Does anyone ever wonder why Survivor comes on twice a year, when Big Brother is more popular?

i mean seriously we get the idea of survivor- make fire, build a shelter, got to exile island. big brother is way better and a lot more interesting.

    TRUE THAT- Big Brother is way more strategy involved with veto and stuff and it gets the viewers involved somewhat as well. Survivor is old and a little bit played out. Big Brother owns Survivor now that Survivor is in its 50th season.

    I don't like big brother, I tried, but I just couldn't get into it.

    I am an avid Survivor fan. It's not just about making fire and building shelter. It's about challenges and the different personalities clashing.

    Sorry, but I love Survivor.

    Exactly- I totally agree. I really wish Big Brother was on more often. My personal theory is that while Big Brother is more popular, it also takes up approx. 100 days whereas Survivor is closer to 50 (length of the show itself, not preperation time). Also, Survivor is shown only once a week, but Big Brother is shown 3 times per week. Hope this helps!

    Honestly...I watch Survivor all the time, but have never seen Big Brother. So, I'm glad its on 2 times a year :)

    Here in America, Survivor gets way more ratings then Big Brother. I love Big Brother but when its on in the summber it doesn't get that many viewers.

    I so know what you are talking about. I hate having to wait until the summer time every year for Big Brother. Last season was such a good one with the Allstars, I don't know how they are going to come back and live up to that.

    And yet The Amazing Race keeps winning the Emmy as Best Reality Show.
