Survivor: GENERAL THREAD

Liking your power rankings. Really rooting for Kyle and Kamilla to bulldoze or at least Mary to make a run.

Finding it very hard to predict this season currently which makes a nice change as some of the New Era seasons had very telegraphed winners I clocked in the pre merge (Yamyam, Dee)

Where I'm at currently

Contenders
1) David
2) Kyle
3) Eva
4) Joe

Former Contenders drifting
5) Sharhin
6) Kamilla

Dark horses
7) Mitch
8) Star
9) Mary

The drawing dead gang
10) Sai
11) cedrick
12) Chrissy

When Sai left she said these Hoochies are lucky they voted me out when they did ...... what is a Hoochie?

Hoochie Lives Matter

Ain't nuthin' but a hoochie mama

I think we can all agree that it would not have been included if Cedrek said it.

Cedrek dropping his **** in ten seconds

I always thought it was a racist term for a Hispanic woman.

I never equated it with being race specific. To me it always just meant a woman of questionable morals (you know, a slut).

Impressive Cedric stats

Ep1 - Tribe lost immunity
Ep2 - Tribe lost immunity
Ep3 - Tribe lost immunity
Ep4 - Tribe wins immunity
Ep5 - Tribe lost immunity
Ep6 - Tribe lost mergatory challenge
Ep7 - Out in 5 seconds

Definitely in the top 5 male woat challengers alongside Brandon from s45 and Chet

I rarely watch Big Brother but found this interesting. Mickey Rourke has agreed to leave the UK Celebrity Big Brother House for offensive language and behavior.

That got me thinking, how many survivor contestants have gotten the boot during the season from the production team? I am not asking about 'injuries' and health issues but OFFENSIVE BEHAVIOUR.

I remember the season where Dan Spilo got too close and invaded 'personal space' of other contestants (and member of camera crew?) but where there others?

I believe he was the only one.

Thank god Sai and Cedrek are gone. Terrible contestants.

Someone in the most recent season of Australian Survivor a player with a purple edit 'silent quit' and there has been a lot of speculation to being forcefully removed and the reasons why.

Coincidently the season finished yesterday. Once again blew new era Survivor out of the water. A 48 day season with final 2 has so much gravitas in comparison to all the silliness we see week in week out

I feel like producers are really working hard to manufacture non existent splits this year and it's going to be a boring next few episodes while Mitch and Star get voted out uneventfully, then Mary, then Shauhin, then at F5, you have Joe/Eva and Kyle/Kamila both trying to get David to come to their side.

Kyle and Kamila are really good at this game. Chrissy, not so much.

I thought Chrissy was going either way, but she certainly sealed her fate at TC.

Rediculous at this point that nobody has figured out Kyle-Kamilia, especially after that episode. Kyle repeating over and over ‘it doesn’t make sense’ while giving zero logical reasons why. We haven’t seen nagging like that to save someone since Rob saved Amber.

At least David has half a brain and asked the question why Kyle wanted to save kamilia so badly. Joe? Eva? Shaughin? Even Mary isn’t sus? who I thought was pretty smart

I woukd like to officially take back David as my final 13 winner pick

People may mock me but Mitch has had two very strong episodes in a row edit wise so i'm now officially all in on him as my final winner pick.

Who put a nickel in Mary?

Incredibly boring level one survivor dynamics. Definitely a snooze. Terrible episode.

Kyle played it really poorly in that five person conversation. He had to just take the L and talk to Joe privately, which he ultimately did. But not until after he buried himself.

But i think he and Kamilla are the heroic duo of the season and we’re supposed to like them.
I don’t know how I feel about Kamilla seemingly (from what we saw) sitting back and doing nothing with her name at risk. But it worked in the end and that’s what matters. We can’t at least see her speak to Joe and Eva and Shauhin herself? I dont know how it fares for her chances to win.

I dozed in and out during the first half. It could have been the booze. But I didn’t really start caring until after the challenge was complete.

Shauhin got really conspicuous “i love my position” confessionals in the last two eps and survived. He mainly stayed out of the fray before the vote and just brought the hammer down on Chrissy. Makes it seem like all these duos eat each other and Shauhin is there at the end with a good chance if he can fade Eva just getting the money.

This also seems like the nadir of Kamilla’s game. With the foreshadowing of her working with her original tribe, it could just be an ascension from here until final. Her sassy comment about jury management was a very bad look though and she would have to get to the end with the right people
