11/3 - Survivor 41 Show Discussion

Me too. It just seems so wrong. Unfair, and stupid.

This was supposed to be a shorter, but more "fun" season, according to Jeff. Instead, they ticked off a whole bunch of fans. I see many people quitting watching. 

I agree. I am just not into this season even though I have watched every season.

At least she realized she was in danger and took the chance and smashed that hourglass.

Bloody hell Ricard wins immunity.

They will probably vote out Nasser.

I wonder how Evvie knows she's on the outs? Maybe I missed something, but when she was sitting on the rocks talking to the camera, I was surprised she was crying about being at risk.

In one hour episodes, with challenges and millions of idols, advantages, recaps, etc., it's too hard to fit everything in and there doesn't seem to be as many well-developed stories. I'm just not as invested in any of the players. At least with Erika last time, we got to see some of her "home story."

I feel the same way .

Here we go again, where everyone talks strategy in front of everyone .

I hate this getting up in groups and whispering going on during tribal. I think that should not be allowed. Have them sitting and talking so everyone can hear...particularly the audience.

I do like Xander. I knew he was smarter than he leads on.

I really have no clue what is going on.

Sydney was voted out

They tried every trick in the book, so much maneuvering that it made our heads spin, and yet Syd was voted out. Are we supposed to care?

No . 

I'd care more about who was voted off, and maybe even root for some of these people, if we got to know them more. More than just who's got which advantage, who's going to betray whom, who's voting for whom, etc.

I know who I DON'T like, and don't root for (Shan!), but I have no feelings towards Evvie or Syd on whether I'd want them to stay or go. Big SHRUG. That's where this season is leaving me cold.

I didn't necessarily love the hourglass smash do-over but at least the people that competed had been fed. However, I did like watching Liana's smug look fall. Xander saying "no, but you can have this fake one" was hilarious!

I don't even know why Liana thought he would be so open about having it since she knew he knew about her advantage. Xander was smart to give both things to Tiffany since he had been open about using the HII on Evvie. One of the funniest parts is that it's all Shan's fault anyone even knew about Liana's advantage to work around it.

I agree with most people / comments.

Like the football player the whole take away something you earned is lame. And I dislike when there are A LOT of people left and so many of them have safety. If you are going to have a reset, I think it should have reset to everyone competes for II. Then at least the 6 won a feast AND they aren't being punished by having to increase their risk of being voted out (by having so many have safety). But you basically made winning worse than losing. You can make it less good for not worse. IMO.

That said I don't care that Syd went home and did like the smart play of the X/Ev/Tiff group. Liana knows Evie is very smart so she is dumb for thinking Evie didn't think all this through. And I would way rather have Syd go than Evie. At least Evie is playing well so I hope she goes far for that reason alone and I am rooting for her (not over Nasser or anything but over some of these lamer players).

And I am more or less enjoying this season.I don't love a lot of it and I highly doubt its going to get a high ranking in favorite Survivor seasons but I am not close to giving up on this season yet.
