I would love to see them do a season where they just go back to simplicity where no big twists come (which would be a twist since everyone would be expecting them). Hidden idol clues that lead to absolutely no idols, no tribe swaps or anything crazy, just one old school season to see how it matches up. Or even just tell everyone there are no idols and no swaps so that it really does become about keeping the tribes strong.

Of the people who are left, I am hoping either Culpepper, Troyzan or Andrea win and that Michaela goes out next since I see zero redeeming qualities in her. The dumb shit she does at Tribal to try and get giffed is terrible and she is only still around because Cirie is using her as a goat. The "Secret Advantage" thing was hilarious though.

Someone has to sacrifice the feast, Culpepper immediately volunteers... what a bastard! I think my favorite subplot in Survivor might Brad Culpepper, the nice guy everyone hates.

Do I need to spoil things despite being weeks behind?

Debbie is a fucking lunatic... but I appreciate the editing showing how insane she is.... it's another case of "Fuck you Brad Culpepper" when he isn't doing anything wrong... she even thinks she got across Thebes beam with ease and Hali failed repeatedly... which is just wrong

Just watched episode 4... what a ridiculous tribal council. The idol russian roulette was amazing, Culpepper straight up taking a huge chance to give it to Sierra was great. I legit have no idea why people don't like Culpepper, I didn't watch BvW that long ago and at no point was he ever really an asshole to anybody... people were bigger assholes to him and he didn't lash back at them for it.

I can post in this thread now! I've only watch the premier so far but by the weekend I'll be caught up.

All time would have to be Futurama, Supernatural, Firefly, Buffy and Game of Thrones. I can't think of much else that would even come close to those five. I'm also one of the few people that absolutely hated Breaking Bad and regret ever watching it, but I can see why people like it.

Michaela's boot was one of the most ridiculous things I've seen so far. The over the top body language and "did you do that?" "....yes". I think my favorite thing to see in post elimination interviews are people who say eliminating them was a dumb move because they were gonna win if they weren't eliminated. Which, is probably why you were eliminated...

Millennials vs Gen X have given us David. A guy so bad at challenges his tribemates cannot tell if he is intentionally throwing it... and still isn't the worst on his tribe. A 10 second clip may have catapulted Zeke up my favorite list. Thanking Chris and David for saving him and having it immediately cut to a confessional calling them idiots because he knows saving him was a dumb ass move.

Reading the thread from the start and I got to this. I did 10 more seasons in half the time.

Koah Rong or whatever it was called was alright, I have no idea who should have won but I don't think it was anybody in the final 5. I liked Tai but I knew he wasn't going to win at all and I was kind of pulling for Mark the Chicken to get some votes for the million. I guess I'm almost all caught up after a 3 month binge watch.

They didn't really explain why Tasha and Spencer lost, but there was no doubt in my mind that Jeremy was going to win and probably get every vote. Spencer tanked himself int he penultimate tribal and Tasha was just sort of along for the ride the entire game, only Keith had a real shot of beating Jeremy. The main problem I had with Second Chances was I already didn't like Tasha, Spencer and Abi and I got way too much of them. It also made me really dislike Fishbach. I wish we got more Deitz, Varner and Savage.

Spencer sucks so much. He pulled a Russell, doing something to get you to the finals with 0 chance of winning.

I think one of my favorite things about the later seasons is Jeff Probst becoming both a jackass and comically self aware.

Either did I, so I just sat back and enjoyed Mike's journey and everyone else acting like assholes about it.

Dan was a jackass, and kind of an idiot. I think his main problem was that he was a lot dumber than he thought he was so he didn't realize what he was saying was wrong. The whore and sexist comments were bad, but saying domestic abuse and being adopted are practically the same thing was just.... ya. I have a lot of respect for Shirin as well for the Will thing. I like how she didn't accept his shitty apology at the reunion because he genuinely thought it was okay to talk to another human being that way. Will's wife saying he has never treated anyone like that was the real cherry on top because it was aired on national TV.

I ended up really enjoying World's Apart. I didn't really like anybody in the final 9 but seeing Mike take on an alliance of 6 by himself and win was a pretty awesome story because he had to win 5 out of 6 immunity challenges to do it. Despite some early game errors getting him outside the alliance he ended up playing extremely smart to get to the end and to show that trying to get by just by being in an alliance is worthless. Showed his idol to create issues with the alliance, then actually used it to take out his biggest challenge threat (Tyler). Used Carolyn's idol to take out Dan. Sided with Rod/Will to get rid of the next biggest challenge threat (Sierra) and left himself with three useless people in Rodney, Will and Carolyn, and added insult to injury by forcing Rodney and Carolyn into a fire making challenge that went nearly as badly as the one on Fiji. Not as great of a comeback as Chris from Vanuatu but pretty damn entertaining to say the least. I also really liked Jenn's final tribal speech, calling the jury a bunch of bitter assholes because Mike beat them at literally everything. Also, Probst for calling out Rodney for being an entitled asshole because he thought people should have been giving him rewards because it was his birthday.

What the hell is this? The thing on the right, not the thing that looks like a Raticate.

I'm so glad Nat won, I probably would have had to take a break if Jaclyn won, because she sucks. I'm not fully sure why I have seething hate for John and Jaclyn but I just found them to be a shitty couple of Survivor players who felt entitled and like they were sure they were going to win despite not really doing a single thing to deserve it. Reed maybe gets best FTC speech ever though just because it was hilarious and mean without being bitching and whining. I'm also pretty sure Alec was completely spaced out that entire time. I did enjoy Blood vs Water but I would be happy to never see the gimmick return, or at least wait a few years. After many many seasons I think my pool of irrational hatred now belongs to: Lillian, Jon/Jaclyn, Kass, Colton, Alicia, Abi-Marie, Coach, Shannon, NaOnka and Brandon Hantz. I will say the only person in that group that gets a slight pass is Coach because his shittyness can be entertaining at times. The rest don't have any redeeming qualities.

I don't think I've ever felt as much relief in seeing someone voted out as much as John, the guy was a tool who was trying to pander to the jury with like 8 people left. I doubt he would have won had he gotten to the finals anyway but I'm happy he lost. I kinda of hope Natalie wins just because that way the twins can be the 1st person voted out and the winner.

I don't think any other player has made me physically angry to see on screen like Jon has since Lillian. He also seems like Russell levels of stupid when it comes to juries. Except he thinks doing nice things to his alliance or having his alliance not listen to him will get him votes by all the people who he voted out. Like Natalie didn't vote for who she was supposed to on a split so he wants to tell the jury that she.... did that? His strategy seems to be screwing people over but since he was nice to his girlfriend he should win.

This season is actually really dumb. Like Jeff just cancelled a challenge because it was pointless since the majority alliance got to pick who wins and get an immunity idol out of it. Good way to shake up the game there guys...

On Blood vs Water 2, John and Jackie are assholes.
