Survivor Guatemala

Is it just me, or is there something offensive about hosting this hybrid soap opera/game show - representing the worst television has to offer, IMO - in a country racked with extreme poverty and plagued with natural disasters?

I've always thought Survivor was a stupid program - but this brings it down to a new low, IMO

Don't mean to soapbox, but this just irks me for some reason.

i have to disagree i think that this show is good for the country because hopefully they are getting some finiancial gain for having it hosted there and they don't seem to be taking a lot from the country and hey it may boost tourism as well.

The tourism thing I might be able to partially believe - but I doubt CBS is investing much in the way of actual capital in the country.
