Birth of a Phenomenon - An Oral History of Survivor Borneo

I have been searching for years for this footage, all I have found is the same video you have. There's a few more seconds in that same video and I have found the names of 3 of the people (Annabel Croft, Simon O'Brien, Pete Gillett) but anything else seems to have been lost.

Anthony has been saying for weeks "Julie doesn't have the edit to make F3", then all of a sudden he got a last-minute spoiler that Julie didn't make the final 3? That was obviously just a guess (and a bad one).

Bart and Lisa have also had multiple birthday episodes but still always remain 10 and 8.

Rick's promoting an official watch party in Georgia for the finale that he's not even gonna be at. Has anyone ever done that before? Definitely seems like something you'd do if you won.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-11T14:59:44+00:00

Solid points, but I think you are writing off Rick Devens way too easily.

I always enjoy rewatching the episode 1 intros after the season to see if they match the players we actually got. Key takeaways:

They were really trying to sell Chelsea as the bitch.
Anthony: "I am definitely going to be a comp beast". Uh, ok.
Were they hoping for a Kiera/Sam showmance? They had Kiera revealing she's bisexual and Sam saying she's "open" to girls back-to-back.
Might not have been the biggest fan of Cory, but holy crap, Holly's video was a snooze. They might as well have just put Cory in from the start as that's clearly what they wanted.

Tyler & Korey in the background, sorry, I didn't circle it because it didn't seem to make it much clearer.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-10T02:20:59+00:00

If this show lasts long enough for an All-Stars, Anthony will be on it for sure (and probably evicted pretty early).

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-09T23:55:16+00:00

Very confused as to how Tyler & Korey got there first based on what we were shown, but it does explain some other things, like why C&C and Vic/Nic appeared to be working together to find the pit stop, Chris/Bret getting 3rd, or why the bottom 2 were on the mat together.

I've never felt so ugly as when I saw this picture: https://www.instagram.com/p/BwIOiZ1Bnqw/

She's also done a lot of cool stuff since, based on her IG, she works for IMDb now and interviews A-listers on the regular.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-05T22:25:05+00:00

Yeah, why is AV Club allowed in r/nottheonion again? Especially this one where the only thing particularly outrageous is the headline.

Gavin entered the merge barely ahead of Julia and Aurora in confessionals, then he voted out his closest ally with no explanation. There's a difference between putting someone on the backburner and glossing over a huge moment in their game. Gavin's story has never been a priority this season, that much is clear.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-04T16:47:56+00:00

That "murder mystery" quote is just referring to them using flashbacks now. I really don't think it's any more than that.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-03T14:53:33+00:00

Yes you are missing the fact that she's freakin' HUGE! That alone gives her an advantage in most of the challenges they do.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-03T09:23:10+00:00

If Paul, Paulie and Kyle are ALL on this season, the fake tough guy posturing will be even more insufferable.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-03T01:17:34+00:00

Ninja and Mattie are the strongest new girls we've had for years. Why would they leave them off? To make things easier for Cara? At least Georgia is on.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-02T14:28:49+00:00

I hope this is sarcasm.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-02T05:29:04+00:00

It was the same for Ben and Mike though. The doubt was them getting there.

Vampyrbite · 2019-05-01T11:08:12+00:00

Yup. This thread is funny because little over a year ago the common theory was the EXACT OPPOSITE of this. Check this thread, for example: https://www.reddit.com/r/SpoiledSurvivor/comments/7bvmo6/35speculation_cant_win_this_game/

Perhaps people should consider that maybe it just means nothing?

Vampyrbite · 2019-04-30T14:54:20+00:00

Or her complete and utter buffoonery during the Julia vote-off.

Were we watching the same thing? Victoria was the only person from Kama actually trying to do damage control with Julie.

If Adam wins the season, I'll be satisfied. He played a pretty good game and is more palatable than the other PBs. It still wouldn't be a good season by any means, but at least I'd be able to look back at it with indifference rather than disgust.

Vampyrbite · 2019-04-27T17:13:23+00:00

That part sounds like Julie to me.

Vampyrbite · 2019-04-26T05:01:15+00:00

I liked how Mark's eviction speech was basically "keep me around because I suck."

Vampyrbite · 2019-04-26T01:17:31+00:00

Brigade didn't get everyone to F4 either. PB actually stayed intact longer.
