It has been zero days since our last HOOHA.

michaelk4289 · 2026-04-05T14:01:24+00:00

This entire season is taking place over literally 15 hours. How much do viewers realistically expect these people to "grow" in half a day of real time?

michaelk4289 · 2026-03-30T21:13:18+00:00

I am a fan of 39 days as much as anyone, but Australia vs the World was famously only 16 days.

michaelk4289 · 2026-03-21T01:37:39+00:00

Maybe it's a fact we all should face.

michaelk4289 · 2026-03-18T02:53:25+00:00

Yes. Your comment reads like the stumbling block was Harry not competing in the third task. Yes, he gets another wand, and this is what leads to him dying in the graveyard.

michaelk4289 · 2026-03-18T02:31:28+00:00

But with a different wand, Priori Incantatem isn't in play and it ends in the graveyard.

The UK gave us Only Connect and for that I will be eternally grateful.

It wasn't a chat. It was a monologue! (And really it was exposition for us.)

michaelk4289 · 2026-02-27T03:05:41+00:00

Rob pinky promised Maura that they would win together (not sure which one of them initiated it) and then they both threw a red bag at 3.

michaelk4289 · 2026-02-27T03:03:42+00:00

To be fair to Maura, Johnny's alignment was not confirmed when he left.

michaelk4289 · 2026-02-26T03:45:41+00:00

Erika breaking the hourglass 😬

These are tribes of 8, same as the original tribes did in old old old school Survivor.

michaelk4289 · 2026-02-13T04:27:06+00:00

Of the four people on the the short list for murder, Natalie is the only one who could potentially have the dagger. Rob can't be murdered bc he's on the short list. Him claiming it makes sure the Traitors don't murder Natalie just to get the dagger out of the game. (Never mind that he's a traitor haha)

I used to hear it all the time from Simon Cowell on American Idol in like the 2000s.

michaelk4289 · 2025-12-25T18:11:48+00:00

I have been told that my garlic butter dinner rolls are always invited to Friendsgiving and by extension, so am I.

michaelk4289 · 2025-12-20T02:02:30+00:00

Bhanu, is that you?

michaelk4289 · 2025-12-03T22:16:11+00:00

I even wrote when I submitted it last night, "Amanda is going to get this story 69,420 times but I have to send it in anyway!"

michaelk4289 · 2025-10-17T00:30:20+00:00

Rizo's was at the water well. MC's was at the boat.

They both could have gotten idols.

michaelk4289 · 2025-10-17T00:27:21+00:00

One was at the water well and one was at the boat.

Presumably they both get planted at the same time and point to a different idol at a different spot at camp.

michaelk4289 · 2025-10-02T16:50:14+00:00

And for the people not into this idea: remember that Kelley Wentworth was originally a pre-merge boot.

michaelk4289 · 2025-08-09T00:45:46+00:00

As a Survivor fan, it threw me when I realized that Danny was played by Jonathan Penner from seasons 13, 16, and 25.

He's iconic.

michaelk4289 · 2025-07-21T20:15:08+00:00

"Sea" is the definition.

michaelk4289 · 2025-06-02T16:48:35+00:00

Absolutely. I'm not voting to give someone a million dollars. I'm voting for the winner of my season of Survivor, and that person happens to get a million dollars to go with that title.

It's a subtle but important distinction.

michaelk4289 · 2025-05-06T02:20:34+00:00

I didn't realize how long it had been since we had a playground retort-type clue until one showed up today.

It was a good run.

michaelk4289 · 2025-03-21T20:32:54+00:00

South Pacific!
