Survivor: GENERAL THREAD

Well the entertainment level of the rest of the season just took a hit. If Christian and devens go next it’s gonna be a slog to the end

Also I don’t believe for one second Cirrie found that coconut without producer help

Whatever it took to get the Cirie whinefest off the screen. I love her as a player and a strategist, but ffs do we have to get a "she overcame the biggest challenge in the world" every time she's on, and this time even a montage? She is so much more enjoyable to watch back at camp when she's pulling strings and manipulating votes.

You mean like the camera set up looking at the coconut with the sign and Cirie in the background?

Poor Coach.

At least we got a decent fan twist for once.

So long Coach, For me the best casting choice Survivor has ever made.

I've seen the tied destinies twist before in Survivor South Africa and liked it then too. Would be happy to see it replace the new era staple of splitting into 2 groups of 6 at the final 12 and each voting a person off.

Personally, after South Pacific, I got turned off from Coach, as well as Ozzy.

I kind of enjoyed this iteration of coach - he was clearly not out there harboring much of a dream of winning, so just decided to have fun and be himself and maybe make a few moments to remember. I never got the sense he was taking himself seriously like in the past, and that now he was just having fun playing this caricature.

Was a good twist. Onto next week.

Don't think 1 idol should save both, but I get their need for needing to eliminate 2 ppl. If idol saves 1, just run it back next ep.

So long Coach. You are a legend. We will never see another Dragon Slayer!

Makes for more interesting game play. You want someone out but need to worry about their partner's idol.

Who knows how it went down. But man if i chose my partner and then voted out because of him, that would sting about as hard as anything. Random partners for me

Yeah I really liked the twist and how it affected game play in a way that hasn't been seen before. I hope they make it a semi-regular feature, like they did with the firemaking challenge (they still do that right?).

Impressed with Rick from a bot perspective. I wasnt sure he had all that in him but Christian and Emily are around.

To not tell Aubry, not use it, have a good explanation for not using it, and to not reveal much under scrutiny. Very well done as presented on the show.

It seems as if the tension between him and the opps has only intensified. He wont win the show but he won the episode

Some people win the show and never win a single episode

I'd be more stung by being randomly partnered with someone and out because of them, than I would be if I chose them.

I had to Google oscar to know who you're talking about.

No, I don't see him winning. Outside of challenges, I don't remember a single positive for him

Ozzy was a surfer bum. Oscar manages a restaurant. We are not the same

I have asked you before (and in PMs) and I am still waiting for an apology for this incorrect and unfounded post. I am not sure who you have me confused with, or whether you think it is ok to just spew this and not be accountable for it, but I think you should explain what in my posting history makes you think I hate women. When you can't, you should apologize for it.

Personally, I think you posting this and then ignoring my concern is pretty cowardly. Back it up or retract it. Ownership is not hard.

Stephanie has confirmed someone whispered to her on the journey to Tribal that the vote was on Coach + Chrissy and to vote with the numbers or be next out (I'm guessing it was Cirie or maybe Oscar who looped her in)

So essentially not a single vote was flipped from Devons idol gambit

Still a fun tv moment though

Devens also still has his idol, that people may think is real

Can you imagine Aubry’s rage if they had been voted off? Lol

A+ entertainment watching Probst compete. However there was no side bet - it was just a free roll. Should have been "if you all outlast me, you get the rice. The first person who drops before me, no rice, and that person loses their vote."

I'm also with Jeff - I can't tell if Christian was really furious about the twist or not.
