This season of Aus survivor seems like its going to end up a fairly boring premerge, but if we get a merge with Editing not as bad as a normal Aus survivor season but still heavily lopsided. I think Ive narrowed my biggest frustration to the way the editors show alliances. They only show one or two peoples perspectives despite there being a broader alliance.

Yeah, there have been NUMEROUS times in Survivor AU that we only get one or two perspectives on an alliance again and again and again. They decide on the main characters and shove everyone else to the side. It makes for a really frustrating watch if you're like me, and it's worsened by the blatant confessional splicing and redundancies. They also don't allocate their additional airtime very effectively, hardly giving us any "camp life" scenes.

Oh right, I keep forgetting that's on. I haven't watched it yet. I'll probably watch it but I just hope there are some actual characters this season. 34/36 contestants from seasons 1-3 were clearly cast to be competitors first, TV characters second (Michelle and Freight Train being the exceptions) and even though some characters have emerged from the crowd, it's led to seasons 2 and 3 being pretty boring. --- darkx Twitch - MattyDsCorner Games beaten in 2023 - 2; Most recent - Pokemon Legends: Arceus ...

What are some of the truly jaw-dropping moments in Survivor history? Here are some that come to mind for me. Michael Skupin falling into the fire The Rupert blindside (to a person watching Pearl Islands for the first time today it may seem like a standard blindside but this season aired when Survivor was still a huge cultural phenomenon and literally 100% of America was rooting for him to win; we were just as stunned as he was) Sue Hawk speaking out in All-Stars Dreamz reneging on his deal with Yau-Man David proposing to Carolina at the reunion (I STILL cringe whenever I hear either of their names) The Brandon Hantz meltdown The aftermath of the episode 4 reward challenge in Kaoh Rong Varner outing Zeke Take your pick from the Dan situation --- darkx Twitch - MattyDsCorner Games beaten in 2023 - 2; Most recent - Pokemon Legends: Arceus ...

I'll give you that Game Changers tribal (which I considered listing but figured it was far overshadowed by what I included from the same season... also what went down is practically standard now but it was the first of its kind) and Erik's giving away immunity (which legit slipped my mind, probably because, as you said, the show has beaten it to death over the past 15 years) but the rest of those are nowhere near the things I listed. --- darkx Twitch - MattyDsCorner Games beaten in 2023 - 2; Most recent - Pokemon Legends: Arceus ...

Man I really wanted to keep going but I was VERY busy in December and January and at the point in the list where I was mostly apathetic to everyone. I considered resuming it this month but I may as well just post my full list. I'll do it later tonight, but I'll tell you now that it's amazing just how similar and also how different our lists are. I'll just go ahead and say though, Taylor is my #1, and it was never in question and it was never close. Never have I ever loved and rooted for a contestant on any show so much from the very beginning and only loved and rooted for them more and more as the season went on and have never been happier to see someone win. --- darkx Twitch - MattyDsCorner Games beaten in 2023 - 2; Most recent - Pokemon Legends: Arceus ...

Maryanne and Taylor winning together (honestly, alongside Kim & Penn, Lia, and Danny for Challenge USA because fuck Sarah getting a bigger monetary win despite finishing in a DISTANT second place)...2022's seasons on this list were just so much stronger than the 2021 half. Ultimately, I think what gave Maryanne the edge for me was that, in addition to being unexpected and much needed (how many nerdy guy superfans had to win before we FINALLY got a nerdy superfan woman to win), I just appreciated her as an individual character. Taylor was a genuinely nice person, but I feel like a lot of my enjoyment of her was more due to her underdog status in the season, rather than her personality as an individual. That made the difference between first and second place on the list for me. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier. Inviso ... Copied to Clipboard!

MartinFF7 posted... but Sydney was also hilarious in her delivery, like terrific comic timing and natural camera presence, and I don't recall the same vibes from Tori.Yeah, I don't see the comparison between Sydney and Tori at all. Sydney is the physical embodiment of vanity, but is fully aware of that. Tori feels like a small town girl next door who was the most popular kid in school against her wishes, and thus struggled in an environment where she didn't get that acceptance. Tori would NEVER dismiss other people with "they hate me 'cuz they ain't me" except for MAYBE the racist piece of shit on her tribe. Both were fantastic characters nonetheless and I anticipate that if there's a returnee season in a couple years that we'll be seeing one or both of them again. Though good luck topping Sydney's profile picture.

Reading the list, I think you're too harsh on Mike for his idol play. Carolyn and Sierra also voted Tyler, so Mike's vote was meaningless. All voting Tyler there did was make Mike look like he was in the loop as opposed to throwing a useless vote on Dan or something. --- ""Love" is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope."

Catching up on Tough as Nails. Currently on episode 3. Jake is the whiniest person they've had on this show so far. --- darkx Twitch - MattyDsCorner Games beaten in 2023 - 2; Most recent - Pokemon Legends: Arceus ... Copied to Clipboard!

Overall, I would say TAN4 was a solid season of the show. It's weird, because I feel like I SHOULD hate it more than I do, but I just felt so invested in the story all season long.

Okay, finished with Season 4. I think my ranking is 1 > 4 > 3 > 2. I mostly agree with your assessments but honestly having Danny in season 1 is like having Justin in TAR27. An obnoxiously cocky know-it-all to root against because you just know they they're going to get second. I mean it, from episode 1 I was totally sure Danny would get 2nd and the way he got overtaken by Murph in the final stretch of the final challenge was a fantastic ending. 4 was definitely the closest and most exciting season from start-to-finish. The cast was not as dislikable as the season 2 cast, and not as apathy-inducing as the season 3 cast, but not as memorable as the season 1 cast. Renee was a bit of a dud for someone who was clearly cast to be a "character" in the same vein as Michelle and Freight Train. I do think the fact that it came down to the four young men at the end highlights the fundamental issue with the show (further highlighted by the fact that across four seasons, only 2 out of 12 finalists are female) which is that the challenges are mostly tailored to the skillsets of young, fit men. And it's like, you can't be mad at them for excelling at something they're good at, and I don't really know how they could fix it and stay in the spirit of the show other than casting bodybuilder women. And yet, season 3 not only had a female winner but an older female winner at that so it CAN be done, it just isn't happening with any sort of regularity. 3 is mostly kind of forgettable but has a good "main" story with some good sub-plots, a likeable final five with a couple of likable early boots and nobody to hate, and just kind of a more pleasant feel to it than the other three. 2 is dreadful. Too many people who are either obnoxious assholes, gigantic hypocrites, or just downright mean-spirited, and most of the aforementioned went far into the individual competition. As you stated, the fact that Zeus is the easiest to root for in the final four says a LOT. Also had two medivacs and an ejection so it was just a disaster production-wise too. --- darkx Twitch - MattyDsCorner Games beaten in 2023 - 2; Most recent - Pokemon Legends: Arceus ...
