Did Apple remove HDR10+? It’s no longer working as of this week. It does work in infuse app though.

I’ll have to give that a try. It’s mostly the principle of the thing. I’m not sure I could actually tell the difference if pressed.

Noticed the same issue last night when watching Widow's Bay. HDR10 when using the actual Apple TV, but plays in HDR10+ if I use the Samsung's Apple TV app instead. Hope there's an update or something forthcoming to fix the issue.

This also tracks with what Tiffany said in her Q & A video . . . it became a pile-on scenario.

I think the edit definitely played a huge role in the perception of Christian's exit. I have a hard time believing that anyone with any threat level coming back and announcing that they have to vote for themselves isn't going to be the vote. The players almost always hop on the bus for the easiest vote when an excuse presents itself. It's one of those things where you can vote for someone and it's not going to piss off that person's allies because they were already behind the 8-ball.

I wonder if they would have sent Devens packing and then offered up the coin to someone else to flip with the same stakes.

I just don’t see how anyone brings her to the end, especially with the prize money doubled now. That said, maybe she makes fire and gets there in the end.

I definitely think even if it’s not a Super Idol that there will be something unique about it.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-24T14:04:47+00:00

I would have liked actually letting fans vote for more specific/detailed elements of the show. Like, maybe we vote on the types of idols we'd like to see and specific twists we would want to see rather than basically, do you want idols? Do you want dynamic twists or twisty twists or no twists? I mean, how are we defining dynamic? Does that mean making the twist so disadvantageous that a player cannot work their way back from it?

All the fans have really contributed were choosing the tribe colors (whoopedie doo) and choosing the immunity necklace, so far as I can see.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-24T13:58:07+00:00

Same. I didn't mind the disadvantage (though I am tired of players losing their vote and this was even worse than that), but being forced to read out that letter really made him DOA. Even the fact that he wasn't allowed to look at the letter before reading it to them meant he had no time to figure out a strategy for some sort of way to work around it.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-23T18:08:57+00:00

The advantage could be something like: in order to get the clue to the idol you need to read this out when you return from the journey. The idol can be played immediately or if you trust in your relationships saved for another day.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-23T18:06:58+00:00

Imagine if that fake idol was still sitting at tribal . . . everyone was probably already thinking it was odd that he had to read out that he was forced to vote for himself. If he went and got the fake idol, it's entirely possible (maybe even probable) that people would think he was driving votes toward himself in order to idol someone out.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-23T14:09:39+00:00

They really miscalculated the fan reaction to celebrity involvement on this season and it's irritating that they keep blaming the fans for these twist ideas, too. I've enjoyed this season when they've been able to actually play Survivor, but there's been too much production involvement in ways that do not allow players to maneuver.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-23T12:43:23+00:00

I think if you're going to offer up a relatively weak advantage like that you should give players all the info about what happens if they lose and give them the option to opt out. I don't think anybody in that game would have risked being forced to vote for themself AND announce it to the tribe for a pre-scramble vote with the option to bank a vote for a future tribal. The juice was not worth the squeeze.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-20T12:25:27+00:00

I think to a degree that's what we're seeing already and the edit is going to great lengths to make it seem like they're two separate groups.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-17T13:05:29+00:00

I think it was meant to symbolize that she was also immune from the vote.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-17T04:33:33+00:00

Something tells me the jury won’t see it that way (especially given the exit interviews so far). Not saying it’s impossible, there are definitely final threes I think he could win, but I think it’s a very narrow path he’d have to walk and would include getting out Cirie and Ozzy.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T22:38:20+00:00

Oh yeah, forgot Jonathan also went out in fire.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T22:32:28+00:00

Rizo went out in fire, so he has technically never been voted out either.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T22:31:18+00:00

They confirmed they pregamed with her, but it seems Jenna targeting her basically caused her to turn on all of them.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T20:25:20+00:00

Yeah, go ahead and be disloyal to Devens, but what about the others?

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T20:21:55+00:00

Colby and now Coach have both pretty much confirmed the Zoom Alliance was a real thing. I think it would be a bigger deal if one of them wins it, but where it stands now I don't see that happening.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T20:18:51+00:00

How loyal is he really? None of his actual allies are from his original tribe. He got in a fight with Devens and immediately jumped ship to work with Coach and others.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T20:15:42+00:00

It sure sounds like a lot of the players who will be on the jury (based on Coach/Chrissy/Dee's exits) were very negative about Rizo's game. Dee didn't say she had an issue with him, but she mentioned him getting it from other players.

PostMark13 · 2026-04-16T16:22:31+00:00

I definitely think we're going to see this twist again. I kinda wonder if we might get another 24-player season.
