Thanks in part to last week’s game-changing episode of “Survivor: Philippines,” one of our remaining castaways is in a unique situation on Wednesday night’s new episode: win immunity, or be the top target to go home. On this occasion, the guy we are specifically talking about here is Pete Yurkowski. The first question we have […]
Before we delve too deep into our “Survivor: Philippines”rankings for the week, we have to start things out with some praise. How good is this season? Very good; as a matter of fact, this may be the strongest season overall featuring some first-time players since the mad clusterf–k known as “Survivor: Gabon.” There are just […]

Considering that we picked Artis Silvester to win “Survivor: Philippines” before the start of the season, it’s pretty fair to say that we were rather sad to see the guy go on Wednesday night. After all, the guy had a tough time out there: despite coming across as very likable in the pre-show interviews, he […]

The only thing more entertaining than a game-changing move on “Survivor” is when it happens thanks partially in part to someone else being completely awful all of the time … and thus, we have what we can best refer to as comeuppance. Somehow, this season in the Philippines is living up to being the best […]
Is there an end date coming up to “Survivor”? If there is, we have not come anywhere close to it yet. The CBS show has been a strong force for several years on Thursdays and now Wednesdays, and the network has not shown any sign just yet that it will be ending. With that in […]
Even though “Survivor: Philippines” is not even finished airing yet, this has not stopped Jeff Probst from being asked about who he would love to see return to the game the most; which, as it turns out, is a pretty important question given that the guy is also more or less the man responsible for […]
In thinking back over last week’s new episode of “Survivor: Philippines,” there is really only one thing that we realized: Lisa Whelchel could light a match and burn down the camp, and we still don’t think this merged tribe would send her home. She’s got this total “nice lady” game down pat, and we’re not […]

Usually when you have a celebrity appear on “Survivor,” the general tendency is for them to be either stunt casting or an early boot. Just look at Jimmy Johnson, who really didn’t do much of anything en route to be the third person kicked off his season. However, Jeff Kent really did something different: while […]

What a crazy, brilliant game “Survivor: Philippines” is turning out to be. You have so many moving parts, no obvious six-person alliance taking people out one by one, and you really get the feeling here that there is exciting stuff around every turn. By far, this is the best post-merge game so far in years, […]
Sometimes on “Survivor,” there is ambiguity; and other times, there is a nail waiting to be slammed into somebody’s coffin. At this very moment, the window is closing for one Jonathan Penner, and he is going to have to pull off a miracle akin to Russell Hantz’s post-merge game in “Survivor: Samoa” (though hopefully with […]
