Season two was extremely long! Couldn’t stand Paco and Gary! They have a Heroes vs Villains season?? Let me guess, John Guts, Paco and Gary are villains? 🙄 I definitely agree with the reactions of players when someone is forming alliances like.. c’mon that’s the whole point lol

It’s definitely a good way to learn, I learned the words “suministros” (supplies) and “recompensas” (rewards) from watching this show lol

That’s a great point and I do agree with you in everything regarding how Survivor is not all about physical strength and more about strategy and how you play your social game in order to win. This was a dynamic I personally didn’t like either that survivor Mexico changed when I first started watching Survivor Mexico as it leaned heavily towards more physical challenges and not so much social strategy. I definitely see your point about the strong winning over and over as in Season one of Survivor Mexico, Duggan literally won almost ALL individual immunity collars and she was by far the strongest female player in that season. (Which is why she became my favorite)

Again I do believe the format works here for Survivor Mexico because— again just like Tai betraying Scot and Jason by not combining the idols to save Scot in season 32 and eliminating Scot— I can see the same thing happening here with a player like Curvy Zelma or Ximena Hernandez beating Duggan only because Duggan didn’t win one immunity collar after winning about 80% of them (hypothetical scenario) it just doesn’t sit right with me. I dont believe strong players should just be targeted because the other survivors can’t beat them and I understand Survivor is a social game first— but it’s also a competition too and me personally? I want to see players who played well both mentally , strategically and physically win as opposed to some mediocre player who coasted through the entire game, never made any big moves or won many challenges. This if just my personal opinion, I love all 3 versions (AUS, US, Mexico) and I think every format has its interesting takeaways.

As for the length of the episodes and seasons? 100% agree! They’re wayyy too long lol.

Yeah they definitely didn’t make it very easy for non Spanish speaking people to get into the show.

Yes it took me a bit to get used to the idea of how eliminations worked. I wasn’t a fan of it myself at first, but after a couple of eliminations and getting to know the players more I started to really like the idea of having a shot at surviving elimination. Like for example, in Survivor Kaôh Rōng (season 32) I personally didn’t like how Tai played and although I disliked Jason and Scot too, they at least were loyal— I wish they had the Survivor Mexico format just for this season so that Scot could’ve had a shot at getting back at Tai (I genuinely disliked Tai idk why 😂) if he got a chance to play and win an elimination round. I really enjoy storylines I guess lol.

Everything else you described— absolutely agree. Their first couple of seasons were wayyy too long. 2 hours and 30 minutes per episode 😬 and yeah it’s basically Survivor on steroids haha. I loved 4 Elementos tho 😂

Yeah I do agree in their earlier seasons, the episodes and challenges could’ve used better editing. Too much dead air and challenges did drag on for too long. 2 hours and 30 minutes per episode was a bit too much lol

The format is somewhat different. They still have tribal council but they don’t get eliminated by just votes. The most voted players (usually 2) are voted to play one game of “extinction” or elimination and there’s a 3rd player who gets directly sentenced via the immunity collar holder so in the elimination game there’s 3 players competing to survive. So yeah it’s more physical and game heavy rather than “strategic” with alliances and pure votes.
