After ABC added an extra night of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire to counter CBS's Survivor, Americans had to choose between watching real people withstand Regis Philbin's questions and watching real people withstand adverse conditions and 15 other disagreeable castaways. Add to that ESPN's broadcast of the Scripps Howard National Spelling Bee, and the carnage of human ego was inescapable...
