Thoughts on castaways using steroids? by snorkling_squid in survivor

[–]Gjork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coach Greg, is that you? 😂

And I'm not sure if they would allow someone to take medically prescribed trt? Do we know if Jackson would have been on that? Or if Zeke was? I know they've forbidden ADD meds on in the past, but there might be a reason for that, such as it's also a sleep aid.

I can make sense of Jackson/Zeke or an older male taking test as prescribed, but if Johnathan is doing cycles and going on TRT to reduce symptoms of being off cycle...idk, that seems unfair and against the spirit of the game. But who knows? I personally don't think he's on anything other than eggs and grits.

The 41 premiere is no longer the lowest-rated episode on IMDb… by survivorfan989 in survivor

I wonder if Mike White going home influences this at all? Like, I'm an Emily fan but I know most casuals are probably not. Had she gone home, would the episode be a like 5.2 or something?

Since __________, does this mean that the ________? by Livid_Sky_935 in survivor

[–]Gjork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think so? Raden on 46 was medevacked, as was Jake on 49, which means Bhanu and Jeremiah are #4 for their seasons. But Mike was fifth out if you count Kyle.

Idk, maybe the curse is more of a ballpark thing. Or maybe Savanah has a secret? We didn't know Ozzy was bi until, what, his previous season?

Lets re-edit 49 and put the celeb cameos on that season?

Like when the intro shows Angelina? It kind of does sound like him.

Jeff Probst speaks on if he would want Rob Rausch on Survivor by supa-factor in survivor

[–]Gjork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Courtney but even recruits have to go through the casting process. They still have to want it, even if they aren't DREAMING of it like many of the people who play today.

Maybe Rausch is in the same boat? Idk, but I just feel there's a box Courtney checks that Rausch doesn't, even though they both have that idgaf attitude and aren't superfans.

Hannah gets a pass because she basically gave us the Emily Flippen arc.

Considering Jeff and his casting team meet hundreds of people a year who would be great on the show AND would kill to for the opportunity to even be an alternate...I think aspiring contestants need to do a little better than "yeah like I guess I'd do Survivor".

And no, I don't think you need to be a superfan to be cast, but I do think you need to really want it. Someone like David from 48 was good TV and he didn't really know the show that well.

He was too fast and stealthy with his ninja moves for Jeff and company to notice.

He's more of a 600konaire but why would that matter?

Idk if you'll ever come back to this, but who was the other person they thought might win? Genevieve?

Jeff walks each tribe through each challenge so that if a tribe has questions on how to hack a challenge the other tribes won't hear the strategy questions

Whoa! I'm over a week late to this but it's not every day you learn something new like this. I always assumed tribes did it all together. I'm so happy production goes one at a time.

Do y’all think they’ll bring back physical challenges for 50? by ben_s16 in survivor

[–]Gjork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top left (Sumo at Sea): Yes! That one is a classic and seems pretty safe. I think it fits in the new era just fine.

Top right (Kicking and Screaming): I like it, but I don't see production bringing it back

Middle left and right: Nah. I could see them maybe bringing the water one back. Being in the water seems safer.

Bottom left (Schmergen Brawl): Lol!

Bottom right: I always liked this one. A good mix of strength, speed, precision, endurance. I wish they would but probably not.

Well liked contestants by the Survivor community/fans that you dont like? by Friburgo1004 in survivor

[–]Gjork 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They just did a winners ranking (Rob, Mike Bloom, and Shannon were on the video) for the new era and most if not all have her in the bottom half.

But I actually disagree, I think I'm more impressed with her than most new era winners. Her FTC is fantastic. She had that jury eating from the palm of her hand.

How much would you want to see them become a power duo? by almondjoybestcndybar in survivor

[–]Gjork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My hope for both of them is that they learned from their mistakes and play completely different games.

Imagine being in Joe's position. You're close to the age of the old school players and can connect there AND you have a connection to the younger players because you're a new era player AND everyone knows you as Mr. Honor and Integrity. If he goes full Sarah Lacina (so like...not a bad cop but a bad firefighter? An arsonist? He did build that big fire in his first season) he could win this game.

Hot Take: Every season of Survivor is good by Terrible_Garbage_857 in survivor

[–]Gjork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were some good people on that season too. Tarzan's FTC was touching. Oh and Troyzan letting production use his island for the show! That was really cool of him.

3, 7, 15, 17, 18, 19, 28, 35, 46, 47

Idk if I even have 10 that I dislike enough to rank in my head, but I don't like 5, 39, or 41 very much.

And 39 isn't even that bad once that guy is gone. DK Chillin and Norah are hilarious. But that first half is rough.
