One of the more intriguing Fall TV Showdowns at the moment appears to be Wednesday nights at 8:00 p.m. Eastern, and there’s really one simple reason for it: Almost everything on the schedule is changing in a rather big way. When you look at the lineup, The Blacklist, Survivor, Empire, and Riverdale are all airing against each other for […]
Where should Survivor: Game Changers winner Sarah Lacina stand in the official CarterMatt Winner Rankings? It’s not something that was worth discussing right away following the finale — there’s some recency mixed in there, and you don’t want to give her a higher spot on the list just for the sake of doing so. Yet, […]
Tai Trang now has two seasons of Survivor under his belt, and his success rate is certainly high. He was in the final Tribal Council his first time, and last night on the Game Changers finale he was able to make it all the way to the final four before getting voted out. We also […]

Sarah Lacina may go down as one of the greatest Survivor winners ever after her Game Changers performance, and with good reason: She found a way to make every person feel like they were good with her, both before and after she made huge moves that stabbed apparent allies in the back. She was aggressive […]
Troy “Troyzan” Robertson is a guy who very much wanted to come back and play Survivor again after his first time out on Survivor: One World, and he was able to make that dream a reality on this Game Changers season. It’s also easy to say he did a good job. He didn’t make the […]
