Anthronerding Survivor
Survivor is the show for anthro-couch potatoes who want to study the human animal’s Machiavellian social behavior, says anthroblogger John Hawks. He is a tad apologetic about being too “anthronerdy” about all those bogus “biker skulls” with the “baseball-like” fake sutures, however.
Hawks would also like to see them using real flint and steel instead of magnesium. I’m with him on that. I’d like to see them drop contestants in the middle of the Sahara or the Serengeti or the Amazon and say, “Civilization’s 500 miles that way. If you get there, you win!”

I think someone already came up with that show.
It’s called Iraq.

My dream reality show is drive all the producers and “creative consultants” of said shows in a limousine to the heart of the Bronx and drop them off, and whoever makes it out alive wins.
