Thoughts on Next Season

Forgive me in advance for my rambling in this blog post.

Survivor: Philippians. Somehow, I knew they would be here someday. I really do hope that they use Redemption Island again this season. All we know is that it has already been filmed. So here is pure speculation as to what will happen. First the facts: There will be three tribes. All of them will be lead by a person who was medically evacuated from the game. So that means that there are three returning contestants. Now the speculation: They failed to state the number of new contestants in the game. There could be 18 new contestants meaning a total of 21 contestants with seven on each tribe. How will they do the merge? Will there be one before they are one tribe? I do hope that they ask Fabio and Chase to compete again in a future season. In Survivor: Nicaragua, they were in the final three. Fabio won by one vote and the two people who quit the game that were in the jury both voted for Fabio. So I hope that they will return again. Or, they should ask for any of the players from Survivor: Palau to come back as they have one contestant who can never come back because she is now dead. But, they can't accept my ideas anyways. One wonders how the three tribes will work this season. But stay tuned for my next post to see how might be back for the next season. Hopefully, they'll keep them as long as possible instead of getting rid of them by the fourth episode or sooner like they have in previous seasons. I doubt that they will have eight members in the three tribes. But more speculation will come in the next article.

Thoughts on One World Season Finale

I do so honestly owe all of the contestants an apology. Although I do like Colton's quote, "I am a Republican, I do not believe in handouts." Maybe he should be a Democrat, because he sure needed the health care. I am a Democrat because they care more about what works for individuals. But, if you want a political blog, let me know about that later. This is about Survivor. I am glad that Kim won. She even had an immunity idol that she never even used because no one would consider voting for her. In fact, the only people who did were giving her the million dollars. I don't know how that happened, but it was good. I wish that I could be like Kim, where people don't even realize how they don't like me or, better yet, they actually do like me. I did miss a lot of the finale, but I saw what was important. I hope that Kat makes smarter choices in the future, but I am sorry now that she left the game. They never got to interview Kourtney, the person who left the game first, before a real tribal council. I hope that she will be back. All we know that the next season will be very interesting. One last piece of information that seemed important during the final tribal council is that people criticized Alicia for calling Christina one of her special needs children when this world would be better off if everyone was in special education. That way, we can finally get our individual needs met instead of our generalized education that we get nowadays. Stay tuned for my thoughts on the next season.

Kat Gone

Sorry that I haven't been able to post in a while with the blogger change of format and things going on in my personal life like two big college projects. So a lot has happened since I last posted. In the most recent episode, Kat went home. I wasn't too fond of her. Come to think of it, I don't like anyone in the game right now. But she proved one of the worst players of the season and I don't think she should have lasted as far as she did. Now like Survivor: Vanuatu, there is only one guy left in the game with the many women. Only, unlike that season, Tarzan probably won't win and he doesn't deserve to win either. How he outlasted all the men in Colton's fault for picking off his own tribes members. But I will continue watching until the finale. I don't like any of the players. They sort of remind me of those Republicans who were running for president this year and the Democrats running for president in 2004. One of them will win, but no one wants them to. These are, quite possibly, the worst people to have ever played the game of Survivor in the same season. But even though I don't like Colton, at least he had something going for him before his untimely departure. Nevertheless, we have to see if they'll get rid of Tarzan soon or they'll keep him to get more votes for themselves.

One Tribe, One Mess

They voted out Jonas. It doesn't make much sense. If the guys get picked off one by one now, this is why. Leif was the only other person to vote off Tarzan. I'm unsure if Tarzan or Colton is more annoying so I'll call it a tie. You have to wonder how much changes in the plans for a season then what ends up happening in the game. The reward challenge was meant to be for the two tribes before they were suddenly merged. Was that the immunity challenge that would have happened or just the reward challenge that was supposed to happen with two different tribes? I'm glad that a second immunity idol is back in the game even if Colton kept one as a keepsake. Kat might end up winning the game since her uselessness is only bad in the two tribe part of the game. Well, maybe she won't win, but she might be in the finals so someone else can win. I do wonder how she made it this far. Nethertheless, I except the women to dominate the game until the merge unless another stupid move is made and I hope that Tarzan doesn't make it too far, although he wouldn't win the game.

End to a Villian

So Colton has now become Survivor's first villian to be medically evacuated. The last episode featured his departure from the game due to appendicites. It seems a fitting end. This could have some people believing in karma now. Since he took the idol with him as he left the game, I'm not sure that they'll replace it. Another twist that happened a week ago was that both tribes went to tribal council without an immunity challenge (a first if you don't count the double tribals) were no one was voted off, the tribes instead merged. I have no idea what will happen next but I'm at least glad that Colton got what was coming to him, even if it wasn't a huge blindslide. Nevertheless, we will probably see him in a future season. Maybe and Colton versus Russell as to who is more devious. That would be good if you don't mind the fact that bring back two all stars in a season gives them a big advantage over the other new players. Colton is gone so a new villian might emerge but I still don't know if Survivor ever had a better villian. He might have made it to the end if he could have. That's not to say that I liked Colton, just that he was a good player. And now we'll see what happens next. I don't have a favorite to win, but I will enjoy the rest of what is the most interesting Survivor season to date.

First Blog Post

I finally decided to start a Survivor blog. The season that is currently on right now is One World, their 24th season. It has already had more new things happen that have never happened before. Russell is no longer the evilest player. That now goes to Colton. JT is no longer the stupidest player. That goes to the entire tribe of men who gave up tribal immunity just to get rid of someone. The most shocking moves have changed. I wonder how these moves will be topped (if that is even possible).

Firsts this season: First woman evacuated from the game. The first person voted out was the second to leave the game. The tribes living at one beach was new. The first time an immunity challenge was cancelled before its completion. The first time an entire tribe was disqualified from a challenge. The first do it yourself challenge (I thought that there were supposed to be more than one this season, so we'll see if that happens again).

Expect better updates in the future when a new episode airs.
