Anyone have a clue what this twist/advantage might be?

I'm tired of these cartoony logos, it was fun in Cagayan, but these past two have dropped the ball. They need to hire a quality graphic designer.

I just hope its a good thing unlike the special idol

I was initially surprised season 30 didn't involve returning players, but it does make sense to keep moving with these twists because they honestly are pretty interesting and gain more viewers.

This is kinda Cagayan 2, but it's Brains vs. Brawn vs. Hippies. I think Hippies bring more to the table than "Beauties" so, I'm hoping it can play out nicely haha. I really need to the casting to be good for this one, it's what made Cagayan so phenomenal, and San Juan del Sur so disappointing (at the beginning).

It isn't just hippies though. It's all-inclusive. Free spirits, unorthodox personalities and career choices. It's adventure. It's excitement. It's perfect.

No idea what issue you had with the San Juan del Sur cast at the beginning

So what do you guys think was the best season between SJDS and BvW. For me: 

San Juan del Sur >>>> Blood vs. Water

same it's not the best season but it's for sure better than some others

SJDS started off kind of slow, but it kept getting better and better, exponentially.

I was thinking of my top 5 female players from all the seasons I've watched, and I'm considering putting Natalie in my top 5 female players list.

Jeff has favorite people. He hypes a season based on who he likes. Leave him alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Idk BvW had Ciera Hayden Caleb Aras and Vytas and Tina and Laura M too. Both were very good seasons imo. How does Nat rank? Imo as winners she's somewhere from top 10-15. One of the better females for sure.

Also fun fact: every Natalie has made at least f4 with those being Micronesia (4th), Samoa (winner <3), Redemption Island (uber goat lol at getting less votes than PHILLIP), and of course SJDS.

Yeah redemption island Natalie just went in Boston robs pocket and took a nice nap the whole game. Andrea summed it up great by saying their relationship was borderline creepy.

How would you guys cast this upcoming season of Blue VS White VS No collar with past contestants?

You know. When they were getting ready to annouce the twist next season. I was hoping they would divide the teams by Sexual Orientation.

I imagine that's coming. Straight vs Gay & Lesbian vs ******** (I don't see them getting 5 transgender to make it four tribes without recruiting and/or coercion). They could do Straight vs LGBT, but Jeff stated that production favors 18 person, 3 tribe seasons as it prevents 5 or 6 person majority alliances from forming right off the bat. Plus, I think it would be interesting to watch straight players be in the minority.

I can't see this ever happening , I feel like people would hate that the tribes are separated by that just like they hated separation by race.

Yikes that twist sounds awful. I mean I'm all for more LGBT but why make that a division or anything? I'm cringing imaging the sterotypes.

If CBS cast with care, they could easily break the stereotypes. 

Survivor isn't above controversy. I'm not saying it's the best twist, nor the worst, but I can't imagine not being put on the table at least once.

I believe V1 said something about pitching Straight vs LGBT to MTV in the past.

Yeah. That's the one thing that makes me weary of it. I feel like CBS wouldn't even try to cast different people with the gay tribe. They would all be stereotypes.

It's not gonna happen, way to risky. I dont see how fans would even like this anymore than cook islands division by race.

Cook Islands was awful, but I don't think it was for the twist, it just the cast was very dull. I really didn't understand the problem with dividing them by the races, on the contrary, we got more diversity. But I agree that this twist is very risky, I don't trust CBS enough for them to do this.

The twist hurt the show, they lost a bunch of sponsors. I don't have a problem with the race idea either but people turned it into segregation and racism.

I didn't know they lost sponsors because of that. I feel like production handled the twist really well. I hate when people turn everything into racism.

I think this twist could be dangerous, because they would automatically minor their pool of casting people and Jeff Probst stated in one of his last interviews, they made one mistake with Blood vs. Water 2 that they first had the theme and then the people and not the other way around like always, but they won't do this mistake ever again. 

With how much I'm enjoying Survivor, I wish we had more discussion like the Challenge gets. Too bad there's not too many Survivor fans except for like 4 members.

One thing I love about survivor is that they post almost every challenge YouTube so I can watch them lol I do that a lot.

I have been watching a lot of the older seasons on youtube this past couple of months, I'm right now watching Borneo and All Stars and I'm really enjoying both. I want to see Nicaragua real bad, but it's nowhere to be found on youtube.
