Interesting that the show that Mike Darnell was telling us would blow "Survivor" out of the water is turning tail Thursday night for the two-hour season premiere of "Survivor: Gabon"--instead of "Hole In the Wall" at 8 p.m. on Fox we're getting an extra episode of "Kitchen Nightmares," starring Gordon Ramsay, a different kind of hole. (Guess which one, kids?)
"Hole" is scheduled for next Thursday night Oct. 2 ("Nightmares" is off due to the Vice Presidential debate, or Mr. Plagiarist v. Caribou Barbie), but I have the feeling that, if the ratings are any proof, Walberg, his trusty polygraph and the voice of Tasia Valenzia will be at 8 p.m. on Thursday by the time November sweeps start.
