Mark Burnet knew what he was doing when he put Big Tom and Stephenie on Survivor. Meeting them on the Charity motorcycle run taught me a lot about what He is looking for in contestants. As I have said before Mark Burnett knows what he’s doing when it comes to the Survivor reality show. Now that he is adding diehard fans against favorites as a format on his next show, which airs Feb. 7, 2008, he will be bringing new life to a show that had slowed down in performance activity compared to many past shows. Because of his brilliance, the Survivor show will be scouting out more contestants for two more shows, which will take the season into the year 2009. I would say not bad for a reality show to last for 9 years, and still holds high ratings for the CBS network on Thursday night slots.

Gloria Query and her Survivor Jungle!!

As long as Burnett brings new ideas to the Survivor show it will rank in Survivor history as perhaps one of the greatest reality tv shows ever! Plunge On Mark Burnett your shows “GOT IT GOING ON POWER.” The brilliance of Burnett can not be questioned, because he has broken the mold for what works in Reality tv. He is connected to everything that works with reality tv. For a man who sold t-shirts on the beach, he has shown what determination and brilliance can bring on great and powerful things.

Last year, all you fans kept e-mailing me to write and think up things for the Survivor reality show. (more…)

Who Are the Fans?

I’m hoping this season of Survivor will bring serious gameplay from everyone. In the past there has always been several who don’t have a clue how to play this game. Hopefully with the casting of people who claim to be real fans, there won’t be anyone on the island that doesn’t know why they are there. I do have some doubts about Kathleen, but time will tell.
So who are these fans? I’ve gathered some information to help you get to know them better.

Jason Siska

Bio: Born in St. John, Virgin Islands, Siska moved to Chicago for five years before moving to the Barrington area for eight years, then moved to Normal, Illinois where he studied history and Spanish for four years at Illinois State University.
Jason is currently a student teacher at Prairie Middle School in Barrington, Illinois, and also coaches gymnastics for middle and elementary school boys.
His hobbies include rock-climbing, soccer and sailing. He describes himself as spontaneous, liberal and inquisitive. He believes his abilities to rock-climb, fish, hunt, camp, cook, fire-tend, swim, boat and being a great masseuse will help him. He is also a certified PADI scuba diver.
Stats: Age 22, single, lives in Fox River Grove, Il., occupation teacher
Quote: “I’m not evil or devious. But I can be. If it comes down to lying, I have no problem.”
Jeff Probst on Jason: Jason loves to compare himself to Ozzy [the returning Favorite from Cook Islands]. He thinks Ozzy is the greatest player to ever participate in Survivor — I think he’s kind of got a man-crush on him. He’s coming on strong in the beginning saying, ‘I’m going to go toe-to-toe with Ozzy. I can climb coconut trees just like he can, I can swim just like he can, and I’m just as athletic as he is.’ My response to that is, it’s one thing to say it and another thing to do it. So he can talk the talk, but the big question is, can he walk the walk?

Joel Anderson

Bio: Joel is a firefighter for the city of Phoenix, Arizona. He assists in the treatment and transport of patients with medical emergencies and also helps fight fires. He has previously worked for a private ambulance company and has also taught. Anderson received a BA in human communications from Arizona State University. (more…)

All Diehard Survivor fans are anxiously awaiting for the results of their tryouts which have been sent in through mail, and many have been to open casting calls throughout the country. Now is the difficult time for all diehards who have tried out for the Survivor 17 Reality show. They want the results and they want to be one of the 800 who will be given interviews at different locations throughout the country. These diehards have the big dream, knowing that the call could very possibly change their life, if they make it to the final 50 who get sent to Los Angeles, California for further evaluation and testing. Then from that 50, 16-20 contestants will be blessed to be contestants on the next Survivor 17 Reality show.

Take it from me, I have vested 8 years and 16 tryouts under my belt seeking a position on the Survivor reality show I love so much. THE meaning of (Gloria Query) in any reality TV Dictionary would mean - diehard fan, determined fan, devoted fan and dreamer who never gives up! I have tried everything that is humanly possible to get on that show. I have used every antic in the book to get their attention. I know they know who I am, but they have never really known who the “REAL ME” is.

All you diehard survivor fans have to just sit back and relax, and have deep seeded faith in yourself. If you have put your whole heart, soul and mind into this goal it can happen for you. It may not happen fast as you like, but it can happen if it is God’s will for you. (more…)

Apllication deadline for Survivor 16 “Micronesia” ended on Jan. 24, 2008. Now, all diehard survivor fan applicants are waiting it out, dreaming for the call for an Interview. 800 lucky Survivor diehard fans will get a call for their interviews which will be scattered throughout the country. The tention is in the air, waiting, dreaming and hoping for the lucky call to the lucky few! Good Luck to all you diehards. They are having interviews close to my home in Virginia Beach, Va. So, I also, wait it out for the 16th time! Keep the faith everyone!

