We’ve missed physical 100 too!!! Looks like we have a show to fill the void now. Thanks for saving our lives, Lian

I have never seen Survivor either somehow. I remember when it started I was adamant that reality TV was a waste of time. But, it’s now years later and I admit I’ve been sucked into a few reality shows, so you’ve convinced me to give it a shot!

I remember I was the same! i felt like reality tv shows were all stupid and a waste of time but when the pandemic hit I realized it's nice being able to just enjoy something super dramatic and over the top! there's no shame in enjoying it once in a while :)

I'll say it again: love your newsletter! I've never watched Survivor, or realities, but I was so hooked up to a TV program called Wiped Out! I could watch those people fly for hours! So, totally get it!

AW thank you Juliana!! I thought I had never seen Wiped Out but I just looked it up and it unearthed some memories of watching it as a child. Definitely a very enjoyable time

When I was in NY I meant to tell you my son and I had gotten really into Physical 100. We were sad to run out of episodes.

It's time for you guys to try out Survivor!! It's a similar vibe in that it's a lot of people doing absurb physical challenges but with an added layer of drama and interpersonal relationships! I feel like your son might enjoy it :)

Wait till you meet Rupert Boneham in season 7. I still think about him sometimes.

I think he's in an allstar season as well, which was even better? I just find him utterly delightful.
