I was really disappointed watching this but it isn’t wrong to say Dee deserved it. I think I just wanted it to be a bit more aggressive and scheming. My frame of reference may be a bit skewed because my wife and I spent most of 2021 watching all the season 40 contestants winner seasons (+a couple extra) for the ultimate experience, and so I obviously got huge doses of masterful gameplay and watching the game evolve in front of my eyes that it’s tough for a standard season to compare now.

Dee’s gameplay was just as ‘masterful’. Why make ‘moves’ when you don’t need them to win?

Yeah we've seen it a lot where people feel the need to make moves when they're already in a good spot and it completely ruins their game

They need to "make a move" to impress the Jury even though that is obviously not true

Honestly, I think Dee genuinely deserved it for her social game. She kicked Austin's poo poo in strategically by holding back the truth, got his one solid man eliminated, and he forgave her for it. Being able to betray someone you're willing to call your significant other on live television, only to be forgiven because you are genuinely a kind person, is great TV and something you only really see on survivor I think! Edit: did anyone else notice this season's editing putting a big emphasis on just how hard it is to lie to someone that you like personally? That's a nice overall arc to go for and I think they pulled it off. CJacobs fucked around with this message at 05:44 on Dec 22, 2023 |

I’m not saying Dee’s wasn’t and that should’ve made a move, or that she didn’t play a good game, I’m saying her competition was not good and entertaining. By ‘it’ I meant the season I’m not sure how Austin still rolled with Dee after the Drew blindside, when he had basically 3 easy goats and a decent chance at winning final 4 immunity. Maybe he wanted a shield? And then of course Jake and Katurah continuing to fumble.

What 3 easy goats? People kept talking about how much they loved Julie. I’m not sure Jake and Katurah were necessarily goats either until after F5. Katurah was getting praised as a speaker and Jake had a big sympathy angle. If they pulled that F5 move off and get rid of Dee they look a lot better and Austin looks a lot weaker. Also season was great, lots of big characters and interactions. If you want chess pieces playing against each other you can watch Game Changers or something, it’s more fun when there’s some emotional fumbles.

What was the deal with the weird whispering to Katurah twice about how she could be a lawyer Like, she was hiding that she wasn't a lawyer but was she pretending to want to be one? Wtf Season was good except for some really bad players doing stupid poo poo and telling everyone about their advantages but that's modern survivor so

Katurah talked about the stuff she did for a living without saying she was a lawyer (she worked for a lot of civil rights). So both Jake and Julie told her she should go be a lawyer. She mentioned this in her exit press.

I’m not sure in what world Jake and Katurah weren’t obvious goats. And for Julie, everyone loved Jake and it didn’t quite pan out for him. Julie also had to get bailed out by Dee, which isn’t a great look at FT. My belief is that newer era survivor is made up of survivor nuts, who first and foremost love the competitive aspect of the game. The primary way to get a Jury member’s vote at the end is that they need to be convinced that your were a better Survivor player than them. Not that you had a better story, or were nicer, or were likeable, but that they could competitively respect the game you played.l and that “you got me this time” Therefore I think you almost always win more points by being clever and ruthless, because that’s what everyone wants to do. And really just don’t be an rear end in a top hat. It felt like many of the later players didn’t quite grasp this or at least fumbled at realizing how dominant of a game the Reba 4 were playing, and even within the Reba 4 it seemed only Drew kinda knew what the outcomes would look like. I suppose there is a method in playing consistent and hoping that a split goes your way (Austin was only off by one vote+Jake), but it leaves some excitement on the table, especially when the other players around were dead in the water.

CODChimera posted:i'm curious as to why they're shying away from having more returnee seasons It took until season 8 to have the All Stars season. So if they were fully committed to restarting everything after season 40, it would make sense that we wouldn't have an all stars season until 48. Can't really find anything that confirms that 48 is an all new player season, although I haven't looked to hard. The real question is why they are focused on keeping every 40s season formulated where the twists are not even a surprise to the cast, because it's the same twists and the same time in the game.

Really good tribal. Austin and Dee going at each other harder than three people who were barely connected to each other in most of the previous "new" survivors was a fun twist; Austin did really good, Dee did a little better, hell Jake was practically telling everyone to vote for her at the end. Fun season even it wasn't good from a ~gameplay~ perspective, but that's not the total reason I watch the show so it's fine. I remember thinking, Dee and Reba's move to get out Caleb was really over confident; I thought it would cement Emily with Belo and they'd cut the head off the alliance and we'd go into the modern mode of micro alliances and such. It didn't work, we pretty much had slight twist on the classic Pagonging (although worse because Pagong didn't actively blow their own games up so hard). Dee was right and I was wrong and she really had great control of the whole thing. She was easily the deserving winner. E: and I think it's really interesting that in a game where so many of the confessions were people saying that the way they were going to win was "find an idol and do something flashy for the jury" that Dee just won it through good alliances and well-timed votes.

My votes for anyone wanting to dip into older seasons (without watching anything that’ll spoil the big returnee seasons) S7 Pearl islands S13 Cook Islands S15 China S18 Tocantins S37 David v Goliath And the players might reference past seasons/winners in this, I can’t remember, but s33 Millennials v GenX is a good intro one too S28 Cagayan is an excellent season as well but very annoyingly spoils the winner of s16 Micronesia (fans v favorites) which is a returnee season i think is top tier and thus a big bummer to spoil.

curiousCat posted:40 is a capstone kind of season. It's everything after that that's "new era". i've honestly kind of liked it so far, each season has been a fun ride and we've gotten a lot of different types of winners over these last five seasons. i actually prefer the three starting tribes since it has pretty much mitigated dominant pagongings in a traditional sense and all final threes thus far have been people from multiple tribes.

Yeah with season 10 at least there was some novelty in seeing a tribe just get so decimated like that. Like watching a tragic car crash in slow motion.

We just finished a season with one of the most traditional Pagongings in quite a long time. The three tribes didn't matter when one tribe was completely weak, and another tribe was so dominant, and the third tribe was eager to vote each other off that the dominant tribe was able to coast to the end.

Season 7 is supposedly coming to Netflix in January, so get ready for a whole new wave of social media reactions to you know, that moment. Although in my experience that moment is so famous that some people who had never seen Survivor before knew that something like that had happened before on reality TV, so they saw it coming.
