Timster's Episode Rating - 4.5/5 stars
If you liked Stranded With $2 then this is the show for you. This show is going to get NASTY as we saw in the premiere the white folks are already playing dirty by cutting the dark skinned minorities off from resources. But the QUEEN will take them all out ONE BY ONE. Much better than The Challenge USA 2 premiere. The only downside is that you can only be eliminated by being the challenger not the challenged so it's going to be an uphill battle for the 5. I also think the prize SUCKS. I can't imagine less than 10 people making it to the final day so that's 10k a piece to split? Awful....

HEADBUTT NEXT EPISODE! I'M UP
Because y'all are gonna be annoying and ask what the show's about instead of watching.
At the start of the show they all are awarded ONE resource each. One person owns the entire water source, one person owns the entire firewood, one person owns the only machete, etc. It's up to the owner if others/which others they share their resource with or keep it to themselves. If you want to OWN someone else's resource you have to compete in a physical challenge to take their resource from them. If you lose you're eliminated. The resource owner that's challenged will not be eliminated if they lose the challenge, however they lose their resource in the process.
25 days of this. The only way to go home is to challenge someone & lose, or be med evaced, or quit. The last people standing at Day 25 split 100k. However if you're the sole survivor you take home 250k. 9 total episodes. Producers apparently loved the show and can't wait for future seasons.
Drama and split alliance 15 minutes into the show. People getting starved out, dehydrated out for not being in the "alliance"... this is gonna be a roller coaster ride and I will be raging and calling people racists along the way.
I'm also greatful for the 50% BIPOC thing CBS does because......
Also **** that first boot from survivor stephanie or whatever her name is and **** jonathan from ayto.
"The last people standing at Day 25 split 100k. However if you're the sole survivor you take home 250k. 9 total episodes."
What kind of nonsense is this?
250k is all? and it's not even gurranteed. Yikes
It is a bit wild Survivor started with a million $ prize off the bat in 2000 and now 23 years later shows think $100k is acceptable
they're literally just playing Survivor with more physical contact yet making less money lol
I mean there's a reason they cast random reailty TV people instead of regular people lol. Does naked and afraid even have prize money?
Omgg Queen Makani Nalu on this!!! #StrandedQueen
I hated her on that show but she's aligning with the underdogs so far so I'm rooting for her to take these b words out in pole wrestle one by one.
Liked the first episode. Excited to see what happens, seems like the ones who are gonna be tougher to beat are all on Missy's side who want to do the challenging but I need to see some people being eliminated in the arena
I have been saying we need missy on the challenge and this just proves it. I don't think I'll watch more because survival shows just bore me. At most I'll skip to the elimination rounds lol
we dont need missy in anything besides this random show no one is watching
We are in desperate need of a villain she fits the bill.
LOL @ Makani. I had no idea she was on Naked & Afraid, let alone multiple seasons AND this show
could they get any more irrelevant Survivor alumnae? Libby and Gonzalez LOL WHAT ?!?!
Missy is doing a great job embracing the savagery of this show lol. She's making for a great villain but I'll be rooting for her downfall as long as it's not just getting sick and being removed
I haven't watched episode 2 yet but she's not the villain for trying to starve them out like they did to her. She's just loud
She's absolutely the villain of this show along with Amal and J to a lesser extent. She was pretty shady in episode 2 without spoiling.
Gonzalez was first boot but made that tribal crazy for no reason lol
I just caught up on episode 4. Y'ALL MAAAAAAAAAAAAAD. WOOOOO TEAM FIGHT IS WHOOPIN THEY *** EVERY SINGLE EPISODE. LMAOOOOO. NOW THE "FRIENDSHIP" TRYNA PLAY VICTIM AND ACT LIKE THEY'RE BEING BULLIED WHEN THEY'VE HAD THE NUMBERS AND RESOURCES SINCE DAY 1. NOW BOTH OF THEIR BIGGEST MEN GONE IN ONE EPISODE. I'm gonna be livid if Libby goes home next episoe cause her dumb *** wanted to fight for no reason and gets injured. I hope that w***tephanie Gonzalez's lame *** with the limp wrist lying down in the ring she's useless I can't stand ha. Makani girl.... where are you?
Jay and Missy for the challenge they are AMAZING together.
The friendship is so unlikable pretending to be the heroes. I can't stand it. At this point I'm ***uming Libby goes home and the rest will make it to the end unless more med evacs happen. I don't see anyone challenging for resources at this point especially the weak *** men left in the friendship. But I hope J takes the cave that would be glorious.
Also Amal for The Challenge she's a boss as *****. We need more LEADERS like her. Imagine the trio coming in and whooping everyone's *** physically and strategically.
Amal and Missy are needed on The Challenge. I love this show
pass
much better than Survive the Raft
Is the only elimination pole wrestle or do they change it up
It's only pole wrestle and it's stilll entertaining every time so I don't want to hear your whining!
i was just about to post how extraordinary survive the raft is. best realtiy show of the year.
