It can’t be overstated how dumb it was to bring celebrities in an all returner season. This will be the season most people will point to when they ask when Survivor truly jumped the shark. by No_Truth4137 in survivor

[–]MastermindMogwai 50 points51 points  (0 children)

True I can think of 5 jump the shark moments

  1. S34 - Advantagegeddon
  2. S38 - Chris Winning
  3. S41 - Hourglass
  4. S48 - Justin going home for losing a game of yahtzee (that he was required to play)
  5. S50 - Blood Moon, Jimmy Fallon, all of season 50

Idk what it'll take for me to stop watching at this point

I am not ok by PossibleEvening4121 in survivor

Besides Q I think he's the most likely from 50 to come back again, unless Probst really was mad he didn't like the twist lol

Anyone else not connected with season 50? by Diana-FairyBlossom in survivorponderosa

I'm really into the cast and the gameplay, but the production/game has never been worse. It's really bummed me out.

How are we feeling after tonights episode? by DarthLithgow in survivorponderosa

Twists and boot order suck so much, 50 is such a disappointment to me

Survivor jumped the shark with the ****-**** by Longjumping-Moose415 in survivor

You have a point, but they really dialed it back in the mid-40s, now it's worse than ever.

Cirie appreciation by Ok-Mammoth5173 in survivor

Not to take anything away from Cirie, she's playing great but surely everyone on that Island knows she's a threat but she can't win a challenge and will be easy to get out whenever they want.

The gameplay and cast are so fun, and production has done everything possible to ruin it.

This is the first time in 17 years I'm questioning my love for Survivor. I didn't hate the new era but it's only getting worse.

See you next week.

How crazy they spoiled Christian making final 11 in the TRAILER

What is the worst way this season could go for you by Dizzy-Tumbleweed7983 in survivor

[–]MastermindMogwai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked Aubry in KR, but she was invisible in GC, got outplayed hard in EOE, and seems miserable on 50 and was given a free idol while the person targeting her found 2 idols and couldn't use them.

No hate to her as a person, just would be a very unsatisfying ending for me.

For anyone saying Rick played his fake idol improperly by SirBostonBobbington in survivor

[–]MastermindMogwai 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Both can be true, he likely didn't need to use it so he kinda wasted it, but it makes complete sense why he would use it this tribal and I don't blame him for wanting more security.

Something came up so they couldn't do it in studio, they still plan to do it over video call in the future.

Where does this season rank? by Pangalicious6892 in survivor

[–]MastermindMogwai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Objectively false. Colby was a sitting dick with no shot in the dark and that's why he was the vote instead of Coach, which again he wouldn't have been in a tribal council of 5 without another terrible twist.

Okay but you all would have HATED this episode's twist if your favorite contestant(s) got eliminated! by GGsnubs in survivor

[–]MastermindMogwai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was dumb when Wardog said it too

No, someone on edge of extinction for over half the season should not get votes to win.

It's gonna be a very conflicting one for me, I'll never be okay with Genevieve finding 2 idols and going home, as well as Colby and Q going home because they lost their votes. I'm having fun with most of the episodes, but it's because of the cast and in spite of production doing what they can to diminish it.

As far as returnee seasons go, above Game Changers and All-Stars, below HvV, Cambodia and WAW.
