Next time on “Survivor” … Tony makes us very nervous. We say this from a place of love, since we very much enjoy all the entertainment he brings to the show, but there are limitations to this style of play. If people know you make big moves, it makes you a harder person to trust. […]
“Survivor: Cagayan” had a very difficult challenge topping last week’s insanity, and in the early going, it certainly looked like they found a way to make it happen. We may hate the “Tyler Perry idol” (named by the internet after he suggested the idea to Probst for an idol you play after the vote), but […]
Sometimes, there’s nowhere to go but up when it comes to our “Survivor” rankings. Last week, we admittedly put Sarah Lacina at the top of the list, thinking that there was no way that she’d fall into the swing vote trap and get herself in trouble. Instead, we felt like she almost had a four […]
You see, this is what happens when you hide a hidden immunity idol in the camp: All heck breaks loose. After all, this is not any ordinary “Survivor” immunity idol: This is an old-school one, similar to what Yul Kown used back in “Cook Islands” to win the game. Let’s start off by saying this: […]
We’ve probably never been so confident about a player not going home in a “Survivor” episode, only to see them voted out 45 minutes later, as we were with Sarah Lacina last night. Maybe we should have saw some of the signs coming, such as her being the swing vote and feeling very powerful in […]
Do you know what a great episode of “Survivor” is? It is when you finish still giddy like it was just Christmas morning, and you just at an entire chocolate Santa while playing video games. This was one of those rare episodes; this may go down as one of our favorite episodes in years, and […]
The merge episode of “Survivor” is one of our favorites every season, and more often than not, there is a good reason for it. This episode is always insane, and features so many people scrambling and desperate to figure out what move they want to make. This is what doomed Aras Baskauskas last season, and […]
Reading into episode titles is always a dangerous game, but when you look at the name for Wednesday’s “Survivor: Cagayan” episode, it does make you wonder whether there is a very big move coming: “Head of the Snake.” When you think about that, there are only a few select people you could be referring to. […]
Alexis Maxwell really wanted to do everything she could to be a good “Survivor” player. She constantly tried to strategize and convince people on her new Aparri tribe to work with her. Unfortunately, she fell victim to the same thing as many other players before her: Making her case a little too much. She was also the […]
How good is “Survivor: Cagayan” getting? While we are worried about the post-merge game becoming slightly all about one alliance starting to slowly pick off the other, the game so far has been as crazy and unpredictable as any season in recent memory. Having great new players plus no Redemption Island has made this entire […]
