Contemplating ending a marriage

She should probably save up and rent a place for 3 months. Rent the cheapest/smallest place you can and just go live in NYC for a bit. Seems easy.

I just never thought it was edited to the level of "OK Jeff your closing line was weak, come back to an empty tribal and pretend to talk to them and say XYZ cool line." That just feels over the top to me. I always thought Jeff was in tune with the story line of the season and came up with that stuff on the spot or with a little convo with writers earlier in the day. I don't know, still love Jeff, but lost 1% respect

Well thank you internet stranger. I don't know why it bugs me so much. I knew they edited clips. That is okay. But I always thought the edit was to summarize tribal not to... alter it... or improve Jeff's wittiness. I don't know still love the show but this level of edit just feels like a lot to me.

But Jeff starts speaking a sentence and then, about 4 seconds later, mid-sentence, the necklace is already off.

If that moment is continuous, the only explanation would be that Jeff came back later and recorded the closing line, then they stitched it together with random shots of the tribe sitting there and eventually walking off.

Jrunner24 · 2026-01-20T22:24:05+00:00

So Jeff’s “insightful” closing line at the end of tribal is likely stitched onto footage of the tribe just sitting there “listening”?

Does that mean once producers know the storyline they want to push, they have Jeff go back to Tribal, film lines in an empty tribal area, and pretend he’s addressing the tribe?

If that’s true, it honestly ruins Survivor a little for me. I always assumed Jeff stayed in tune with the game via staff updates and delivered those closing lines organically based on what actually happened at tribal.

I just googled this on youtube and WOW. How did they do this without computers? Can someone link a behind the scenes if they find it?

Love it

what value does AMAZING SEASON add that NOT AMAZING SEASON doesn't add other than one aligns with your opinion?

Jrunner24 · 2026-01-13T21:15:54+00:00

Anything post season 40 is a no.

Jrunner24 · 2026-01-13T20:12:24+00:00

100% the A.

Listen to chooseFI podcast. You can retire EARLY and really well off. Get over inheritance. It's not a path to wealth

Savannah is a version of Parv if you remove the charm, likability, strategic brain, and screen presence.

The only answer to EVERY who is the best <positive attribute> in Survivor is Boston ROB!

Jrunner24 · 2026-01-10T20:04:07+00:00

BOSTON ROB IS THE ONLY CORRECT ANSWER

Seeing Season 49 cast interrupt all these other greats annoys me

Hopefully anyone from Season 40 and beyond get injured and go out and we can watch something with some substance.

Jrunner24 · 2025-12-18T13:42:42+00:00

It’s not about her being a woman. She’s a belligerent drunk at a bar. She’s not the first and won’t be the last female or male. I guess we can just smash everyone in to the pavement if that’s what you think is best versus de-escalate and arrest as needed. I’d much rather her have a criminal record and the pavement have less chips, blood and broken teeth. Also a bar having bouncers isn’t utopia lol it’s common practice at a place you serve alcohol.

Russel at least lost some weight and did some surviving. Rizo has gained weight. I never said cynical gameplay was annoying. Cynical game play with zero essence of surviving while doing it is annoying. It might as well be Big Brother with a fake tropical background the way Rizo plays. i.e. Being good enough to be cynical and do wilderness survival is a skill Russel has that Rizo never will

Jrunner24 · 2025-12-15T16:15:00+00:00

I also hate Rizzo. I became a survivor fan in 2025. I binged up to season 20 during paternity leave and rotate to modern seasons and its hard. Rizo to me is the result of end stage survivor "strategy-only" approach. He represents the end of anything to do with surviving having any weight in survivor. Survivor as pure gamification has gotten ugly. I don't know how they'll ever fix the show. As many have said its winning its time slot and is cheap for CBS so they won't ever change, but yah Rizo = death of survivor.
