Survivor finale versus NASCAR Heat online racing

Kai Fuller jokingly asked whether NASCAR Heat's online racing would pull people away from the Survivor finale. Replies were mostly off-topic opinions about reality and quiz TV shows, with a few jokes about NASCAR driver earnings.

To all those people who are really into the show, do you think that NH will be good enough to pull you away from the 2 hour series finale? :) ok ok... how about the sci-fi channel's ExposurE "Star Wars" special? :) hehe

Same here, I couldn't give a sh$t about Survivor or Big Brother. Now 8 porn stars competing in a motel for best sex scene with each week one of them being voted out . . . that I'd watch.

The shop isn't about the million dollars, it's about the political intrigue. I would expect someone who hasn't watched survivor wouldn't understand what it's really about. It's basically a big game of dip[lomacy if you've ever played that game.

Millionaire" to "Jeopardy" is like comparing Spirt of Speed to GPL. It's hard to take it seriously when Regis Philbin (the host) had no idea how to pronounce "Johann Sebastian Bach" -- JOE-han Sebastian BATCH". No kidding.

Kinda funny since the backstabber did not win. The winner was open about playing the game to win and doing what was needed to win. The loser well she did play behind peoples back and tried to show she was still part of an agreement.

Are you kiddin'??? That camera was EXPENSIVE...!

The Austrian, Swiss, German and American "Millionaire" are all carbon-copies of the British original. Now, making a faithful reproduction of a work of art has some merit. Copying a turd, on the other hand... Stephen
