Well, that was a disappointment.

Previews for this week's "Survivor: All-Stars" promised an almost pornographic tryst through a Night Vision lens between "Boston" Rob Mariano and Amber Brkich of Brighton in Beaver County. Instead, all viewers saw was some cuddling ("You're so warm," Amber cooed to Rob). And they gave one another baths in the ocean (everybody in the tribe was doing it).

Their fellow contestants know love is in the air despite Amber's protest at Tribal Council: "I'm out here to play 'Survivor.' I'm not here to play a dating game."

Mm-hmm. There's no canoodling in "Survivor"!
