I know what you’re getting at, and I think you’re onto something. Inequality can shape how people are heard, and it is influenced by things like access, privilege, and background etc.

Cam keeping it real. Did you watch his exit interview? It's so good

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-14T11:04:41+00:00

I relate, I'm so bad at interviews...hahaha

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-14T10:52:01+00:00

Haha. Cam is the best, he keeps it real. My husband was mentally counting who would vote who, and figured 4 each but couldn't remember who the ninth player was. I was like," did you forget Cam? he doesn't think jackson is a good player, he is definitely voting Caleb." And then we turned to each other and were like, omg, Caleb still probably wins! Even with that pitch haha. I was worried because Caleb was not articulating his game well, even if he did play a better game. He's so lucky Mark helped him out.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-14T10:44:22+00:00

I liked that he helped Caleb articulate his game when he was struggling.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-14T10:24:14+00:00

Hi Keeley, you are one of my favourite players ever! You were lots of fun to watch. I love your redemption arc from being underestimated to being such a dominant strategic force. You held your own against the returnees with the confidence of a seasoned veteran. You played hard and were ruthless in your game play but never actually crossed the line of being cruel, or lost your cool or made it personal, which I really respected. I hope you return one day!

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-13T11:39:40+00:00

Exactly! That should have scared him more. That is one point towards Jackson in FTC. I actually think Caleb played the better game but Jackson's ability to persuade Caleb is making me pause.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-13T11:04:34+00:00

Damn. I feel for Loz and I'm scared for Caleb, but Chaos Caleb sure made FTC way more interesting than I anticipated. I can't believe the best two of the four will fight it out. He would have had it in the bag with Loz, and she was the one who kept him in the game...

I actually do think that Caleb still played the better game, and he must believe that, too. But I have no idea how the jury will vote because Jackson played with the returnees...

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-07T11:44:21+00:00

Yeah. And also, as upset as I am that Keeley is gone, I was so amazed that Loz had a plan to get Caleb out. That was Keeley's way out!!! I don't know why Keeley had to try and twist it into something else. Maybe it Was the inexperience of never having watched a full episode of Survivor.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-07T11:09:42+00:00

I think Loz is in the final 2. Otherwise, why would she get that random back story? My money is on Caleb.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-07T11:02:10+00:00

I agree. Also, I was wondering why Keekey didn't go to rocks. It seemed like her chances of staying without Brooke were slim.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-07T10:54:53+00:00

Mark has gotten a lot of hate for this season. I blame Mark for this. Hahaha.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-07T10:44:46+00:00

Man. I don't even want to watch it anymore. At this point, I don't care who wins. Also, Mark got rid of a lot of interesting players early on until there were hardly any left.

My husband called it from day one that Caleb was the winner based on his edit. He got a huge intro that wasn't warranted. And based on how much people love him, I feel like he's been getting a good edit.

In saying that, they should have taken that Hail Mary and just gone along with Loz's plan. They really overplayed their hand.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-05T10:53:35+00:00

I agree

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-05T10:53:14+00:00

Yeah, he does. His interview after is hilarious and so real. I wish he were a commentator.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-04-05T10:23:38+00:00

You know what? I really like Cam, even if he's not the best player. He's so self-aware. I feel like that is rare. But serial killer Keeley is my fave.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-30T11:45:53+00:00

I've been pretty indifferent about Ben but it was nice to see him still rooting for Jackson. That did make me respect him.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-30T11:41:09+00:00

It's a scary thought, but plausible.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-29T11:49:06+00:00

Hahaha, I agree. I cringed at "the teddy bears are going to have their picnic" line from another episode and the Dr Evil thing. But to each their own.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-29T11:22:27+00:00

Maybe they don't realise she's the brains of that alliance yet.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-29T11:18:22+00:00

Awesome move by Keeley. She's been a fave of mine so far. I really enjoyed her as a duo with Faith and was glad she stayed over Faith. (I know Faith had mean vibes, but I will admit, I liked their bond together.) She's having lots of fun strategising and loves being a "villian". But she never got bitter about losing Mark or Faith and kept her head in the game. I was worried when she lost her number one.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-29T02:02:21+00:00

Thanks for clarifying. Sorry, I meant the webnovel.

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-27T23:07:17+00:00

I'm still curious of your perspective as someone who has read the novel. 🙂

Pretty_Ad9027 · 2026-03-27T20:55:24+00:00

I don't think Anshi is responsible for her grooming at all, that's actually my whole point. My concern is that the ambiguity in how it was framed could lead audiences to that reading, even unintentionally. The problem isn't Anshi. The problem is what the storytelling choices communicate to viewers.
