The celebrity power will probably draw new audiences (mostly enduring fans and supporters of these castaways) to the top rating series. These fans will be interested to see how these individuals who are used to the perks and privileges of their stature will endure the same hardships and challenges previous castaways have experienced in the past.

May kasabihan tayo na "First impressions lasts". If we want these new viewers to stay, the first episode must not only be good but great. Ang pinaka kritikal dito ay ang opening scene. This will be the first time to introduce the show to these new viewers.

For the past seasons, its the host who opens up the first episode. Since Richard will be hosting this year, his throngs of fans will be be glued in their sets from the very first moment. Dahil high caliber celebrity host si Richard, karapat dapat na bonggang bongga (Major Major in english) ang gawin niyang opening scene. Eto ang mga suggested kong mga Openning Scenes base sa mga sumikat na Top Rating TV shows, Box-Office Hit Movies, at iba pa:

1. Adopted from Till I Met U: Ok. Picture this. Richard flying a sea plane with KC Concepcion (aren't they a cute couple?) as his passenger along with the celebrity castaways. The plane has problems and they have an emergency landing at sea near the remote island in SP. Richard takes charge by making a tent out of palm leaves and building a fire.

2. Adopted from "The Expendables" by Sylvester Stallone: Richard again a pilot of a military cargo plane flying the celeb castaways (in special ops uniforms acting like mercenaries) to an island country nation. They will try to liberate the inhabitants from an oppressive dictator and a rogue CIA operative. Of course they will also compete in challenges to be the sole survivor.

3. Adopted from "Lost" the tv series. Richard still a pilot but now for a commercial passenger jet of Oceanic Flight 815 flying between Sydney and Los Angeles. Caught in a wild and strong air turbulence, the plane breaks apart in mid air separating the celeb castaways into two tribes..er I mean two groups when both sections of the plane crash in two opposite and unreachable sides of a mysterious island. (this is my top choice for the OSFE kung may budget)

4. Adopted from "Tropic Thunder". Richard and the celebrity castaways try to be action stars in a war movie set in the rebel infested jungles somewhere in Asia. Split into two platoons, the castaways are unaware that they were accidentally separated from the movie crew and are on their own. The jungle, rebels, and action are all real.

5. Adopted from "Dora, the Explorer". Richard is tasked to look for the castaways lost in a remote island. With the help of his trusty backpack and map, Richard moves from one point to the other while the viewers participate in counting, saying new words, and telling swiper not to swipe. After completing a series of activities, Richard finds the castaways. Yay!

I know its a little late to adopt these opening scenes, but who knows?

Counting down to August 30.
