Just wondering if anyone is watching Suvivor Palau. I'm not a fan of the survivor shows, but I was informed of this through my family, who are big fans of the show. They said, hey you might like to see this one, there's WWII stuff in it! The opening shot showed a wreck of some plane, I honestly couldn't tell, it was a quick shot. It might be worth watching just to see the island and it's wrecks....Anyone?

don't waste your time!!! you can bet that there will not be more than 2.1 milliseconds of a worthwile photo shot of some miscellanious ww 2 wreck or debris that they will stick in as a point of interest. don't waste your time on prime time tv..... it causes brain damage!! tom

They showed several aircraft wrecks in the first few minutes. I wish they showed them longer so I could ID them. I wish I had 39 days to look over that island. That would be fun. Without the cmarea following me around. Just my camera and dreams :wink:

I also noticed that they have incorperated an anti-aircraft gun into the tribal council set.

There is a strong world war II theme going with this one. Many of the props are ammo crates and such. It looked like one of the underwater wrecks was a messed up hellcat. But its really hard to tell.

I am a big fan of the show , in the begining it looks like a corsair or hellcat tucked back away in the weeds and would say about 70% there and a zero under water that the cockpit was pretty much gone.
