Survivor 38: Edge of Extinction |OT| Where Castaways Attempt to Jump the Shark
- Thread starter SoleSurvivor
- Start date
He was almost certainly like this in the premiere as well (leading to the intra-Lesu voting) but the editors hid it because it was his "comeback" episode and didn't want to make him look bad immediately.
edit: Seasons 1,2,4,6,,7,10,15,16,17,18,19,20,25,28,29,31,32,33,37 are the best-of list I'd recommend.
The post-merge majority alliance apparently.
Seemed like Fishbach was saying it wasn't anything new as well.
I'm sure it's something that people have always used as a landmark to point to post merge, this was probably one of the only real major times where people were actively using it as strategy and with a confessed purpose.
She had me at "Don't trust me, I'll backstab anyone." or whatever that confessional was.
I'm glad that they blindsided one of the two heads of that alliance, but wish it was Ron instead. I can't stand him.
Yeah, I'mpleasently surprised with Victoria, she seems the most clever from the new group. She better land a win or just get voted out early, because she looks like the type of player that will get invited backs and she will have a huge target in her back with her agressive gameplay.
I'm starting to think this season is not as bad as it looks? At least, it seems difficult to predict so far.

She was the only one who listened to the idea of the flip, probably accurately thought it was one vote too early, and even still didn't run and rat but just went with the numbers. I feel like she played deceptively well this episode.
Her Idol and extra vote both died when she was voted out with them.
Pretty sure there was an interview with Jeff that said all advantages die when you are voted out, so her idol is dead now.
Good lord how long ago did that film, I assumed it had aired already.
Team Fun is back? I loved them except for that one time when she showed her dark side at the passport situation..
Well, thanks to that "best of" Reddit post, wife and I ended up binging the Pearl Islands (S7) season this weekend and man that was crazy. There's not much to say beyond Johnny fucking FairPlay. He was so good and played an almost flawless game, how it ended I was bummed but I was just in awe of his game the entire season. He first comes off as this annoying guy who's kind of a dick and doesnt offer a lot physically and then you realize how much of a social game he's playing and he essentially masterminded almost every big move and it was incredible. (Only small demerit is his chauvinism was real cringey and some of the stuff this season involving him and how the show treats women as objects has not aged well at all) Rupert was of course great and I enjoyed Burton and all the twists and turns. Lil was impressive as hell and Sandra played a crazy good understated game.
Just a wonderful season, had us burning through episodes all weekend. Gonna watch China (S 15) now, though what we just watched will be hard to beat.
Guess I will be watching The Amazing Race again. I used to, but the American version got kind of dull. I stopped part way through last year.
Canada has been better and I will watch the next season of it for sure.
I also hope Ron will go next in Survivor

Love this! Pearl Islands and China have long been the go-to "best" all new cast Survivor seasons. Cagayan (28) that aired in 2014 is a later to the game universally beloved season added to that as well.
And agreed on all points about Fairplay. Like you said, the way he acted 15 year ago hasn't aged well in some regards, he's definitely a major standout character in that season and in the history of the game. "The great lie" is still to this day one of the most shocking and memorable moments this show has ever produced.
And if you were wondering, his grandma is STILL alive in 2019.
Enjoy China and continue to keep us (me?) posted. :)

Episode 9 (4/10) Discussion Begins Here
Gavin: "Everyone else didn't want to do exactly what I said, so I guess I'm in a dictatorship."
The last time that happened was the whole thing with Zeke and Varner, but I don't think that's what's going on here lol.
Man, this is just complete chaos.
And it all started because of Aurora rambling about nonsense.
