you'd think Jeff and crew would've thought that beforehand and brought them in for this!  And did we ever get the family member visit this season??  This would be a great time to introduce them or something :unsure: 

They got letters/videos from home on one of the rewards but it didn’t make the final edit.

 

They likely wouldn’t have been able to actually fly anyone out for in-person stuff because of the restrictions they had. The show was pretty much the only “tourists” allowed in Fiji at that point.

aww, that's too bad :(  I would've liked to see more of that reward.  I do know that it would've been that much more shocking to the contestants to actually see them in person though :haha:

Honestly I liked this season overall! I'm still struggling with the fact that this is a COMPLETELY different show from the Survivor I've once loved. At this point they can't be more open about how the fact that this show has "evolved". The Survivor I loved is over and I can't keep fighting it if I want to enjoy this new Survivor. I think this was an above average season of NuSurvivor. More seasons will air, I'm sure some of them will be plenty worse, and I think a lot of us will look back on this one fondly.

Other than episode… 3? (that horrendous Brad boot episode), I feel the same. Maybe it was partially hype from having so long between seasons, but as far as modern Survivor goes, I dig it. I’m glad the advantages, though plentiful, didn’t seem to overrun the game like they did in the mid/late 30s era.

this 100%.

 

a C season if i'm looking at it as if i were watching in 2010, but a high B to low A if i accept it as this dumb "new era" sh*t they're pushing. i wish the "new era" stuff wasn't so meta but i can't have everything :dead:  this season produced some amazing moments (i think my personal highlight is liana's speech before she got voted out) and 5 of my favorite players x characters ever (shan, erika, liana, tiff, ricard).

 

also the 42 preview looks very promising! can definitely say i'm excited for spring

Did Jeff get more friendly or did he just actually adore this cast of survivors? I feel like he definitely showed a lot more love than usual

 

this cast was great though, I honestly was so moved by their stories and the fact that the cast was not bitter at all and showed so much growth was ridiculously heartwarming. I was so proud of all of them and how positive they ALL were in that final tribal. No one was bitter, a few disappointed people but everyone was so mature and it seemed like they were all good people which is rare of an ENTIRE group

 

love it! Now where’s the next Russell Hantz next season? :giggle:

Erika slaying the final few episodes. :wub:

 

I liked Xander throughout but his cockiness, him going power mad and his

loss thereafter has to be one of the most amazing downfalls of all time. And all in one final episode too! I went from rooting for him to actually wanting him to lose because of how cocky he became. That smirk he gave Heather and actually believing that he played the best game when he’s up against Erika was mind blowing. He played a fantastic social game but I fail to see what moves he made apart from creating a fake idol.

 

Heather is incredible. Never giving up and almost winning the fire making challenge. She did fantastic for an older woman and we don’t often see them make it deep in to the game anymore. Love her! :wub:

 

I still really like Deshawn and him overcoming the odds to place second. I like that he stood up to Shan when no one else would and that he wanted to play his own game. Throwing people under the bus and causing chaos. Those tribals would’ve been boring without him. I hope we see him again soon.

Got a few episodes to catch up on, mostly post-merge. Saw the winner though and was really pleasantly surprised (just as she didn't get as much content as I hoped from the episodes I'd seen at least)! Finally another female winner to join the club of Sole Survivors ❤️

So there was a reunion show too?! :shock:  wahhhh the global app had sh!t!

 

doing a rewatch to watch Erikas gameplay closely. Lmao @ Xander thinking he can beat Erika. :rofl:heather was right, should’ve listened to her. And Xander should’ve listened to his gut more often
