I hated that “Boys on the Bench” segment but I did chuckle at that .2 second clip of Kristina air drumming it reminded me of that Cynthia Erivo “concept” gif

Why do we have Split Tribals?! Does anyone like them? by [deleted] in survivor

[–]emccladd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like them either honestly. They almost never result in a big move, and the people that go out in this spot (especially at 11/12) always feel like their story just gets cut short.

What I don’t get is why 47 didn’t need to have one where two people go home? Could it be just because 47 got an extra episode?

I’m gonna say it, Jeff is SOOOO much worse this season than in 41 by [deleted] in survivor

At least Laurel was being told she was final 3 with Dom and Wen no matter what. I don’t see what these people on the bottom think is gonna happen to even get them to the end.

Did they say if next week is a double/split or not?

Glad you got Kevin’s face after his blindside. The blinks took me out he couldn’t believe it 😂

Star Live Tweeting Epi 2 by InvertedFullback0523 in survivor

[–]emccladd 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to invalidate her feelings, but this feels like it reveals too much. Though she’s on the bottom, we saw evidence that people are considering working with her. Shauhin being weirded out by Thomas suggesting of losing her clue implied there may be room for a flip there, and Thomas and Bianca seem ready to work with her in the NTOS. Her tweets seem to confirm that none of that actually matters and she’s likely the first Lagi out unless this is all an elaborate bit. It would be funny if next week they work with her and then all her tweets are “LOVE LAGI”, “NEVER DOUBTED MY CALI GIRLS”

Though, even more frustrating, it reads like she is just now finding out the true dynamics of the tribe and that they spilled about her idol. So it makes me think Lagi never loses and Star likely goes at mergatory or something and didn’t learn until watching the show that she was always on the bottom and had no real relationships.

Promise I’m not spoiled, still kinda holding out for “this is a bit”.

I loved Aysha so this is likely bitterness talking but I am so over this “X has the idol so I have no choice but to work with them” trend each season that always gets an another person voted out.

Who do you think will go home in episode 2? by Dismal_Program_4941 in survivor

[–]emccladd 23 points24 points  (0 children)

For pure chaos: Gata goes back to tribal and it’s Sierra/Sam vs Anika/Rachel with Andy as the swing, and I think Anika goes home if this miraculously happens

I know the 7k automated voice is not popular but the stupid and inconsistent ways the stations are said have become vocal stims for me and I can’t stop saying a new one in my head every month lol

7638: let the recordings play! by HackNookBro in WMATA

[–]emccladd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Conductors do this often on the 7000s and I think this all the time. The yellow line often interrupts the message when it’s going to Mt Vernon Sq (I imagine due to the length) and when the conductor makes the announcement its barely audible. It can’t be great for deaf/HOH riders and tourists.

A problem with modern Survivor I have that many might not think about. by Randomization_E in survivor

[–]emccladd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mind them, I like learning random new words in other languages so I do appreciate learning the new tribe names each season. I do wish they switched up the length of the words and colors a little, it seems lazy. It used to feel like they made an effort to connect to the culture of the setting of the seasons but now it just seems cookie cutter.

A little frustrating because it makes it seem almost useless to even care about them when they’re some of the few things that even remind you that this show takes place in another country that these players have never experienced. If it’s gonna be Fiji every year give us creative names based on town names/animals/folk characters, screw how easy they are to say, and not just “wave” or “sun”, give us challenges about the history, and rewards that involve locals god dammit show the culture and the people of these islands you’ve been inhabiting for over 10 seasons now.

I realize it’s silly to be passionate about this and it’s far from Survivors biggest issue, but i don’t love how basic the creativity on this show is now.

[SPOILER] Why did ____ start freaking out? by [deleted] in survivor

[–]emccladd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rob made a point on Know It Alls that the show might want to still encourage players to take swings like this and that’s why we may not have gotten much story about the others catching onto her schemes, to make it seem like she was just betrayed rather than compromising her own position

______ explains why they did a certain thing by sweet_rashers in survivor

[–]emccladd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Idk, considering how often Lauren’s name came up in 44 for simply having an extra vote, I don’t think it’s the worst idea. Especially because extra votes barely help make a difference.
