Survivor 42 - Episode Discussion

Where was it that Danny chewed Jeff up? I want to see that haha

I think it was mentioned in multiple exit interviews.

 

Yeah what a great premiere. 

They didn't need ANY of these twists with how strong casting was. I'll keep watching till Jeff screws up with the twists and hour glass stuff 

Agreed. I think if Jeff's dumb twist didn't ruin this it could be one of the best casts/seasons in a very long time. I think we'll be safe from the hour glass twist because King Danny apparently ate Jeff up about that to the point where Jeff apologized lol. 

there was a pre show preview where Jeff highlighted the theme of this season and I definitely saw an hour glass. It is what it is hopefully it's just better used this season 

I kind of like the amulet twist, just not a fan of the phrases I get it that these contestants don't know about them but any future contestants will know what it is when someone says in the future. 

Personally i don't like advantages that only help you weeks in advance tbh. They have no way of getting the opposing team members voted out 

I think this is a really, strong & diverse cast and I am so here for that. I don't really agree with how the Jackson scenario was dealt with - why not get him on next season & use an alternate - would that have a been possible?

Favourite stand out has to be Maryanne, she is so loveable. The crying hysterically had me howling. She's pure gold.

Hauser, I have to disagree with you on this one though, I like what I've seen from Tori on this one. Really like Drea too and so far Mike seems likeable, Jenny too. Haven't seen much from the other cast yet but welp, the person who I thought might win this season for first boot (well bar Jackson).

Hate this stupid twist with the saying lame shit that started last season, sounds like a 5 year old came up with it.

Great cast this season though, liking it a lot so far. I just hope they don't ruin it with lame twists.

I like Jenny and Swati so far in particular. I hope they make it far. 

Also Tori - despite her trying to gaslight the audience saying she wasn't looking for the idols 

Tori is amazing casting, Angelina 2.0 

definitely challenge material 

I don't think the challenge would cast her cause of her anti vax posts

So they knew that they were going to remove Jackson before the game but let him play for 24 hours so that Jeff could have his wannabe Oprah talk show moment? He kills this show, I wish he'd go back to being a single misogynistic ******* again.   

fr like I felt so bad for him. And did they not have an alternate they could have put in in the first place

Finally watched the first episode--definitely has more potential than S41.  I don't think it was the best episode but had a good flow at least.  Hoping Drea, Tori, Jenny and Maryanne do well.  Were any of the guys likeable?   

They had to have alts with it being covid times. I think that just wanted to exploit the story and for Jeff to have Dr. Phil moment. Plus it helped with their shorter filming schedule.

I honestly didn't feel bad for him at all.  He intentionally withheld information.  Production should have never let him on.   They just wanted the story.

would they bring in an alt 3 days in? they didn't bring an alt for pat on david vs goliath 

We are talking pregame. They knew they were going to remove him day 2. It was premeditated by production for the moment.

true and they probably just wanted to show that they had representation

I don't think the challenge would cast her cause of her anti vax posts

so howd she get on survivor? i would think everyone has to be vaccinated to play 

even with jackson being kinda scummy to the alternate, i still enjoyed his story.  

another just phenomenal season casting wise
