Surviving "Survivor"


The show:
"Survivor: Samoa"

The issue:
The reality of reality

The set-up:
After 18 other seasons, you know the drill: A group of strangers is sent to live in a challenging environment, divide into teams and face off in challenges in which the losing team votes someone off the tribe. In this 19th incarnation, the living conditions on Samoa are unusually brutal.
