Survivor: GENERAL THREAD
I wanted to post something Survivor related but realized there's no general thread about Survivor. Each thread is about a particular season or votes for hottest, best, etc.
Given that who knows when/if the show will come back, here's a general thread to post all things Survivor.
I won't ruin the OP with my content post, so it will come next.
Enjoy and come on in guys!
Venus is toast. Zero EQ.
This is a great challenge
The first two eliminations of the last two seasons are a ****ing embarrassment to the integrity of the game.
just watched, that was a great final challenge. instead of watching 2 people put a boring puzzle together while the rest of the tribe twiddles their thumbs, this puzzle required the whole team. and it looked frustrating as hell. Loved it
Jess never showed up. Still in la la land.
Bhanu is a mental patient.
Liz needs to be flown off the island asap.
I thought Kenzie was going to be a really good player, but then she explored going on a chaos ride with Jess and Bhanu which seems like a really bad idea. Q and Tiffany might be better (therefore more dangerous) players and more married to each other than to Kenzie, but Bhanu and Jess are both not someone you want to have to count on down the road in a game of sneaky scheming. Either of them might just tell everyone all your plans. No.
Cast is too nerdy. This is coming from someone who is pretty nerdy. It takes all kinds. And I like weirdos and nerds...can even identify. Where are the regular folk? Part of the interesting dynamic used to be throwing different kinds of people in the pot together and seeing how they interact. Seems like the entire cast was bought off the irregular rack.

Liz needs to be dropped into a volcano. How does someone that successful be so socially idiotic that she doesn’t realize that advertising that she doesn’t need the money at all might be a bad idea? To say nothing of how cloyingly braggadocious she is, and the referring to herself in 3rd person.
Jeff “Who’s sitting out for you guys?”
Liz “The one and only Liz!!”
Lady, this isn’t a moment where you’re shining. You’re sitting out of the challenge. Jfc
There are also probably another half dozen people this season playing aggressively terribly.
Count me in the camp as having pretty low expectations.

When everyone is a quirky odd ball, nobody is a quirky odd ball.
The guy who just couldn't wait to let everyone know how many Taylor Swift songs he knows is so cringe. I hate him so much that I want to keep hate watching just to root against him.
The purple tribe reminds me of the Jtia/Spencer/Garrett terrible tribe. I do kinda like Kenzie though. She plays way too hard for no reason but that makes for good TV.
It seems like they're trying hard to build up Venus vs Tevin into a new Bruce/Katurah thing so maybe that will make for some entertaining fireworks. Otherwise, cast still sucks big time and hasn't grown much on me at all.
Traitor ending was good for one thing, it insured I never have to watch that garbage show again.
I looked up this Liz. Seems like she's a huckster for some bs course, selling get rich quick schemes by saying she's rich and it's easy. She's a con artist and using survivor to gain notoriety and legitimacy. Really surprised she got thru casting.

She gives off Mikki Mase vibes. Could see her telling everyone she has a baccarat system that's unbeatable in a year or so.
Damn, I thought she was just rich and in it for the experience.

Hahaha. My guess was she ran her own business but was in no way actually successful. Huckster is next level. And lol casting, guess that's the way to get on. Normal people won't be cast, have to be a freak.

1 Jungle Jem
2 Benevolence
3 Papaya Papa
4 Lieutenant Mom
5 Mochete
6 Tarzan
Bhanu seems legitimately like he could have mental illness. Looks on the verge of a full-blown meltdown at any moment. Goes way beyond just quirkiness, or wearing his heart on his sleeve... guy seems bipolar or something.
I dont think you understand. His family is from India

no sleep can make you mentally unhealthy really quickly. I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often on survivor
The reason we haven't seen episodes like that much before on Survivor is because they used to cast normal people. Now they cast completely unhinged people to appeal to the woke mob, and those types of people are far more likely to have mental breakdowns due to less food/sleep.
Going to be the first to predict a Jungle Jem win.
Ive said this a bunch of times before, but why can’t they just cast a more diverse group of models, bartenders, construction workers, med / law school students, surfing instructors, and firemen? The original conception of this show had all of the game play aspects while also being great to look at. Now, not so much.
Because they don’t want to
