Out here in the woop-woops of WA where all the second-class citizens live, we don’t get any digital channels nor Freeview. At the rate things are going analog TV will be switched off before we can receive digital broadcasts. We have to put up with WIN’s pathetic programming, which currently includes the tail end of Survivor Gabon at 10.30pm. I don’t think there is any chance of Survivor Samoa being on before February or March, unless WIN decides nobody wants to watch Tocantins and skips straight to Samoa.

Thanks so much for your constant updates on the Survivor series.
I was ready to watch the Finale of Tocatins (?) tonite, according to my weekly program guide, now at least I know I should not bother to switch to GO at 8.30.
And yes, I ‘slightly’ agree with some of you here – double eps twice a week is a bit of an overload.

I hear it was a NineMSN error.

Once again thanks to David for the attention he has paid to Go’s scheduling of “Survivor Tocantins”.
Thanks Mate.
Who I wonder is the idiot @ Nine & GO who have allowed the ridiculous scheduling we have had to put up with during the broadcasting of “Survivor Tocantin”.
Let’s hope Nine read the comments on this page.
Just a little aside. Wasn’t Coach the greatest asset to this series. He allowed no boredome to decend on us Survivornauts.

5 is a ridiculous amount of episodes per week. I think 2 was just right. Im struggling to find the time for all 5, so they’re sitting on tape at the moment.

I think we have a right to complain also what percentage of people actually download shows anyway?

For those who are worried about Samoa running overtime and missing the start of Tocantins, do what I’m going to do: record Samoa. Watch the Tocantins finale, then watch Samoa later. Problem with that is that could mean low ratings for Samoa.

And 1 episode a week is fine for me. Gabon was fine at 1 a week. 2′s OK, but anything more than 2 is too much. 5 is ridiculous.

@ Zambora RE: 20-1 stuff-ups.

Just be happy that they’re actually showing it. If I was a non-downloader, this would be like Christmas to me because 5 hours of Survivor in one night on FTA? And Samoa being relatively close to the US’s airing?

You guys need to remember that just 1-2 years ago Nine was so behind that it wasn’t funny. If I was a non-downloader I would be so much more appreciative of what Nine is doing…at least they’re frikkin showing it. To all you people who can’t afford broadband or whatever excuse…I really, really wouldn’t complain.

I’m hoping Somoa does well! Then we can push for a fast tracked All Stars next year!

So what was the point of rushing through it at 4 or 5 episodes a week then channel 9 and Go?

Also why does Go have no idea of what programs they are showing? For example when I was watching my 1am recording of Vampire diaries I saw an ad for Go Thursday night of Moonlight at 8:30 then Drop Dead Diva at special time of 9:30 problem was Drop Dead Diva isn’t on House of Wax is.
Also epg guide still say Drop Dead Diva.
