Survivor: Race Wars, initial impressions

I'll do more detailed "Survivor" analysis with spoilers in the morning, but so far we're off to a banner start. What have we learned already? Let's seee.

• Asians are good at puzzles
• Black people struggle in the water
  
• White people steal things that rightfully belong to minorities (or, if you prefer, Jews steal other people's resources)
  
• A gay man would rather have a headache than a facial blemish
  

Good stuff. Very, very good stuff. And that's not even accounting for all the self-stereotyping jokes everyone was making in the first 20 minutes, which must have been Burnett's wet dream. I've cautiously defended the concept until now, but this was not an especially strong start.
