopia or Cambodia guess what MAYBE THEY WOULDN"T BE STARVING!!!!!

After the first two seassons I've lost my enthusisum for the show. So no I won't be watching it. I'm sick of reality shows. Some of that crap is fake b/c the people know they are on camera.
So no. I won't watch it. That is a good point.

survivor lost my viewership a long time back. I do not agree with the pitting of races against each other.

If you are boycotting it, than you didn't watch it. To Bad. It was good. It was funny too. I did not see anything Racist about it. I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be the best season yet.

I'll boycott with you. Of course, I've been boycotting all "reality" TV since it was invented.