San Diego, California is having open casting calls today. There will be hundreds, possibly thousands of big dreamers. Many will be turned away because they just don’t have enough time to get to all the folks in the lines. If you go to casting calls try to be first 50 in line so you don’t get turned away. Be yourself, and show Survivor what you are made of. I have been to several casting calls, and at all of those casting calls, I was in newspaper and on the news from my video. Yes, I stood out, but you know this won’t be the reason you get on Survivor. They are looking for certain things, and when they see it, they will call you, if you are the lucky one!

I have had 8 years and 16 tryouts and I have still not been blessed to be on show. So, tryouts is anybody’s chance. The odds are high but someone does get selected so give it your best shot. (more…)

Ok, Survivor Fans I have to do a shout out for my son Jason Wilson who is a New York Giants Football fan. It is 9:17 pm Sunday night the 2oth of Jan. 2008 and The New York Giants are playing the Green Bay Packers. They are tied at this moment 20-20! So, a mom has got to do what a mom’s got to do so GO NEW YORK GIANTS!!! Thats my shout out for the New York Giants in honor of my son Jason Wilson, who dared me to do this at this website for him!

In a couple more weeks the Survivor 16 Micronesia will be airring with a new format being used which is diehard fans against prior favorites. There will be a team of 10 diehards against a team of 10 favorites. I have been pushing for this idea to happen for almost a year, and I actually mentioned it in prior article dated March 26, 2007, hoping that Mark Burnettt Productions would pick up on the idea to keep the show running longer. Remember when all us fans were being told that Survivor would not be renewed for much longer and we were all devastated that Survivor was finishing up the last of their shows and then it would be going off the air.

Well, Survivor has kept strong ratings for CBS network for over 8 years on Thursday nights, so looks like it’s around a little longer than we were all expecting after all. YIPPEE YAHOO!!! and all that great stuff LOL!!! (more…)

Well fans I thought up even another idea for Survivor to use!  They are getting ready to have another great show with diehard fans against prior favorites.  It will be airring on Feb. 7, 2008, and should be a stimulating show to watch for sure!

I woke up this morning and said go post this idea before you leave for work. I will come back and elaborate on it more when I have time to write.   Survivor should also consider doing another show with 5 diehard fans & 5 prior favorites on the same team against another team of 5 diehard fans and 5 prior favorites. (Oh what fun and conflict this could bring to each team LOL!)  Ok, fans you keep asking me for more ideas so here’s another one. Let’s see what they do next. I know they are listening to me! At least it seems like they are LOL!

I posted and documented my idea today at onsurvivor.com  Idea by Gloria Query! ( gloriasroom@aol.com )  Posted Jan. 17, 2008        GO “Glo”  remember mymotto  (Humor is healer of all sorrows!)

WOW, WOW, WOW, you survivor fans and avid readers don’t give up! What is going on, is what I keep asking myself. Ideas, ideas and more ideas is what you keep asking me for. So, I have come up with a FUN IDEA for all of you. This idea is strictly something I thought up driving back home from work yesterday. It is not a reality show idea, but it can and will be fun, and could possibly change the life of someone you know. So, try the idea and let’s see what happens with a chain reaction effect. You must know that this idea won’t do anything for anybody except the person you do it for. But, if something happens from this idea and what you do, it can and will make you feel like a super-star person, because of your kindness!

I have already put my idea of kindness and chain reaction into effect. Today, I mailed off my idea to two very important people. I won’t disclose their names, because I feel it is a private thing I am doing. But, I will give you a hint that I mailed my idea off to a big time producer and a big time entertainment attorney. I like to use great people in my experiment of life as I call it LOL! I am getting ready to mail off something Monday to A charity in Maine, called AFFM which is Adoptive and Foster Families of Maine. I will also be sending a ticket to Multiple Sclerosis, because we found out my daughter Melanie has Multiple Sclerosis last month right after Christmas. But I will always be there for her and help in every way I can. I love my daughter and I will do absolutely anything I can to be of help to her. (more…)

Well, It’s a New Year filled with new challenges and I love a real challenge! But before I get started with new challenges I am shouting out my New Year’s Resolution to the world , to the web world, and to Mark Burnett and his Survivor Staff! My primary goal this year is to finally get on the Survivor reality show after 16 tryouts and 8 years of vested time trying!

I will try and use my positive energy and faith in a manner which will change the minds of Survivor Staff. I will try to make no’s into yes’s, and make bad impressions into positive impressions.

I will try to prove what I am made of, and I have a primary goal to get on survivor for my daughter Melanie.

I will try to somehow prove to Survivor staff that I have real heart and determination! It’s time to walk forward and but past things behind us and forge forward with only positive notes.

My New Years Resolution is Posted and I now put my resolution and goal into the hands of our Heavenly Father and the staff at Survivor! Amen (My Motto is “Humor is healer of all sorrows”)

Happy New Year Diehard Survivor fans from good ole “Glo” Gloria Query (gloriasroom@aol.com)
