You could make a very interesting cast from their rejects for 50. Cydney, Jerri, Courtney, and Greg Buist, just for starters.

Yeah, just like last spring; 48 was a snooze and TAR37 was lit.

Yep, historically the loudest edit is the noise, and not the signal. This goes at least double for female players.

You could try it? The main addition, I would say, is that there are hidden advantages, the most powerful of which are hidden immunity idols. (Usually one per starting tribe, and another for the merge tribe.)

Two back to back seasons where TAR was the significantly better of the two.

Yep. To quote Tina, "they have to feed the monkeys if they want us to dance."

It was a response to the pandemic, but CBS is keeping it because it's cheaper. The first 26-day season was 41.

Yeah. For one thing, challenge did not end in a puzzle!

Really would prefer it if they went with a cast of 16 and two tribes of 8, just to change it up. That's a format we know works.

"Purple Kelly" (there are two that season; she's the one with purple in her hair) was done dirty by production and is now famous for it. The legendary "Quiet Adventures of Purple Kelly": funny115.com/v3_2/30.htm

I think if you go in expecting a goofy season, you'll be fine. It's closer in tone to Gabon than Heroes vs. Villains.

I'm a huge Survivor fan.

My favorite example of that lately is the Japanese player for Hawaii's football team, who learned to kick field goals by watching Youtube videos.

And an old one - they've played each other almost 120 times since 1895.

My plans are college football and Project Runway.

I'm retired and was curious, too!

23 & 24 were usually in the 3-4 million viewers an episode range for week 8+. 25 and 26 were usually in the 2.5-3.5 million viewers range. I'll be interested to see what happens to the viewer numbers this time (currently they're more or less 25 or 26, maybe a bit better).

I suspect a lot of us are going cold turkey just about now.

That was me with 21.

Gen Xer here and I love "whatever" but that's not how you use it.

Are they trying to kill the show? Because that is how you kill this show.

Player? Evel Dick. Person? Adam, who used the winnings to fund a drug smuggling operation.
