Survivor: Generic Thread (No Spoilers)

As ill-recieved as Redeption Island concept is recieved, I think the format works best in only a BvW fomat.

I agree. I don't know why they didn't do it again for San Juan del Sur.

I agree but also it needs to end at the merge. After the merge it's a bullshit concept.

So does Jeff actually make the calls for casting? I know he's an exec.

Did they really need to though?

I like Exile Island though lol.

Redemption Island > Exile Island. I prefer eliminations to vote offs and with the BvW theme it worked really well. 

****, I swear your Survivor opinions are trash.

I like Exile Island though lol.

I like it too but only when they are actually isolated and 'surviving'. This season debbie was on a frigin boat eating everything. I just preferred BvW's redemption island to BvW2's exile.

I see you're point and I agree. Like Redemption Island Ozzy went in to knock out the possibility of Christine coming back and givng the other tribe the numbers advantage, worked out welll. Only time that format worked well within the strategy. After the merge, it'd just be like "shit, he'sgoing to comeback..."

This season had some super good casting choices then some questionable ones. I think they definetly got the "Game Changer" aspect right with Tony, Malcom, JT, Sandra, Ozzy, Sierra(my unpopular opinion), Andrea, and the remaining 6 people. 

Michaela, Zeke, and Debbie could be classified as Game Changers now after they're voted out. Although their first showing didnt stand out much to be a Game Changer.

Everyone else is just tragic. I dont know what they tried with getting Caleb and Cierra back but it was a failure. Jesus, just because Ciera voted out her mom doesnt make her shit lol. That choice barely changed shit because Ciera got tossed out next Tribal.

And all the likeable people that I would have rooted for gotted voted out super early. I was left with Andrea, Troy, Michaela, and Cirie post merge. Tragic boot list IMO. I would've gotten Tai's *** out Day 3.

I feel like they called it game changers due to a lack of an actual theme. They wanted this cast but couldnt find any other theme to go with it. All-stars would have been just as wrong and it couldnt be 2nd chances because of Sandra, Tony and JT, who werent gonna be dropped. And they always gotta have a theme for some reason.

Its easier to pitch and advertise.

Good point.

The bullshit excuse they use about some of them not being game changers, but they were willing to change the game. Like stop insulting our intelligence Probst. 

I agree with whoever said they probably had another idea in mind but due to cast drops and not getting who they wanted they just said eh **** it and called it game changers because they needed a theme.

That being said, they should've NEVER cast Cirie, Tony, Sandra, JT, Ozzy with this particular group of people.

Tbh most of the cast seems like a "Redemption/Second Chances/Showed Potential" type:

Michaela, Culpepper, Troyzan, Aubry, Tai, Sarah etc.

Idk what they were going for with Sierra though lol. 

They should stop having returnee seasons where they cast a bunch of scrubs and only a handful of legends/big names. Either go all scrubs or go all legends.

they could have at least cast shane powers and t-bird if they were gonna go for second chances rejects here

I think i read somewhere that 'game changers' always was a theme for S34

Stephanie V. Also

Teresa DESERVES a second chance. Robbed Goddess.
