tit: when i say it looks like a survivor reality show it's because it LOOKS like that (i.e., the look of the video & the shooting style). i don't mean it "the story resembles," i mean "it appears to the eye".
"and now the tribal council decides who goes home"
it's shot to look like reality tv. it's a huge visual turnoff.
as for the story, i never could make sense of it, and the dialogue was shit, so i was never interested. i had tried getting into "alias" before (from the same writer) because there was a hot looking chick in it, but fuck, the storyline was so dull, her legs be damned.
